Summary
It’s Halloween in the small Midwestern town of Shudderville, where on each of the preceding seven Halloweens one or more teenagers has been stabbed, slashed, bludgeoned, strangled, dismembered, disemboweled, or otherwise killed in a really icky way. The killer remains at large. Undaunted, high schooler Anna and her slightly flaky friends Sue and Joanie make big plans: a fabulous party, then a Halloween midnight concert by the boy group pop sensation 5 Cute Guys. But in the tradition of all stories which feature teenagers rebellious in the face of evil, it goes horribly wrong. A local TV reporter turns up butchered in the Shudderville cemetery, kicking off the mayhem on this night of madness and murder. Can the innocent but resourceful Anna survive desertion by her girlfriends, terrifying Halloween “tricks” by her dim-witted guy classmates, and the defenestration of Gramps only to single-handedly face down the maniacal Halloween Killer? No. But fortunately, she doesn’t have to meet the killer alone, for one of the 5 Cute Guys shows up at her house just in time to help thwart the evildoer, then whisk Anna off to the concert as his guest. If you thought Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Scream were crazy/scary fun, watch audiences enjoy a real killer Halloween!
