Being more ambitious than most films in the horror genre, Halloween Ends also perhaps falls on the wrong side of the divide between being scary in a fun way and being distressingly plausible.
IF YOU ARE NOT A HORROR FAN THEN LEAVE IF YOU ARE A HORROR FAN THEN STAY THERE SOME People WHO ARE DISLIKE HORROR AND THERE IS SOME People WHO LIKE HORROR AND THERE SOME People WHO DON'T LOVE HORROR AND THERE SOME People WHO LOVE'S HORROR THERE IS MORE People WHO LIKE HORROR MORE THEN People WHO DISLIKE HORROR !
It’s maybe disingenuous to say this, but the shift in tone and quality is so extreme that it feels as if Green has been let off his leash a little and allowed to make something far more in tune with the insightful, intimate, sensitive dramas upon which he made his name.
Halloween Ends is far from a great finale, but it’s a decent showcase for Jamie Lee Curtis, whose place in film history has long been assured because of this role. Will this be the last we see of Laurie Strode, or the “Halloween” storyline? It’s best to wait for the box-office reports. After all, franchises never die — they just change shape.
The scares are sad, puny little things. Even Jamie Lee Curtis seems to have lost the will to fight. It’s time that Myers and his mouldy old mask were laid to rest. Let’s hope nobody decides to disinter him yet again.
It can’t end well. In fact, it ends badly. In every sense. The mystery of Myers has long since become deflated and inert, and when he is unmasked, the camera can’t quite be bothered to show us his pointless old face (unlike the unhelmeting of Darth Vader in Return of the Jedi, which did at least show us what the great villain looked like). The only thing that’s scary is the thought of how long this has all been going on.
A completely different direction, and something unique in the genre of slasher horror. If you somehow did not get your fill of bloody violence and terror at the hands of Michael Myers in the previous entry, Halloween Kills, you will probably find this movie lacking. However, if you're willing to accept a more slow-paced thriller with a new take on the Halloween mythos, you'll probably really enjoy this movie. This feels like the kind of movie not made for general audiences, but could become a cult classic in ten years.
Horror movie that claims to be the last movie of the series made in 2022. None of the episodes that have been called the last so far have been final. So a year or two later it could be retranslated as "Halloween Paranormal" or "Halloween Reincarnation". There's no peace for Michael without killing Laurie. In this film, for the first time, Michael trained a student. It was the first time he had the mask stolen. It was the first time he was beaten by someone else. It's the first time he's killed fewer people. And for the first time he's left without a mask. But for the first time, I can't say he died. Because he died dozens of times. He cannot die no matter what "he lives in our hearts".
I'm also very curious how Michael sneaks into the houses. Think about it, the man who always moves slowly is dealing with a lock pick or something in front of the door. Or when you look there, you look again and it disappeared in 2 seconds. Does he run away with his heels hitting his butt at that time?
Going back to the movie, I think it was a simpler-than-expected ending for a phenomenon serial killer. I would have expected a more striking and satisfying ending for a series that lasted more than 40 years. He nearly died of natural causes, and Laurie would be paranoid from waiting year after year. Before I finish my writing, I cannot help but say that I have always been a fan of the soundtrack of the film. I got goosebumps when I heard it after the opening scene. I am a fan of this movie.
There is no sex or nudity in the movie.
Halloween Ends squanders the potential of some interesting ideas and a really tense and creepy opening prologue. The rest of the film is every bit as dumb as bricks as its direct predecessor, Halloween Kills.
The "last" Halloween movie, directed by David Gordon Green, is entirely irrelevant and mismatched. I would even say it's boring. Maybe it will succeed at the box office with the power of the corpus, but 20 years from now, it will not be a film to be remembered. I don't think they even want to be remembered anyway. The only benefit of the film, whose frivolity is felt almost at every moment, other than upsetting the audience, is that it will make a lot of money for Blumhouse. But I think this is another piece of news that should worry us audiences because Blumhouse has been far, far from producing anything "quality" in the last few years.
