All Hallows Eve: October 30th is an attempt to do something different, I'll grant it that. It's about a director who is traumatised by some disturbing events from his childhood, which causes him to make a film of his own experiences as part of the healing process. Unfortunately for him by doing so this stirs up a modern-day evil with implications for all involved.
There's quite a bit of storytelling contained here, all of it rather unusual, but it all boils down to nasties-in-the-woods type scares, so by the end it has all become generic and pointless. This Canadian feature was made on a micro budget, which is painfully obvious in the poor staging, acting, and generally lifeless feel. I can always tell when a film is going to be terrible as it takes half an hour for the opening credits to roll.
