On this week's episode of The Golden Briefcase, Tim & Jeremy are joined by Mike Dougherty, director of Halloween flick Trick 'r Treat, to discuss their latest picks of the week, cover new Blu-Ray releases, chat about trailers for Dark Sky's Unknown and John Cameron Mitchell's Rabbit Hole, discuss listener voicemail and much more! The main topic of the night was all things Halloween Films & Traditions. The guys chat about some of their favorite films to watch during Halloween and some traditions during the holiday season. They also talk a bit about the making of Trick 'r Treat and how its since become a fast-growing cult classic!

The Golden Briefcase is also broadcast LIVE on Tuesday nights starting at 7:30PM (PST). You can listen in via our Ustream page or by visiting our own live page right here on FS. The podcast is just as fun to listen to live while it's being recorded, with plenty of special guests, so I suggest you tune in the next time it records!

Trick r' treat was NOT a good—least of all "entertaining"—movie

@1, Trick R Treat was awesome!!One of the better movies that gave off the perfect vibe for halloween!!Name any movie for the past 25-30 years that's given us that same vibe? I wonder is Michael Dougherty is still doing that Calling All Robots film for Disney?
Jarrod

^disagree. Not sure where you get that impression. It was a perfect Halloween film and one i plan to share with everyone i know every single year!

Yea, I agree with everyone else. Trick 'r Treat is one of my ALL-TIME favorite Halloween flicks. It's my tradition to watch it every year on Halloween, it's so damn good. Anyone can dislike anything, but it's one of my favorites and a lot of others seems to love it, too.

I was disappointed in Trick 'r Treat but it had its moments. Not a "must watch" Halloween movie though.

Your download link is to episode 32 not 33. You might want to fix that.

Trick 'r treat had a charming Halloween vibe to it. I really dug it!

"record"... why not just say "rec" like everyone I know?
http://firstshowing.net Tim Buel

REC is an abbreviation for Record. I think REC sounds downright retarded by itself haha.
ryderup

Hehe. I understand what it stands for. Maybe it's only here in Sweden we just call it "rec"? never heard anyone say "record" here. But english is not our first language
