Trick 'r Treat: Season's Greetings (HD)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Produced at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts Animation Department in 1996, "Season's Greetings" depicts a young trick or treater staying out past midnight to hunt for Halloween candy. It was created using a twist on traditional animation methods, with each drawing painstakingly hand colored with markers then glued to clear animation cels and shot on 16mm film. The mysterious trick or treater, named Sam, later became the inspiration and mascot for the horror cult classic "Trick 'r Treat".

I want to see Sam make a return so bad. It's funny how he's simultaneously wholesome and gruesome.
@HorrorSlasher6 only took 15 years! At least we got a couple of tv shorts with Sam and even Krampus in between tho!
@@fatcat1 what are these shorts? I must see them.
@@Mr.J.RC90 They where like little shorts that got aired during breaks on FearNet, a channel that would show horror movies/shows all day. Just look up Trick R Treat FearNet, but I'm pretty sure they're all uploaded on this account too.
@@fatcat1 you’re great, thank you.
He's like the little boy I never had.
I love the art style on this. You don't really see animations like these anymore
It looks like story book brought to life
Like old Tim Burton
Cus it's old and bad
I felt so bad for him when No one came to the door :(
He was so excited- and then ended up so sad. Bro just wanted candy.
I would have given him all the candy he could eat. He's just so adorable, you can't disappoint Sam like that.
No matter what, Sam will always be the cutest and scariest Halloween villain in my opinion!
Somehow doubt he is a villain. He is more of an anti hero
AGREED 100%
I use his character on my friend's podcast. While he doesn't speak in the movie, I gave the little guy a voice, basically like a little kid.
Maybe I am weird but like the idea that Sam is actually a good guy. He goes around keeping Halloween honest; if you're mean he will scare the crap out of you! If you do something really bad he will take you down! But if you are just out to enjoy Halloween and have some fun, you have nothing to be afraid of.
Always put this on right before watch Trick t Treat on Halloween
This is honestly one of my favorite short films of all time, the gloomy feel is absolutely perfect and you have a great art style.
One of the best animated shorts ever! Atmospheric and darkly funny. It’s awesome
This short predicted the horror film Trick 'r Treat!
@@nickthetrex the true origins of Trick 'r Treat
3:49
That part spooked me cause I didn't expect to hear a kid say "Trick or Treat" in the ending stinger, it's honestly so cool seeing the origins of "Trick 'r Treat" from this short.
I seriously can't wait to see the sequel once it's ready.
He's my favourite little guy!
He looks like Jack Skellington turning into the dark side
I really like the movie, I saw it as a child and see the short film that I finished. And at 17 years old it is still my favorite movie and every time I see it I realize the references and tributes to classic horror movies and I love that.
It’s a horror movie made by horror fans. That’s what makes it so great.
I love this short. It’s drawn well and it’s very atmospheric.
I always rewatch this and Trick 'r Treat occasionally. Favorite movie of all time personally.
The aesthetic and atmosphere of this short is remarkable! I hope Michael Dougherty does an animated full length feature film someday.
All of that could've been avoided if only Sam had gotten some candy.
I never get tired of this, Thank you Mr. Dougherty for putting your literal blood into making of of the all time greatest Halloween mascots ever!
And no dialogue! So much can be told in a story without any words spoken. It's the atmosphere that tells us everything.
Been watching this for years and still love it, Michael! 🎃
I've always kinda envied that as a writer. The ability to tell a story without a single word! It always impresses me
love krampus and trick or treat. hope trick or treat 2 actually happens.
So crazy. I remember seeing this on tv (I believe MTV) back in the 90s (maybe early 2000s) but I was very young. It creeped me out so much. For years I wanted to remember what it was. I always remembered it, then discovered this on my Trick ‘r Treat Blu-ray and my mind was absolutely blown.
The film has been a Halloween tradition for me for over a decade. Can’t believe my first encounter with Sam goes back pre Trick ‘r Treat.
October is coming up, so I had to watch this. I don’t regret it one bit!!!
This is absolutely amazing!!!! I love Sammy so much and watch Trick r Treat every Halloween! I mean, how can you not???
I love this little pumpkin head!!!
💖🎃 💖🎃💖
Bestie I keep finding your comments 💀
@@scoopedidiot2391 bestie…😳
@@onesheart1019 🤭
This cartoon has everything!
This is nice, I didn't knew this is how Trick R Treat was born, now I do. I still wonder how is Sam or what is him becuase I always though he was The Great Pumpkin. Hope there'll be a sequel to film soon.
This was amazing the fact that it was hand drawn and shot it's phenomenal! This was an incredible short film! Especially since it what inspired Trick R Treat!
So... Trick 'r Treat merchandise is back, Michael Dougherty publish months ago something about Sam, Krampus project is finish and it was good as Trick 'r Treat, these may be signals of maybe having something more about little Sam.
I always come back to this short after watching Trick r Treat on Halloween night. Makes for a nice closing ceremony for the spooky season.
My thoughts on the context of what Sam was doing throughout the short was that he already knew about the man from the very beginning when he came across the doll. He saw what happened when he lifted it and tossed his stick to the side knowing a child had been kidnapped and knew the killer was nearby. That's why he pretended to still be trick or treating at midnight knowing everyone was already asleep and knew the predator was already watching him. And then he baited him using his form as a decoy in the alleyway. So that makes Sam a hero in a lot of ways, but not the usual that always saves everyone, just those who he believes is really worth caring about and not subject to the laws of Darwinism. Like in the movie he doesn't save the kid Steven almost buried alive because he didn't check his candy, but he already knew Wilkins fate was due soon anyway and would be there to watch it happen because he despised how Wilkins used his Holiday as an excuse to harm random civilians for his own pleasure.
Innocent yet strong at the same time. Mini Halloween fans don't know this, but he's half Italian and half Irish. There was a festival in Italy called Ferelia and a Celtic Festival in Ireland called Samhian, Sam for short. Is the Gaelic word for Summer's end. Without these two festivals, Halloween would never exist. Never underestimate the spirit of Sam! 🎃🖤💜🧡🍬🍫🍭
The cartoon has the perfect Halloween feel, and the film is even better.
I was looking for this cartoon for ages and i couldn't remember it's name! Thanks man, you're a hero!
I love Sam so much! He’s my favorite part of Halloween. Which is saying something, since Halloween is also my birthday!
Also, a RUclips channel called Creepy TV made a short film called Trick ‘r Treat: Sam’s Gift. I highly recommend it! I thought it was awesome, but you’re the expert in all things Sam and Trick ‘r Treat.
This is going to be my new favorite Halloween 🎃 clip
Goanna watch this every October
Sam actually killed the man in the fight and stuffed his dead body into his bag.
That's what I think judging by the big bag.
This is giving me Scooby-Doo and the goblin king vibes, I do would like to see more of an animation. 😁
Man I wish we could get a TRICK ‘R TREAT II
I remember seeing this on "Cartoon Sushi" on MTV, the night Seinfeld was airing its final episode. i loved it back then, i love it now.
Still waiting for "Sam - The Movie" or something like else. ;-)
It’s almost time to watch my favorite movie of all time trick r treat(Thank you so much Michael Dougherty I also loved your work on krampus)
I love Trick 'r Treat. Happy Halloween season!
I loved it.
I love this so much and I love the watercolor look. I bet this took over a year to make. LOVE!!
Come on, trick r treat 2 please!
I love Sam. We need more Sam!
I like this trick R Treat of Sam Greetings it's my favorite Sam is too my favorite Ever Since Before I Love Sam 🧡🖤🔥🎃🍫🍭 thanks for sharing it's Awesome 👍
I love this short . The creepiness is awesome and very effective .
A true artist.
I wish this was a series, similar to Creepshow
The fact that's your real blood at the end makes it's creeper
Happy Halloween everybody 🎃
Brilliant style
Love this classic short, perfect prequel to my favorite horror movie ever
Sam is so aggressive when he needs to be, he did originate from Ireland after all. Even when he’s in his killing stage, he’s adorable. 🖤🧡💜🎃
I'm being Sam for this Halloween 🎃
Gracias por tan buena película que fue Trik-rTreat
I wish theyd make a animated feature for trick or treat with this same style
Waiting for a new movie of Sam for 14 years
Sam vs Michael Myers movie would be insane. Who is the true ruler of Halloween 🎃
Sorry mom, but Sam's more important than homework
idk how i missed this updated version, looks amazing
i love you micheal
And that's what you get for trying to assault a child in an alley for no reason.
That's what the man thought he was. Samhain is actually an adult spirit using his child form as a decoy so he can roam as one of us. He's technically revealed to be the Grim Reaper in the Days of the Dead comic book.
This is too cute.
So good!
I want a kid like Sam.
Everyone loves me!!
2:29 it's pounding time
We need a return !
Happy samhain🎃🎃
The triangle eye just gave it all away just like they do on everything else in the world 😂
that's awesome!
I bought the Insight Editions book and can’t wait to own the comic adaptation of this !
Sam ❤😊
Sam cute
Hey Michael I got a question for you, if yall make a new godzilla movie I have been thinking it would be great to add desotroyah in for a hyped battle because godzilla never beat him but the tension between them is big because desotroyah has killed godzilla's son
Dear Mister Dougherty, I know you may not see this but I am a huge fan of your work. Trick R’ Treat and X2 bring my favorites. I have had an idea for a Trick R’ Treat fan film. And I was wondering if I had your permission to even write perhaps a script for it?
Very cool : )
I loved this short, how about animate Godzilla?
That was awesome, guess what else was also awesome, why that would be : Godzilla King Of The Monsters!
Thank you for the love of our big guy.

Oh yeah, Oh Yeah
Peace
I’m guessing Sam is short for Samhain?
The art book is one of my most prized possessions. And this short just foreshadowed what a complete treasure was on the way. Kinda proud that it came out my birth year haha
Are you going to come to the trick’r treat haunted house
And also in Christmas there will be krampus haunted house
Good short story
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Also pls respond when you are able to pls
So are there any talks on a sequel to trick r treat. Because if there is I really would like to be involved in it.
IDK this gives me Invader Zim vibes
Mostly the pilot
Could you please make a sequele
You should make another short animated movie with sam also i Heard you annouced trick r treat 2 when can this movie start production because im a huge fan First movie ☺️
I was Sam for Halloween 2019
I have his lollipop and I made is candy bar razor blade I used a snickers bar and a piece of wood and painted it sliver and red
That sounds awesome! I saw a Sam mask at the costume shop a few years ago, but at the time I wore glasses so I wouldn’t be able to fit my head through the neck hole.

So like he was a demon the whole time or he became a demon after he died or something
He's the Grim Reaper posing as a child.
@@tornadocohen neat
Could this be a show
If you ever make a new trick r treat movie I will give you a name suggestion it's. trick r treat the returning
Dear Michael dougherty, I see you are very fond of horror movies and I want to ask, what would you do if the Canadian horror artist who goes by the name Trevor Henderson paid you to produce a movie regarding his most popular monster, siren head?
I wouldn't make it an absolute mess of a movie like you did to godzilla in 2019.
Also, have you watched the new godzilla vs kong trailer?
wtf??
2024 gang
Anyone have any fan theories as to why the man in the shadows was stalking Sam and and attacked him. I know the obvious interpretation is that the man in the shadows is responsible for the disappearance of the kid on that missing child's photo. And that he was hunting Sam because he's a child killer. But what if Sam is responsible for that child's disappearance? What if the man in the shadows knows Sam killed that kid because he saw him do it and decided to take vigilante action to prevent Sam from causing further child disappearances and was stalking him waiting for the right moment waiting for the right moment to pounce. We know Sam has targeted everyone even children who've broken The Sacred Laws of Halloween.
