Hubie Halloween is a 2020 American horror comedy mystery film directed by Steve Brill, co-written by Tim Herlihy and Adam Sandler, and features an ensemble cast consisting of Sandler in the title role, Kevin James, Julie Bowen, Ray Liotta, Rob Schneider, June Squibb, Kenan Thompson, Shaquille O'Neal, Steve Buscemi, Tim Meadows, Maya Rudolph, and Ben Stiller, with the latter reprising his role from Sandler's 1996 film, Happy Gilmore.

It pays tribute to actor Cameron Boyce, who was set to co-star, but died in 2019 due to epilepsy causing Karan Brar to appear in the intended role instead.

In Salem, Massachusetts, Hubie Dubois, a friendly, but dimwitted and cowardly delicatessen employee, is bullied by most of the city, and the victim of many practical jokes.

They falsely report suspicious activity in one of the cars (who turn out to be trick-or-treaters driven by Mr. Hennessey to throw eggs at Hubie).

The dog defecates and eats his own feces while Hubie attempts to interrogate and confront him, runs into the haunted house and he chases him inside.

Walter's real name is Nick Hudson and Richie had escaped to bring him back to the mental institution, which they refer to as the werewolf treatment center.

One year later, Hubie is married to Violet, is the new mayor of Salem, and his new foster kids are going trick or treating dressed like people they know.

Kelli Berglund, Kevin Quinn, Bradley Steven Perry, Lilimar and Amber Frank respectively play the Billie Eilish girl, the Pennywise guy, Cormac, Coco and a female zombie band singer.

[5] In July 2019, Hubie Halloween was announced as Adam Sandler's next film as part of his Netflix deal, with Happy Madison regulars Kevin James, Julie Bowen, Maya Rudolph, Steve Buscemi, Rob Schneider, Tim Meadows, Colin Quinn, Blake Clark and Shaquille O'Neal as part of the cast.

[6] Cameron Boyce, who had starred alongside Sandler in the Grown Ups series, was set to feature in the film, but died in July 2019 from complications of epilepsy just days before shooting.

[8] Principal photography began in July 2019 around Salem, Lynnfield, Hamilton, Marblehead, Danvers, Tewksbury and other parts of Massachusetts,[9][10] wrapping in early September.

The website's critics consensus reads "Viewers immune to its star's charms won't find it much of a treat, but Hubie Halloween is sweet enough to satisfy fans of Adam Sandler's antics.

[16] David Ehrlich of IndieWire gave the film a "B–," praising the cameos and saying, "Are those details enough to make Hubie Halloween much better than all the other content Sandler has churned out for Netflix so far, or am I just drunk on the movie's pumpkin-spiced production design?
