Michael Myers faces Laurie Strode for one last time, massacring whoever stands in his way.
Mixed bag of feelings, but recommended. I’ll keep this one deliberately short as I’d love you to watch it and decide. I did recommend Halloween Kills (2021) and I recommend this one, too. Halloween Kills provides a great sequel to Halloween (2018) and answers the most significant question of both canonical and non-canonical films: Why does Michael Myers seem invincible… on Halloween day? Respectively, Halloween Ends provides the ending (?) all Halloween films – especially the canonical ones – deserve (?). Maybe, on the way there, you’ll pick on a few “narrative discrepancies”, but no matter what, an end needs to be put to the saga of Michael Myers, who had been leaving behind him piles of bodies and very long blood trails, for a very long time (?). I know, too many question marks.
David Gordon Green helms it one more time, balancing action, drama, comedy, and horror in a way that lets many fans down, and even though some of the “accusations” have a solid basis, some of them are as brutal as Myers. What needs to be said is that Jamie Lee Curtis is still the iconic Laurie Strode who set the solid foundation of the modern dynamic on-screen heroines.
Despite its flaws, I hope you enjoy it. It’s Halloween, and this one seems to be the appropriate film/finale for the “spooktacular pumpkin period” (bad joke, I know).

I look forward to this one immensely. I am really excited and thrilled that it draws a line under everything. Thank you.
