He falls to the floor and looks up to see Sam appear from the other side of the bed. Kreeg then screams as something stabs him from under the bed. Suddenly a jack-o-lantern, set on a table in the corner, starts spewing flames, bathing the room in orange light and revealing words scribbled all over the walls and ceiling: trick or treat, give me something good to eat. With his shotgun aimed, he pulls back the blanket to see a mechanized skeleton hand. Kreeg looks into his bedroom and notices something moving under the covers. He cautiously walks up the stairs and inches slowly down the hall leading to his bedroom. Kreege flips on the stairway light, it flashes and blows out as he sees a small figure run by in the upstairs hall. Kreeg notices the doggy-swing door is swinging and hears noises upstairs. Spite continues barking, now looking upstairs. Kreege sees that his entire yard is decorated with dozens of jack-o-lanterns. Kreege runs to the front door and opens it. After finishing the finger that Wilkins threw over to him, Spite runs back inside and continues with the barking at the front door. Spite continues to bark in the back yard and Kreeg goes to investigate where he has his conversation with Wilkins in Halloween Tale 1. Since there is nothing on TV that doesnt have anything to do with Halloween, Kreeg turns it off and hears Spite barking before seeing an egg hit his window. He takes a bite out of a candy bar but, disgusted with it, swaps it for a bottle of liquor. He collects the children's dropped candy bags and retreats inside where he proceeds to burn old pictures in his fireplace before settling in his chair to watch TV. He calls out to his dog, Spite, and picks him up to remove the monster costume and glowing head piece. The children run away as the monster chases them across the yard and Mr. Two glowing eyes appear and growling is heard. It opens to pitch darkness and they nervously hold out their bags. Three trick-or-treaters walk up the porch of a dark, old house with no Halloween decorations and nervously knock on the door. This story presentation includes most of the dialogue Really, Sam is a good boy driven to bad things by the people who stray from the code of the holiday that created him.Trick 'r Treat - 2007 | Story and Screenshots By his own code, he’s never killed anyone that didn’t deserve it. Even in allowing those deaths, they were always towards people who had broken his rules. Even if you break the rules, Sam grants his victims the chance to redeem themselves, and will even stop his death mission when the person begins adhering to the rules (even if that’s while he’s stabbing them.) He’s consistent in his intentions and beliefs, fair in his execution, and even extends a kindness to other Halloween lovers, such as the children on the bus by letting them exact revenge on the man that killed them and letting Rhonda get revenge on the people who bullied her. And really, he makes it so easy to avoid that punishment! All he wants is costumes, candy, pumpkins, and respect. For him, that means punishing those who forget the traditions that keep Halloween going. All he wants is to keep the spirit of Halloween alive. He’s not malicious or murderous just because. In this sense, Sam is incredibly fair he gives his victims a chance to change their ways, and will leave them be if they learn their lesson. Kreeg was following the rules, and Sam saw no need to kill him since he was no longer breaking his code. He realizes Kreeg was no longer in violation of the rule, and we see Kreeg handing out candy later in the film. Though, as soon as Sam is able to retrieve a candy bar from Kreeg’s lap and eat it, he leaves Kreeg be and moves on. After all, he did kill a bus full of children and burned his memories of them on Halloween night. While Sam was originally after him for not handing out candy, it’s safe to say that Kreeg was in fact in violation of Sam’s fourth rule demanding respect for the dead. Kreeg ( Brian Cox)? Well, Sam himself didn’t kill him, but the zombies he raised did. The trick-or-treaters that stole and smashed jack-o-lanterns and terrified Halloween lover Rhonda ( Samm Todd) with a cruel prank were eaten by zombies Sam raised. Emma ( Leslie Bibb) is murdered and turned into a yard decoration for not wearing a costume, not handing out candy, and blowing out the jack-o-lanterns. All of his victims in the film are killed for one of these reasons. Unlike other horror villains that may stray from their stated ideals or motives, Sam only goes after people who break one or more of his four rules of Halloween: always wear a costume, always hand out candy, never blow out a jack-o-lantern before midnight, and respect the dead. First, Sam completely adheres to his rules.
