Halloween Ends (2022)
Halloween Ends brings one of the all-time highest-grossing horror franchise to its epic, terrifying conclusion as Laurie Strode faces off for the last time against the embodiment of evil, Michael Myers.
Four years after the events of 2021’s Halloween Kills, Laurie Strode (2023 Oscar winner Jamie Lee Curtis from Everything Everywhere All at Once) is working to liberate herself from fear and rage and embrace life. But when a young man, Corey Cunningham (Rohan Campbell from The Hardy Boys and Virgin River), is accused of killing a boy he was babysitting, it ignites a cascade of violence and terror that will force Laurie to finally confront the evil she can’t control, once and for all.
Halloween Ends co-stars Fangoria Chainsaw Award nominee Will Patton (Silo) as Officer Frank Hawkins, MTV Movie + TV Award Best Villain nominee James Jude Courtney as The Shape, and MTV Most Frightened Performance nominee Kyle Richards as Lindsey Wallace.
Executive produced by franchise co-creator John Carpenter, Halloween Ends is directed by SXSW and Sundance winner David Gordon Green (The Righteous Gemstones, Mythic Quest, and the upcoming reboots of The Exorcist and Hellraiser), who co-writes with the likes of Danny McBride (The Righteous Gemstones), with triple Oscar nominee Jason Blum (Get Out) among the producers.
Described by Green as a “love story” and by Carpenter himself as a departure from its predecessors, Halloween Ends picked up two nominations at the People’s Choice Awards: for The Drama Movie of 2022 and Drama Movie Star (for Curtis).
