Rules:
- Say “Jack-O-Lantern”
- Halloween cliches

- Product placement
- Flashbacks
Quotes:
- “Your hand is so cold…” said while grabbing a dead man’s hand by mistake while making out at a cemetery on top of a freshly dug grave and not realizing it.
- “The power is the blood!”
- To a cop: “Sometime when you’re off duty, I’d love to pull your trigger.”
Viewer Quotes:

Things We Learned:
- The best way home is right through the cemetery.
Final Take:
This is a solid crappy Halloween movie. There’s a lot going on from the “kindly” grandfather to literally one of the worst stand up comics I’ve ever seen. Highly bizarre and highly watchable… it’s worth checking out.
