There has to be room for something a little different, so this year Outburn is submitting our picks for a heavy metal Halloween playlist of tunes.

This is a “killer kid” film, and that means Mikey is also a very, very bad boy. He moves from adoptive parents to adoptive parents, attempting to ingratiate himself into a healthy family life, only to fall back into homicidal habits.
