This October, Halloween Ends.
The first trailer for the third and final(?) chapter in David Gordon Green's Halloween trilogy debuted last month, and Universal Pictures (via FearHQ) has now followed-up with a brief teaser promo spotlighting the seemingly unstoppable Michael Myers and the equally relentless Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis), as they prepare for what is being billed as their final showdown.
Halloween Kills was generally seen as a disappointing follow-up to 2018's well-received revival, so fans of the iconic horror franchise will be hoping Green concludes his trilogy in satisfying fashion.
Oh, and just in case you thought this slasher sequel might swerve us all by going PG-13, Ends has been officially rated R for “Bloody horror violence and gore, language throughout and some sexual references.”
Check out the video below, along with the recent trailer and a detailed synopsis.
After 45 years, the most acclaimed, revered horror franchise in film history reaches its epic, terrifying conclusion as Laurie Strode faces off for the last time against the embodiment of evil, Michael Myers, in a final confrontation unlike any captured on-screen before. Only one of them will survive.
Icon Jamie Lee Curtis returns for the last time as Laurie Strode, horror’s first ‘final girl’ and the role that launched Curtis’ career. Curtis has portrayed Laurie for more than four decades now, one of the longest actor-character pairings in cinema history. When the franchise relaunched in 2018, Halloween shattered box office records, becoming the franchise’s highest-grossing chapter and set a new record for the biggest opening weekend for a horror film starring a woman.
“Four years after the events of last year’s Halloween Kills, Laurie is living with her granddaughter Allyson (Andi Matichak) and is finishing writing her memoir. Michael Myers hasn’t been seen since. Laurie, after allowing the specter of Michael to determine and drive her reality for decades, has decided to liberate herself from fear and rage and embrace life. But when a young man, Corey Cunningham (Rohan Campbell), 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.”
