Following its release in the US, the film arrives on UK digital 19 October, courtesy of Miracle Media.
As the 18th Century English and American nursery rhyme goes… Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater had a wife and couldn’t keep her, so he put her in a pumpkin shell and there he kept her very well… On Halloween, more than two-hundred years later, inside a decaying old biker club on the highway sits a twisted jack-o-lantern, Trick (voiced by McDowell). Pastor Joseph (Busey) believing Trick to be the pumpkin from the infamous lullaby, attempts – and fails – to steal it. Though his warnings are dismissed as madness, a young group of friends are about to discover the hard way that there may be some truth to this paranormal pumpkin tale.
While celebrating Halloween, Ashley (Loren Ledesma) and her costumed friends wind up at the roadside bar, but things take a dark turn when a gang of bikers holds them captive and threatens to torture and kill them. Just as all hope seems lost, Ashley hears Tricks’ voice echoing in her head… is the ancient pumpkin trying to help, or has he got more murderous motives?
Play Trick and Treats this Halloween for a fearsome folklore fable with a torturous twist.
