Ep. 91: TRICK 'R TREAT (2007) Fairies and Face Slippers

Abbey is back from maternity leave! This month we're discussing everyone's favorite Halloween film (don't deny it!) Trick 'r Treat (2007). Specific triggers for this episode: child death, menstruation, having or not having children, post-partum depression, caring for the elderly, vaccines, autism, elders in peril, and children in peril. There are also sirens going off in the background at one point which may be upsetting for some. --- BUY SOME MERCH: https://goodmourningnancy.myspreadshop.com/ --- Thanks to Lily LeBlanc for our theme song: www.lilythecomposer.com --- Resources: Don’t Disrespect Halloween Tradition in TRICK ‘R TREAT (2007) by Paul Ferrell https://scriptophobic.ca/2020/10/27/written-in-blood-trick-r-treat/ Time Traveling Critic: Trick r Treat (2007) Review by Michael Henley https://www.google.com/amp/s/ttcritic.wordpress.com/2012/10/30/trick-r-treat-2007/amp/ 10 TRICK ‘R TREAT FACTS FROM DIRECTOR MIKE DOUGHERTY by Michael Walsh https://www.google.com/amp/s/nerdist.com/article/trick-r-treat-facts-director-mike-dougherty/%3famp 31 Things We Learned from Michael Dougherty’s ‘Trick ‘r Treat’ Commentary by Rob Hunter https://www.google.com/amp/s/filmschoolrejects.com/31-things-we-learned-from-michael-doughertys-trick-r-treat-commentary/ Patiño’s Lores and Myths in Film: Trick ‘r Treat (2007) by Chris J.
