It's Halloween (1990)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Timmy, a lonely trick or treater, is laughed at by the big kids because his Halloween costume is not scary. While looking for a scarier costume, Timmy finds a book of spells and incantations that belongs to an old witch, who must stop Timmy before he casts too many spells. Featuring characters created by Grey Seal Puppets and presented by WSOC-TV channel 9, Charlotte, North Carolina.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
