Trivia: The ghoulish, child-like creature "Sam" is named after "Samhain" - an ancient Gaelic festival marking the end of harvest season. Samhain eventually ended up becoming the holiday now known as "Halloween."

Trick 'r Treat (2007)

Trivia: The movie was originally scheduled to be released in theaters in October, 2007. Its trailer was even attached to several films. However, the studio pulled its release at the last moment with no explanation. It was finally released direct-to-video with little advertisements or notice two years later. Ironically, despite being dumped onto home-video with little fanfare, the film garnered excellent reviews and won several awards, and built enough of an audience through word-of-mouth alone that director Michael Dougherty confirmed a sequel will be made.
