Trick 'r Treat is a 2007 American anthology horror comedy film written and directed by Michael Dougherty and produced by Bryan Singer. The film stars Dylan Baker, Rochelle Aytes, Anna Paquin and Brian Cox. It relates four Halloween horror stories with a common element in them: Sam, a trick-or-treating demon wearing orange footie pajamas with a burlap sack over his head. The character makes an appearance in each of the stories whenever one of the other characters breaks a Halloween tradition.

 Despite being delayed for two years and having only a limited number of screenings at film festivals, the film received much critical acclaim and has since garnered a strong cult following.

 Tales of Halloween is a 2015 American comedy horror anthology film consisting of ten interlocking segments, each revolving around the titular holiday. Segments were directed by Neil Marshall, Darren Lynn Bousman, Axelle Carolyn, Lucky McKee, Andrew Kasch, Paul Solet, John Skipp, Adam Gierasch, Jace Anderson, Mike Mendez, Ryan Schifrin, Dave Parker and, in his film debut, Jack Dylan Grazer.

 The film premiered on July 24, 2015, at the Fantasia International Film Festival, before receiving a limited theatrical release and through video on demand on October 16, 2015, by Epic Pictures.

Back in Time: 2019

As I noted in the previous Back in Time article, it seems kind of silly that we put out a “best of the year” list at the end of each year and then just walk away, as if we never watch another movie from that time period again. I watch older movies all the time. Just a few days ago I watched a movie from 1929 that makes me totally re-evaluate that list (as there are now two films on it). So why…

Tread Paul Solet USA, 2020 ★★★

A man and his ‘Killdozer’

“Tread” (documentary; in theaters and on disc/streaming Feb. 28, 2020; not rated; directed by Paul Solet; run time 1 hours, 29 minutes) is the real-life story of Marvin Heemeyer, who – depending on your perspective and a variety of other factors, like how you feel about guns, government and religion – was either a hero or a delusional sociopath. Director Paul Solet doesn’t make that decision for us. Instead he lays out both sides of the “this actually happened?” story, through Heemeyer’s manifesto cassette tapes, recent interviews with those involved, and home footage/photos and dramatic recreations of the events that transpired. Heemeyer was a military veteran and accomplished welder who moved from South Dakota to Granby, Colorado in the early 1990s. Those who knew him, including a woman he was romantically involved with, described him as a likable guy, a man’s man who enjoyed classic muscle cars, snowmobiles and guns. His former girlfriend says he was larger than life and that she felt safe with him. That would change. Heemeyer, wanting to open his own muffler shop, purchased industrial land in Granby for $40,000 at an auction. According to him, that rankled a man who was wanting the lot for a concrete batch plant. The man, Cody Docheff, had connections with the most powerful men in the small (population less than 2,000) town. What ensued was a drawn-out feud with officials over zoning decisions, one that escalated when Docheff purchased an adjoining tract and built his concrete plant. At each turn, Heemeyer felt victimized and denied his God-given rights. He says, on one of his tapes, that he had an epiphany one night while sitting alone in his hot tub – God wanted him to get revenge on those who had wronged him. God’s plan was for Heemeyer to purchase a behemoth of a bulldozer at an auction in California, bring it back to Granby and spend about 18 months turning it into a tank (later dubbed “Killdozer” in the media), fortified with thick steel and concrete and equipped with high-powered rifles and a camera system so he could see out of the thing. Heemeyer was convinced this was what God wanted because the tank fit through his garage door by mere inches. On June 4, 2004, Heemeyer didn’t use that garage door to exit the building with his monstrosity – he plowed right through the walls. He then went on a well-planned rampage of destruction, starting with Docheff’s plant. Other targets includes businesses owned by town board members and town hall, which just so happened to be above the library, where kids were enjoying activities before local law enforcement was able to evacuate the building (a tank covered in steel and concrete doesn’t move quickly). Remarkably, no one died, though Heemeyer fired upon police officers and tried to shoot large propane tanks. His bulldozer, as it was starting to overheat, got stuck on the edge of the basement at the town’s hardware store. Heemeyer killed himself inside his contraption. The scenes of the bulldozer plowing through anything in its path are chilling. You can feel the frustration, even 16 years later, in the voices of police officers who were given the impossible task of trying to disable Heemeyer’s tank. Much of the movie is about what transpired leading up to that June day, and it’s sad to listen to Heemeyer descend into what most would consider madness, though among certain groups of people he is seen as heroic even today. His targets try to paint themselves as innocent victims in their interviews, and collectively they seem believable, but even if they aren’t, were Heemeyer’s actions justified? The entire situation seems like a pointless fight to be the alpha male, waged by big fishes in a little pond, and Heemeyer was convinced God wanted him to be the biggest fish. Heemeyer had a chance to sell his property for $400,000, but he decided this time it was personal. One wishes a voice of reason had gotten inside his head. “Tread” ends rather abruptly, only a few minutes after the story of the rampage ends with Heemeyer’s suicide. I wanted to see more about how the incident changed the town, or some input from a mental health expert or local religious leader. Solet’s film does a solid job of telling a remarkable story. He tells it without judgement, though he leaves that as a possibility for his audience. My rating: 79 out of 100.
