Halloween Ends on October 14 - in theatres and on streaming.
Universal (via FearHQ.com) has announced (via a video featuring star Jamie Lee Curtis) that the third and final(?) chapter in David Gordon Green's slasher trilogy will follow its predecessor's release pattern by opening day-and-day in on the big screen and on Peacock.
This may seem like a surprising move, but it's worth noting that Halloween Kills performed very well when it followed the same release strategy during the pandemic, so the studio is clearly attempting to replicate that success.
Check out the video below, along with a new poster featuring Laurie Strode and Michael Myers preparing for their final confrontation.
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.”
