In today’s episode of Talking Movies with My Mom, we’re celebrating Halloween with a "trick" and a "treat" movie. But which one is which? 

First is "The Haunting," starring Liam Neeson, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Owen Wilson, and Lili Taylor. We speculate on the superpower of a white, flowy nightgown, question how many effects it takes to make a good horror movie, and discuss how sometimes losing your head is the best outcome.

Next up is "Trick ‘r Treat," starring Anna Paquin, Dylan Baker, and Brian Cox. We talk about creepy anthologies, the joys of divine retribution, and Halloween hatin’ harassers.
