Weekly ‘Flix Fix takes the legwork out of wading through thousands of film choices on Netflix, bringing you the most truly bizarre, quirky and outright amazing gems instant streaming has to offer.

There is a fine line between a Halloween movie that hits the nail on the head and a Halloween movie that is so ridiculous it just becomes a joke and waste of two hours. Luckily, the movie “Halloween Night” does not fall into the latter category.

A relatively unknown film, “Halloween Night” relies on basic concepts instead of bringing out the well-known celebrities to make a genuinely scary movie that will leave you fearing every future Halloween party you attend.

The film jumps right into the year 1982 and the chilling murder of a family. Right after the murders, Chris Vale, a family member who was spared, is wrongfully convicted of murdering his family.

He is then forced to go to the insane asylum as opposed to a typical jail based on the fact that Vale was suspiciously found with the bodies by the police the night of the murders.

The movie then flashes forward 10 years and shows Vale escaping the asylum. Having spent the past 10 years going in circles with the authorities trying to prove his innocence, he has now become somewhat insane. He then returns to his old home on Oct. 31 in search of clues to prove his innocence.

Despite there being a new family in the house hosting a Halloween party, Vale enters the home and begins his search for clues. What happens as his search continues will leave viewers peeking through fingers and turning down the volume in order to avoid hearing the chilling sounds that will stay with them for days after.

For having a budget of just $75,000 and no well known actors on its credits, this movie successfully strikes fear without being too cheesy or unrealistic. It is definitely a must-see and should be seen on Halloween night for maximum scaring, as it will leave paranoid thoughts of “What’s lurking around the corner?” on Oct. 31.

If the film alone is not enough to strike fear, perhaps knowing it was based on true events will.
