Halloween Ends is just another run of many potentially interesting and franchise-reinvigorating takes that simply miss the mark.

If there was ever an undertone or theme to this film, it would be how to deal with grief over a few decades, but McBride and Green wrote in a line for Curtis to yell about shaking her breasts at bad things. He continued: “And so then we decided to get playful and see what we could do to surprise each other, and that’s where it becomes Choose Your Own Adventure.The two titans of horror, Laurie Strode and Michael Myers climb into the ring one last time for the showdown of a lifetime… with Corey. Sharing sonic qualities with its predecessor, it gets the basics absolutely right – there’s a huge dynamic and tonal range present in the English Atmos track: bass is deep and driven by the punchy bass notes of the score and diegetic music, while the chunky mid-range delivers a lively score and sound effects track. It may be the end of David and Blumhouse’s trilogy but that doesn’t mean Halloween Ends is the thirteenth and final entry in the series overall. Certainly not the ending Halloween fans wanted for Michael or Laurie, it appears that the desire to make Halloween more than it was has gotten in the way of it being simply what it should.

It's been four years since Michael killed Laurie's daughter, Karen, leaving Laurie with her graddaugther Allyson as her only remaining loved one. Four years after the events of Halloween Kills, Laurie (Jamie Lee Curtis) is living with her granddaughter Allyson (Andi Matichak) and is finishing writing her memoir.Going back to that tunnel location, it’s quiet and creepy with dripping water, echo, and shuffling feet scraping on the concrete for another immersive location example. However, there were two other ideas in mind for the last act, so let’s consider what a Halloween Ends alternative ending may have looked like. She lives with her granddaughter as the town of Haddonfield is somewhat back to a place of normalcy. narratively worthwhile, or universe building arc for him, never mind do anything to leave a lasting legacy on the franchise.
