Halloween Ends Trailer Teases Michael Myers' Final Bloody Battle

The new trailer for Halloween Ends teases a final bloody battle for Michael Myers, who returns to haunt locals after several years off the scene.

The film, which is released later this year, is the latest instalment of the hugely popular slasher franchise, originally from the mind of John Carpenter. 

Set four years after the events of the previous movie, it follows our long-suffering heroine Laurie (Jamie Lee Curtis) as her life is plagued by Myers once again. 

A synopsis from Universal Pictures says: “Four years after the events of Halloween Kills (2021), 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 spectre 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.”

In the trailer, we get a glimpse of Laurie’s bloody stand-off with her enemy, who can be seen stalking his way through the house – almost silently, apart from his signature heavy breathing through the mask. 

However, as he tentatively steps through a door, he’s met with Laurie brandishing a gun at him, clearly ready to put an end to things once and for all. 

“Come on, let’s go,” Laurie tells him defiantly, before the trailer warns: “This Halloween, their saga ends.” 

A montage shows all the hallmarks of a Halloween film – Myers creeping up on people, lots of people screaming and police running around looking fairly helpless. 

From behind a door frame, Laurie then tells Myers: “Come get me, motherf**ker."

Naturally, he follows through on the order and the two become caught up in a particularly grisly struggle – which, at one point, sees Laurie send a kitchen knife into his hand. 

Curtis spoke about what fans can expect for the third movie back when she was promoting the previous film in the franchise last year – promising something of a rollercoaster ride of emotions for viewers. 

She told UNILAD: “It’s not a message movie, it’s a slasher movie, but I know what happens in the third movie, and it’s going to shock you, it’s going to infuriate you, it’s going to delight you and it’s going to surprise the s**t out of people. 

“I believe that when you look back on all of these movies 20 years from now, even though they are three slasher films in a franchise called Halloween, they will be as beneficial as a history lesson to who we were as a society as any non-fiction, any reportage, any documentary. I think we will look at this art form and go ‘holy s**t, that’s who we were’. 

“And I give all the credit 100 percent, this is all David [Gordon Green] and Danny [McBride] and the other creative elements of the storytelling. That collective group have really done something that I think you will look back on. I’ll be dead, and you guys will be talking about these movies and you’ll go ‘holy s**t, this is really powerful’.” 

Watch Halloween Kills in cinemas from 14 October.
