Sandler has a lot of friends in Hollywood and nowhere is that more obvious than in the cast of Hubie Halloween, which is littered with big name stars.

Alongside Sandler himself, the film features his regular collaborators Kevin James (as a local cop), Steve Buscemi (as a mysterious monster) and Rob Schneider (in a supporting role).

Boston Legal star Julie Bowen also appears as Hubie's crush, appropriately named Violet Valentine, while Academy Award nominee June Squibb plays his mother.

Hubie Halloween plot

For many years, local man Hubie Dubois has tirelessly spent Halloween ensuring that the people of his small hometown are safe and happy.

However, his efforts are largely mocked, to such an extent that many of the residents actually go out of their way to wind him up on the annual holiday.

But on one fateful year, Hubie discovers real monsters causing havoc on Halloween, but to his frustration none of the townsfolk believe him.

As a result, it falls on him to become a hero and save the town from a mysterious supernatural threat.
