OK, so we knew there was going to be an ending. We just didn’t know there'd be, like, six endings. Honestly, after a while I stopped keeping count of each time I thought “Halloween Ends,” ballyhooed as the final, no-really-we-mean-it-final installment of the “Halloween” saga that began with John Carpenter’s 1978 classic — or at least for star and producer Jamie Lee Curtis — was finished.
In any case, nobody can seem to quit Haddonfield, least of all Strode, so it is there, once more, that we begin this third installment of the trilogy by David Gordon Green, which was meant to follow directly from the original, ignoring all the intervening sequels and reboots. In case you missed any, there’s a handy recap from Strode herself, as narrator.
Strode, whom we see typing out her thoughts a la Carrie Bradshaw, spouts a bunch of psycho-babble about individual responsibility to resist evil, which coming from anyone but Curtis would sound utterly absurd — but her resourceful presence has been the main reason to watch this franchise since her first babysitting gigs in 1978.
Speaking of Myers, of course he’s back. We won’t tell you where and how, but no one will be shocked, because it always comes down to the last 20 minutes or so of epic, biblical confrontation between him and Strode. On Halloween. Obviously. The only difference this time is whether we can believe that this ending — well, these six endings — are really it. There does seem to be some pretty incontrovertible evidence here that someone, and we won’t tell who, would have a hard time returning.“Halloween Ends,” a Universal Pictures release, has been rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America “for bloody horror violence and gore, language throughout and some sexual references. “ Running time: 111 minutes. Two stars out of four.
