‘Jaws’ Bites Back into Theaters and Scares Up Over $3 Million for Labor Day Weekend
The end of the Laurie Strode saga, Halloween Ends is coming to theaters AND Peacock on October 14, and USA Today has shared a new action shot from the movie this morning.
David Gordon Green‘s films frequently reference the original Halloween in fun ways, and this latest shot is a clear callback to Laurie Strode stabbing Michael Myers with a knitting needle way back in 1978. Only this time around, Michael is the one wielding the knitting needle.
Check out the new image above and expect more – a new trailer, perhaps?! – soon.
In Halloween Ends…
“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.”
Here’s the official plot synopsis for Halloween Ends: “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.”
Nick Castle, the original Michael Myers, had recently noted that Halloween Ends will be a “surprising” conclusion to David Gordon Green‘s trilogy, while makeup effects artist Chris Nelson similarly teased that the third installment in the trilogy is “weird” and “different.” And John Carpenter had also called the new movie a “departure” in a recent interview.
Halloween Ends will also feature the return of Will Patton as Officer Frank Hawkins, Kyle Richards as Lindsey Wallace and James Jude Courtney as The Shape/Michael Myers.
