Go To

1* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: After losing his hand when a freaked-out Mike Kankel cuts it off rolling up the window of his truck, Uncle Fred turns to the nervous crowd.
2--> '''Uncle Fred''': Anybody else want a piece of me?
3* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: [[spoiler:Curtis Danko's statue. It was shaped like Uncle Fred, someone that he admired. Instead of taking his revenge out against Michael, he just wanted to show off his work.]]
4* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler: Mike Kankel. Causing the accidental death of Curtis Danko was bad enough, but he continued crossing lines by making up the phony curse and causing the entire town to stop celebrating Halloween, especially when it resulted in their chocolate factory being shut down, crippling the town's economy and leaving a vast majority of the people unemployed. Furthermore, it robbed the town of 20 years of Halloween, preventing many people from having fun for so long. On top of it all, this act also caused the Walker Family to be reviled due to Uncle Fred's unintentional part in Curtis Danko's death, resulting in them being ridiculed, hated, and bullied by the entire town. The fact that Coach Kankel shows no guilt over what he had done just adds more to it.]]
5* NightmareFuel: The idea that Curtis Danko died by being trapped in a kiln and it being turned on with him in it. [[spoiler:It's even worse when it turns out that Michael and his friends locked him in there in the first place and the janitor accidentally turned it on while he was mopping.]]
6* RetroactiveRecognition: Brittany Byrnes, who plays Dayna, would go on to play Charlotte in ''Series/H2OJustAddWater''.
7* SpiritualSuccessor: ''WesternAnimation/ParaNorman'' can be considered one to this film as their plots both involve a protagonist who is the town outcast for reasons beyond their control, a curse, a zombie uprising related to said curse, [[spoiler:and the twist of the supposed villain just being a misunderstood kid]].
8* {{Squick}}: When Uncle Fred is dressed as Cheesy the Clown, he drops his fake hand out down the front of his pants and offers $100 if a kid finds the hand. Remember, he's an old man ''and'' a zombie.
