Critics Consensus

Fast-paced savagery and a memorable twist aren't enough to make up for Trick's slavish devotion to superior slasher films of the past.

Anton Bitel

Sight & Sound

leave[s] us, much like the characters in the film who attend the all-night horror-thon, worrying about just who might be sitting around us in the theatre - because, as Jayne puts it, "any one of your costumed moviegoers could be your killer".

Rex Reed

Observer

A it's a cheesy, actionable rip-off of the John Carpenter Halloween franchise with plenty of blood and jack o'lanterns, but without a shred of originality.

Rated: 0/4

Noel Murray

Los Angeles Times

One whopper of a plot-twist briefly gives "Trick" an original hook. But by the end of the picture it's clear the filmmakers aren't really interested in exploring any of the potentially interesting sociopolitical implications of their big surprise.

Ghastly Grinning

Trick is savage, brutal and twisted in all the best ways. It's a razor sharp, slick as hell return to form for Lussier and an absolute must see for any fan of the slasher genre.

Cinema Crazed

Trick is a fun Halloween film for fans of slasher films may they be hardcore or casual; it's gleefully violent and doesn't make apologies for it.

Rated: 4/5

Mostly boring. A couple cool brutal scenes, but honestly I fell asleep halfway through out of boredom. The Tom Atkins appearance was cool, I guess, but his acting seemed contrived. The film was average length, but felt like it went on forever, pretty typical modern "horror" film with bad acting and a snooze fest plot.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Scream wannabe. Adding Jamie Kennedy in the cast was'nt enough to have a scream vibe.

Pleaasseee this movie sucked! Not enjoyable unless you LIKE pulling your hair out from frustration. The majority of the movie was uninteresting and borderline nonsensical Cop's investigation. And then any crumb of suspense or danger was simply because the characters lacked common sense to the point it was hard to watch. Not even funny-bad actually.
