AICN EXCLUSIVE! New Image From TRICK ’R TREAT!
Mike Dougherty is, it’s safe to say, a big Tim Burton fan.
And I don’t mean that as a knock. I think Mike’s got a twisted sensibility that is all his own, but he strikes me as a guy who saw Tim Burton’s success and thought, “Oh, thank god... there’s room for me in this business.” Mike’s a cartoonist, and his macabre drawings have a hint of Edward Gorey, a touch of Charles Addams, a dash of Tim Burton. He loves drawing monsters and pumpkins and creepy crawlies in ways that are one part scream, one part laugh.
Can he do the same with a feature film? That’s certainly what Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures are hoping with the release this October of TRICK ‘R TREAT, a film that’s been described as “GO, but with supernatural elements.” Four stories, all taking place on on Halloween night, with a cast that includes Anna Pacquin, Dylan Baker, Brian Cox, Leslie Bibb, and Quinn Lord. I hear the film doesn't actually intermingle the storylines as much as initial descriptions made it sound like, though. Still... intriguing.
There are a few images from the film online now, including the film’s creeeeeeeeepy teaser poster if you go by Mike’s MySpace page, but we’ve got an exclusive one for you today.
CLICK TO EMBIGGEN, IF YOU DARE!
I’m sure we’ll have a lot to say about this one before it hits in October, but for now, enjoy what looks like a shot from Tim Burton’s THE SWEET HEREAFTER.

...just wanted to deflate any potential firsters, if such haven't already slipped through.

...I don't know anything about this film, but the description sounds pretty great. Will check out more when away from the workplace (which blocks MySpace). Thanks for the tip.

i'm a huge fan of all things tim burton (especially nightmare and corpse bride), and i love halloween but hate most contemporary horror movies, so this looks right up my alley.

not sure about mr.daugherty being a cartoonist or whatever, but not crediting the proper artist's for their work irritates the piss outta me. this is clearly an image done by none other than breehn burns ( note the b for the signature ) the acclaimed comic artist on the steve niles book "Aleister Arcane" he was then hired as a concept artist for this film. just wanted to clear that up and maybe expose some more people to his fantastic work.

And cameo's with Gene"money whore" $immons and Ozzy"granpa munster" Osborne? And an all metal soundtrack by Fastway? And spandex, makeup and cheesy glam-metal explosions and fireworks and Sluts-n-Skirts and........

I predict this movie will be a surprise hit. He likes Harold and Maude. A lot of directors inspired by Hal Ashby have gone really far. Hmmm...

Whats wrong with the leaf brush? Cause its a preset? So does that mean i cant use the 5 pxl hard brush cause its a preset? This piece is beautiful....don't hate. And i dont think the average movie goer is gonna be like "ohhh leaf brush...this must suck"
