Erin (Elle Newlands) hasn't been all that successful with the male of the species lately, so the last thing she wants for Halloween is to spend it at a party with one-night stand Donny (David Banks) she just couldn't get rid off since - and that's exactly what her friends Ben (Chris Pentzell) and Julie (Christine Blackburn) coarse her into when they invite them to their big Halloween party. To keep Donny at a distance, she picks up Mason (Frank Gangarossa) and asks him to accompany her, not knowing that he's not just some dude dressed up as a homeless person for the occasion but an actual homeless person who was just passing by. Of course Mason says yes, as this means free food, and at first Erin is even charmed by him, but then she finds out that he might actually be homeless, and when Donny finds out, all hell breaks loose. But that's only one of the stories that goes on at the party, because it seems that everybody brought their problems to the occasion, even the hosts who feel they have lost touch with their own daughter (Brooklyn Palmer) despite their best efforts.

While Halloween Party actually is about the creepiest holiday of the year, it's actually a rather sweet film, basically a romantic comedy in story - but with the whole cast in enjoyably silly costumes, some intentionally crude humour, writing that aspires more than to just fulfill the clichées, a directorial effort that picks up on all this, and a cast uniformly up to the task make this a rather entertaining little romp!
