Earlier this year I was blown away by the slasher "Terrifier" (2017) and when I discovered that Art the clown, the maniacal killer, had already appeared in a feature length movie, that is All Hallows' Eve, I just had to see it. And I was not disappointed!
AHE is an anthology, three short stories, all featuring Art, plus naturally a wrap around story. It's Halloween, we have a baby sitter looking after two excited kids, Night of the Living Dead is showing on TV (a regular occurrence due to it's public ownership status) and a mysterious VHS tape (a format that I still enjoy watching) which features said stories.
Each one is sick & twisted, there is gore galore plus dare I say actually quite scary in places. Yes the budget is very low & the special effects aren't very special, but this is a movie that deserves much credit for the skill, effort & passion put into it by it's makers. Obviously it isn't everybody's cup of tea but personally I loved it and hope to see more of Art in the future.
Had originally scored this 8/10, however after a repeat viewing I have down graded to a 7. Still good, but nothing more.
