The Town Without Halloween

Ultra low budget gateway Halloween horror centered around kids battling lil rubbery creatures that resemble ghoulies and a scheming mayor out to ban the town from celebrating Halloween.

The Halloween vibes are strong as there's Halloween decor in pretty much every scene. The lil creatures reminded me of something you would've seen in late 90s/early 2000s Full Moon. It's sorta charming in an after-school Halloween special kinda way. I give it some cred for the Halloween aesthetic and wholesome vibes.

The Halloween vibes are strong..The Halloween vibes are strong ...The Halloween vibes are strong!

"The Town Without Halloween" is an absolute gem of a film by Jacob Ennis. Ennis masterfully combines a nostalgic homage to classic horror with a fresh, imaginative twist that left me spellbound and wanting more.

The atmosphere is electric, perfectly capturing the eerie yet oddly enchanting vibe of a town who's Mayor wants to get rid of its beloved Halloween traditions. The cast delivers stellar performances, bringing depth and relatability to their quirky, lovable characters. Shout out to scene stealing actor TJ Moreschi who was my personal favorite.

The film's cinematography and score are breathtaking, enhancing the sense of unease while keeping viewers on the edge of their seats. Ennis has truly outdone himself, crafting a film that is as thought-provoking as it is thrilling. This is a must-watch for any lover of horror and indie films alike. Keep an eye on the new comer George E. Bonilla.

I was pleasantly surprised by Jacob, Innis and Gregory Brock on his project is really nice to see them do something outside of horror and gore. I really felt this was a very fun movie and my children really enjoyed it very much. Hope to see them do more outside of horror. I thought the acting was really good and the photography. The direction was top-notch as usual. I have to say this is one of my favorite projects Jacob has done since Kill Granny Kill but my favorite is still Stash !!! My favorite quality about this film is how it felt a lot like the book goosebumps it really brought back a great 80s 90s vibe.

A Town Without Halloween is an Indie Film that feels like it came straight out of the 80's. If Halloween Town and Gremlins had a baby this would be it!

The film doesn't take itself too seriously and that really helps sell the light hearted fun vibe of the film. Directly from Disney's playbook the parents are ignorant dummies and it's up to the kids to save the day and keep the baddies from ruining Halloween forever!

While some of the acting is a bit rough, for a Kids/Family movie it's right on par. I will say there are a couple swear words and it might get a bit dark at times for younger kids. But overall A Town Without Halloween is a fun family friendly film!

"The Town Without Halloween" is a charming and imaginative film that brings a fresh twist to the spooky season.

The film successfully blends lighthearted humor, a sense of nostalgia, and an important message about the importance of tradition, community, and fun. Its quirky characters, vibrant visuals, and heartfelt moments make it enjoyable for both children and adults.

Overall, "The Town Without Halloween" is a delightful family-friendly watch that captures the spirit of Halloween in a unique and heartwarming way. Perfect for those looking to enjoy something beyond the usual frights, it's a film that reminds us of the magic of October 31st.
