- I really disliked Halloween Ends. I loved Halloween 1978 (which I thought it came out in 79 but I guess it didn't) 2018 and Kills, but Halloween Ends was not for me. #halloween #halloweenends #moviereview

The amount of disappointment I felt during this movie can't even be quantified
First time I've heard another person describe it like this. Perfect.
Me too. Never have I been so disappointed in a movie in my life especially going into it more excited than any movie in my life.
The amount of disappointment I felt after viewing this movie is astronomical
Micheal in Halloween Kill: *demolishes an angry mob like an absolute giga chad*
Micheal in Halloween Ends: *gets beaten by both a teen that got bullied by band geeks and also a 70+ year old Laurie Strode all because he hasn’t killed anyone during the time-skip, which made him “weaker”*
I guess we owe Revenge, Curse, Ressurection, and RZ Halloween 2 a apology as at least they actually had Micheal as a character instead of a cameo 💀
What really frustrates me, is think about this - They actually said in the movie that sometimes he would drag people into the sewer and kill them. So he still got a few kills in between movies. Also, even if the explanation is that he needs to kill to sustain his strength, why did he come out of a 40-year hiatus at the beginning of Halloween 2018 able to tank through everybody, get hit by cars and get back up again, and survive a house that's burning down just to take out everyone in kills? It just makes no sense and it's very obvious they didn't plan this direction at all earlier on and just didn't know how to end the series. I left the movie very angry and disappointed, and I probably was too invested in the story about a guy who goes around in a Halloween mask killing people, but you know these movies were very special to me and even kills is and so it felt like they really just didn't care about the movies nearly as much as people like you and I do. I guarantee our conversation here puts more thought into Michael Myers lore than the entire time they spent writing Ends.
@@DegenerateJay I thought the "killing makes him stronger" thing was stupid and like the curse of Thorn shit.
Ur being ridiculous, ends was bad but not worse than resurrection. Corey is 20-23 y/o not a teen at all. Laurie is younger than michael by 4 years being 61 whilst Michael Myers is 65.
@@kainkong274 cool
The badness of Halloween ends doesn't automatically mean that revenge, curse, resurection and rib zombie's H2 don't suck anymore!
And the added insult to injury is the appallingly dishonest marketing. The movie is called Halloween Ends. Michael Myers and Laurie Strode feature front and centre on the posters. All the marketing, the trailers, even Jamie Lee Curtis' social media were pushing this as the big showdown, the big final fight. You can't blame people for being mad at not getting what was explicitly being sold to them.
Thank you.
I think it could’ve been a fine movie if it weren’t tied to 2018 or Kills, but this film as the closing of this franchise is absolutely ridiculous.
It was actually a fine movie and very original. The problem is just that though...it has the halloween title with very high expectations for what they advertised as it being the final showdown. They slap a different name on and make Michael someone else as the mystery boogeyman and it definitely would've been praised. The stakes and expectations were just to high to be "divisive" on a finale.
@@Son-Of-David1990 it would not get High Praise because the movie spent his whole fucking time with Corey and he wasn't in the Final Act, he was a dead corpse. If you're going to spend that much time on a character, how can you not have him at the end🤷♂️🤦♂️
Blumhouse had the potential for a gold mine after Halloween (2018) then immediately dropped the friggin ball with the sequels.
@@raidengoodman8754 shit if they wanted to do a sequel, here’s my idea, after 2018, he’s dead, the only thing left is a mask that is miraculously a bit more than ash, while most people are happy he’s dead, there’s a contingent of people who decide they’re going to fuck with Laurie, wearing Myers masks, stalking her and her family, and a select few decide to kill townsfolk, to “keep him alive”, while Myers is dead, Halloween is never truly over, Laurie will never live in peace
I disagree. Despite the stupid characters, I think Kills was a very fun and enjoyable sequel. Ends however…
I actually really enjoyed Kills for how stupid it was
Ends is just so disappointing
2018 is overrated. Especially when fans are riding the hype and believing the tagline that it's the best one since the original. Even better than the original Halloween II. I rank it somewhere after Halloween 4. Equal to Rob Zombies first Halloween. That was big and a lot of people liked it too, just like H20 it was promoted as the best one since II it was a success and critically acclaimed but years later it's one of the least talked about Halloween's and isn't perfect neither. It uses the same exact music in Scream, he's wearing 3 obviously different masks. Him holding his hand out was almost as dumb as him shedding a tear in 5. He seemed weaker in H20 than in the 4 movies before it. Resurrection Myers was better but all people remember about the movie is Busta Rhymes
I liked Halloween kills but Halloween ends was absolutely horrible
I agree with what Jeremy Jahns said that Halloween ends should’ve been the 2018 film. It has a perfect ending with him burning in the house, Laurie has closure with the man who killed her friends and traumatized her. Kills was fun but given that it ends on a cliffhanger and this is meant to be the “satisfactory conclusion” to the series, 2018 is my Halloween ends
Kills was a lot of fun actually. And they DID have an entire different script before the shutdowns for the third film. They were originally going to film Kills and Ends back to back and they were all going to take place in the same night. Then the shutdowns happened and everybody had too much damn time on their hands... so we ended up with this horse shit. The original ending of Kills was Laurie calling Karen's phone from the hospital only for Michael to pick it up and just breathe... then Laurie says "I'm coming for you Michael". It was SUPPOSED to pick up from right there. But, since they decided to re-write the entire movie so the theatrical version of Kills just ends right after Michael killed Karen. So stupid. Ends COULD have been like H20 but on steroids with Laurie hunting Michael down but nooooope. And their fight could have been so much more believable because he DID sustain damage whether or not he was totally human. Ends made me enjoy Kills less, which is why I am mad that the movie even exists.
I’m a massive fan of the 78 original and the 2018 “sequel”, but this ain’t even a popcorn movie, this is a “I haven’t felt this bad since Josstice Leauge” movie
I agree
Totally agreed. It felt like they just threw darts at a random concept board in the writer's room. I loved KILLS so let's just pretend it ended there so we can get through life.
Maybe now people can appreciate Halloween Kills.
Amen to that.
I am going to pretend they ended it with Halloween kills actually
Kills was horrible. Hawkins was mad at Michael bur Sartain is the on who stabbed him and ran over him. The flash backs were meaningless. Horrible trilogy
Kills was better than ends
Kills was better but that’s not high praise
We’re not looking back at Kills thinking “wow it was actually well-written”
We’re looking back at Kills as the lesser of two terribly written sequels
That Thorn Trilogy is looking sexy right about now
Ha, Ha, Ha! - I wonder how many people didn't get your reference. In fact, I heard at one point that the writers of the THORN Trilogy wanted to make a connection to SEASON OF THE WITCH which was HALLOWEEN 3. - James D. Watkins, artistic director of PHOENIX PRODUCTIONS.
I want a third rob zombie movie over this movie
"Written from a 15 year old from wattpad" now im in love with this channel
Damn right!
This was David Gordon Green SLAPPING Halloween fans in the face! Michael & Laurie’s conclusion seemed like such an afterthought. They didn’t even have Laurie react with a facial expression when she realized someone else was in the house after Allyson left. And I can’t believe how underused both Frank and Lindsey were, especially her since she’s the original actress and character from 1978. I was so hoping for a huge, MASSIVE, long chase & fight scene with Michael vs. Laurie, Lindsey and Allyson at the end throughout the whole house AND that abandoned house next door with all three women surviving. I think it would have been a very powerful ending for the three of them considering how Michael impacted each of their lives.
So many missed opportunities.
I've been praying that DGG will come out soon and just say "gotcha" and was trolling us and that he's got the real version ready to be released.
No shite ans thats how this film was promoted
@@Son-Of-David1990DGG is a hack
I wish you'd written it! That sounds great!
Didn't react? Did we watch the same movie?
10:30 was my biggest problem.dont make sense. He got up after they beat him senseless just to take them all out. Now if he just disappeared without killing the mob then it would make sense....but no he was very much super triumphant and gave us the impression that he will be "more dangerous" and totally bait n switched it. That's what irritated me. They go to say he don't have powers yet, he shakes all violently when he killed Doug. It's just very contradicting
They should have had Michael walk off into the darkness at the end of Kills after murdering the mob. No going back to his house and killing Karen.
24:13 I think the main problem with Ends is them deciding to do a 4 year time jump. Originally the whole trilogy was going to be set the same 2018 Halloween night. But Covid caused Kills's release to be moved to last year and Ends to this year. Whatever the original plans for Ends were Corey probably wasn't a thing in them.
Hopefully they release their first ideas... always go with your first gut instinct!
Yet Halloween kills came out last year and took place in same night 2018 so blaming covid-19 doesn't begin to excuse them
@@jarrodedson5441 exactly. Why couldn’t they just still film it as the same night?
honestly i don't think it would work. laurie was badly injured so she definitely couldn't fight michael. and allyson had a broken leg so she couldn't do anything
I also felt like this movie was made in contempt of Halloween
I disagree that Allison was likeable, she was insufferable. She meets a psychopath and chooses his crazy ass over her grandmother after knowing him for a few days. Her character is useless.
Totally didn't get how she was instantly infatuated with Corey. You'd think she'd be more guarded after what she went through.
Yees! She should b smarter going threw 2018 and cling on to her family especially with Lori and yet this twit goes with the one person that was absolutely the worst person she could ever this point even had a relationship with! I like d her until thiscpoint, bad writing cringe. So many missed opportunities.
@@joeychicago6322 Just the fact that they were instantly in love was so not believable. Allyson gave him the "fuck me" eyes in 2 seconds. And let's not pretend that Corey is some hunky dude with great looks. In fact, in some scenes I think he's kinda unpleasant to look at LOL! But, the fact that Laurie hooked them up... the idea that she just so happened to introduce and set Allyson up with the ONE guy in the town destined to take the mantel of Michael was the most plot convenient shit I've ever seen. Like... what are the odds of that? Astronomical. God, this movie sucked so much ass.
@@MikeSparrowand then the relationship lasted 6 days too
Michael is actually on-screen for a total of 10m55s in Halloween Ends (2022), while his screen time in the original Halloween (1978) is only 9m37s. So he gets 10% of the screen time in Halloween Ends (2022) at a runtime of 111 min.; and 11% of the screen time in Halloween (1978) with a runtime of 91 min.
But we had no doubt who the original movie was focused on. Everything surrounding Michael and all that happened was still leading us to Michael. This movie focused on Corey and MM was put on the back burner. Big difference in writing and storytelling
It’s not about how long he is on screen. In H78 his presence is everywhere. You’re always wondering where he is. In End we knew he was in the sewer waiting for Corey to come back. Completely different. In Ends he’s a glorified plot device.
To piggy back off of what these guys said ☝🏾Michael Myers is mysterious and a monster in 78' while in Ends he's old weak and washed up so his on screen appearances have very different impacts
@@mjwillgotskills I completely agree…I hated ENDS and how Myers was used in that film. I was simply addressing the claim in the video that Michael had less screen time. I did point out in my original comment that his percentage of screen time in Ends is less than that of ‘78, in relation to each film’s runtime. If anything, I was confirming that ENDS not only mishandles Myers but also wastes the minutes that he had on screen…I was just compelled to point out the factual inaccuracy. If a legitimate analysis is to be made regarding the quality of the film and the complete misunderstanding of the Michael Myers character, then Myers screen time should not be a point of reference. If someone wants to provide a legitimate argument, you shouldn’t present ideas not relevant to your point. Feelings are not facts.
Difference is in the original you feel Michael”s presence the whole time in ends you knew he just in the sewer like a npc
I hated Halloween Ends. They built up the threat of Michael so much in 2018 and Kills. Laurie went on a speech, saying things about how Michael seems unstoppable etc.
Then we get to Ends and Corey beats him up, taking his mask. Why introduce a new character right at the end of the Blumhouse Halloween story? I can't wrap my head around this movie. After watching the two films before it, you would never think it was going to go in this direction
To sum it up: embarrassing for Michael’s character and aura
I can't even begin to say how disappointed I was with this movie. Even though I knew it got bad reviews (of which I read none of them), I had to see it through after 42 years of my life invested into Michael Myers. Nonetheless, I found myself actually debating leaving the theater 3/4 of the way through. I came to see Michael Myers wreak havoc on Haddonfield and he and Laurie battling it out to the death. Instead we got almost an hour and a half of moping Corey becoming a serial killer. It was insulting to all fans of Michael Myers to have him become virtually a back burner sub plot in a movie that is supposed to end a legacy. Unbelievable.
Same story but my sister buddy and I did leave after 30-40 minutes finished it at home on peacock and we're glad we left. Horrible
You need to Rewatch this Film several more Times 💯💯✅️✅️
@@Turtlepower1987. I'd rather watch my trash can for free.
As far as I'm concerned, H20 was the best ending for the franchise. With one chop, both Michael and Laurie went out with a lot more dignity
Did you forget about Resurrection…
@@kylein9869 Nope. It just didnt happen. Like Alien 3 or Terminator 3
@@LukeLovesRose Haha good point
I hated this movie. Left the theater wanting a refund after loving 2018 and Kills. The plot just doesn't do it for me and the lack of Michael and botching of his character pissed me off the most. It's the finale, the end of laurie and michael's story, why is the main villain not here?
I'm no famous professional director or screen writer but here's what i personally wanted from this.
Have everything play out the same until the moment that Corey meets Michael. Michael is weakened and doesn't have the energy to kill Corey due to his wounds so Corey escapes.
Corey starts to overthink and starts planning in his head. He knows that it was Michael Myers in there and he is weak but he remembers how monsterous he is. If he kills him, he would be redeemed in the eyes of the town and be a hero. There is also the chance it does nothing and he will still be ridiculed for his past even after killing Myers or he could be killed the same as anyone else who tried to take action against the shape. It drives him crazy and makes him jumpy and distant knowing he has a big choice to change his life but is uncertain what to do.
He goes to kill him but Michael doesn't put up any fight. Right before he takes the shot, the cop who thinks he is alyson's bf comes in to settle the score for what happened at the diner. As he overpowers Corey, Michael saves him and kills him. Corey sees this and has a new plan. Thinking nothing would change, he instead seeks revenge and since Michael saved him, he thinks he can gain his friendship and control him to kill for him. This leads to him visiting Alyson at work alot and stealing medical supplies from the hospital.
Over time he heals Michael and his relationship with Alyson continues to grow suspicious instead of loving. Corey starts luring his abusers and bullies to Michael who then kills them one by one, somehow growing his strength back. This success makes Corey grow somewhat of a god complex which Laurie sees so she confronts him and this adds her onto his hit list. He gives a proposition to Michael that he will lead him to Laurie, knowing he wouldn't be able to lure her to the pipe, and hearing Laurie Strode's name, something clicks in Michael's head. He finds the strength to exit the pipe and Corey is ecstatic.
Michael goes on a killing spree with Corey through Haddonfield again in search of Laurie who is planning to go after Alyson who wants to leave town with Corey. Corey also feeds Michael false info to continue killing those who he hates like the radio guy and his mother while on the search. Alyson finds Corey and confronts him on why he is acting even more strange than before and Corey spills the beans and tells Alyson who in shock tries to get away. Corey knowing this could ruin his plans kidnaps Alyson and uses her to lure Laurie to a trap where Michael will be able to corner her.
Laurie confronts Corey at the kid he killed's old house and explains he sees no problem killing those who wronged him and that they were no better than him for their actions. He enjoyed killing the kid and everyonr else. They ruined his life so he will take theirs. Laurie states he is just as evil as Michael. After a struggle, Michael shows up as Laurie is injured and Corey in a high on power tries ordering him to kill her. He instead kills Corey for Michael is smart. He took an easy kill on the cop and after seeing Corey bring him supplies, be goes with it so he could USE Corey to aid him while he was weak by bringing in victims and giving him medical aid. All so he could get well enough to finally go back after Laurie to settle the score.
This leads into a huge brawl between Michael and Laurie, both well beyond their primes. After a car chase and struggle similar to halloween 4, it leads to the radio station where police are investigating a previous murder that michael and corey committed. She tries to use the radio to alert everyone in town Michael is back but he slaughters the police in the area and attacks, causing the station to catch on fire. This leads to the roof for the final battle. Laurie is almost killed but Alyson with a vengeance manages to pummel the weakened Michael badly with a pipe for taking everything she cared about from her parents and life to the boy she loved. Laurie takes this advantage and stabs him repeatedly until his hand is severed from the blows. With both of these people wailing on him, Laurie takes his mask and we see his face. He is broken and defeated from the fight in his weakened state and without his mask just a person. Michael falls unconscious and as Alyson goes go finsih the job, Laurie stops her and says they need to make a statement.
Everyone from around town comes down to the station after Laurie contacts Barker who I still alive after being on another murder scene and he spreads the word. The citizens then approach where they see Michael tied to the radio tower in chains in the form of a crucifixion as it burns. They all watch as the evil of Haddonfield burns on the tower and as Laurie watches Michael look at her one final time with his evil eyes before the inferno takes him, she throws the mask in as well destroying the legend that was Michael Myers.
Just my idea, not everyone's cup of tea but this is what I wanted and was expecting. I am glad some people did like the movie though. .
the movie was starting to look like a lowkey Lifetime love story about Corey and Allison b/c of how dragged out their storyline was. at one point i forgot it was a movie about michael meyers until corey keeps visiting him in that damn tunnel like he's a side piece! come on! i understood what the writers were trying to do, but still. :/ you would think they want to go out with a BANG, but they went with this and we are left to analyze the movie like it's a college critical thinking thesis statement b/c of how poorly executed it was. :(
It's 78...Not 79 Jay.
I know some people get a guilty pleasure out of this one but I don't. I feel no pleasure, only guilt
I don't even know where to start here.
To put it bluntly: Blumhouse Productions, David Gorden Green, Danny McBride, Chris Bernier and Paul Brad Logan have took a huge dump on the Halloween Franchise for the fourth time with Halloween Ends. I'm really not sure if this Franchise can recover from this disaster again.
The makers of this film put Friday the 13th Part 5: A New Beginning (1985), Jason Goes To Hell: The Final Friday (1993), A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge (1985) and Christine (1983) in a blender. Mixed those four films together with the worst elements of Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989) and Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995). Thrown in a dash of Halloween H20 (1998) and voilà!
The result is Halloween Ends and it's gloriously awful.
And yet this new Halloween Trilogy got off to a good start with Halloween (2018). Yes, it stumbled with Halloween Kills (2021), but Halloween Kills was just a bridge movie in this trilogy. That had been a big problem.
Halloween Ends isn't just a big slap in the face for these two movies, oh no!
This film is a huge slap in the face to the entire Halloween Franchise. It doesn't feel like a Halloween Movie at all! It's just boring, frustrating and disappointing. So many new characters are introduced in this one. All have zero personality, are simply one dimensional and a bunch of assholes. I didn't like the Corey storyline at all. It had ZERO Pay off and was just pointless!
Allyson is all over the place in this film. Her decisions made no sense and were completely contradictable to her character in comparison to the previous two films. Not to mention how annoying and unlikable she became in Ends. She really reminded me of Scout Taylor-Compton's Laurie Strode from Rob Zombie's Halloween 2.
Michael Myers himself (when he appeared) seemed bored, disinterested and tired. To add insult to injury, he was completely disrespected in this movie. You really want me to believe that some 24 years old douchebag who was bullied and beaten by some high school bullies, can beat the f*cking Michael Myers and steal his mask? Are you serious with this bullshit?!
Heck, when this movie FINALLY decided to be a Halloween Movie, I was about to walk out of the theater.
Not even the Kills are good in this movie imo. How can you screw up so much with something so simple!
Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode is the only shining light in this awful film. She's the only thing stopping me from giving this movie 0/5 stars.
If David Gorden Green really wanted to "Season of the Witch" the Franchise then he should have NOT bring Laurie and Michael back in Kills and Ends. He had the opportunity to give those characters a nice send-off in 2018 but he didn't do it. He is a hack! I have absolutely no interest now in his Exorcist Reboot Trilogy. His Halloween Trilogy is so inconsistent. Like he and Danny McBride can't decide whether or not Michael Myers is a normal human being or a supernatural entity. In Kills, Laurie said and I quote: "I always thought Michael Myers was flesh and blood, just like you and me, but a mortal man could not have survived, what he's lived through." Then in Ends she says and I quote: "I thought maybe you were the boogeyman. No, you're just a man [...]."
Is he supernatural or not? David Gorden Green and Danny McBride be like: "Who knows, who cares!"
Halloween Ends (2022) gets 1/5 stars from me. Worst movie of 2022 so far for me.
I can deal with a badly made movie that has bad writing and bad acting as long as it's still entertaining. The worst thing a movie can do to me is if it bores me and waste my time.
Halloween Ends did that to me.
I have never left the cinema so speechless, confused and angry at the same time.
It's by far the worst movie in the Halloween Franchise. Yes, it's WORSE than Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989), Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995), Halloween: Resurrection (2002), Rob Zombie's Halloween 2 (2009) and Halloween Kills (2021).
I'm dead serious! I would rather rewatch those movies than this piece of shit ever again because at very least those movies felt like actual Halloween Movies to me, even so they suck.
I HATE Halloween Ends.
After this travesty, whatever other studio who will own the rights to this Franchise should really just do Halloween Anthology Movies.
Do what John Carpenter and Debra Hill envisioned for this Franchise to become after Halloween II (1981). It failed with Season of the Witch in 1982 but now it is the right time to do that in my opinion.
Michael Myers character is so played-out at this point that I don't think a new Reboot with him will be any successful, especially without Jamie Lee Curtis.
Even if they will bring back Danielle Harris as Jamie Lloyd and make a direct Sequel to Halloween 4 and delete Halloween 5 and 6 from the timeline, so what? They gonna f*ck it up again!
They do it everytime! Everytime they made a decent or a good Sequel to the 1978 Original or 1981 Halloween II, they immediately do a Sequel/Sequels that ruins everything.
They did it with Halloween 4 which was ruined by Halloween 5 and 6. Then with H20 which was ruined by Resurrection and now with Halloween (2018) which is ruined by Kills and Ends.
This makes 3 strikes now. You're out!
As far as I'm concerned the Story of Michael Myers ended with Halloween II (1981). Michael Myers died in that movie with Dr. Loomis who sacrificed his life and died in a blaze of glory.
Well said bro I agree 100 percent with everything you said about this movie. Definitely the worse Halloween film ever made, and that’s saying a lot considering we have dumpster fires like part 5 and Resurrection.
I literally fell asleep halfway through with Ends. The Corey storyline was boring and I don’t see the point of focusing so much on him just to have him killed in a generic way by Michael in one of his rare appearances on screen. That made no sense to me.
Michael’s death was very anti climatic too. They should’ve ended the franchise at the end of ‘18 when he was burning in the basement cellar. Having him come back as an unstoppable beast in Kills then becoming a weak, fragile man in Ends is ridiculous.
Fuck Ends.
I had my 4 wisdom teeth taken out last year. Half my mouth is still numb. Screwed me over completely and I was told it may never go away lol. Oh well.
Could have been worse, could have spent money seeing halloween ends
@@jamespaul6315 LMAO 🤣🤣🤣
Lawsuit?
This movie was so bad and great intro background it matches how goofy this entire movie was 💀
I felt like Michael just didn't matter to this movie at all. Yeah he held down Corey and made him go berserk but other than that he just sort of doesn't do much at all.
This is the Star Wars Sequels again, where the first film is the perfect set-up, the sequel splits the fans both ways, but ends with a great opportunity to go anywhere, and make the third film the best in the trilogy, then they go absolutely nuts, and just totally f**k up the third film beyond comprehension, lmao. How has this happened twice now?
Edit: Made this comment minutes before he read my mind, lol.
I am also very disappointed in the film and most of all in Jamie Lee Curtis. I hope it's a flop and it really doesn't have much to do with the Michael Myers cult. I grew up watching the movies and I hate this Halloween Ends script. I compare it to Terminator and I would prefer the actress to Jamie Lee Curtis because she appreciates the role of the cult Terminator more. I know the interviews of both actresses and was also initially a fan of Jamie Lee Curtis but she often has something to criticize and I think she worked a lot on this script and I'm angry because Michael Myers wasn't the main character but Jamie Lee Curtis and She didn't like the acting role in the first Halloween film and even in Halloween 20 years later she felt fooled that the films continued and she killed the wrong person but she did it for money and I would have preferred she had gotten out before but she's really a good actress. I'm for Michael Myers and it give a Petition for a Halloween ends reshoot.
bro those skits had me wheezing love you jay and jill!
Halloween 2018 and Halloween kills were both good movies
Halloween ends was an atrocity
Makes total sense to be paranoid about a serial killer that has been locked in an asylum for 40 years after he killed like 4 persons and then after he escapes and kill 30 including your children, you decide to stop worring about him even when he is free in your own town.
I'd honestly rather watch a sequel of Brightburn than subject myself to Halloween Ends again lol.
Well now hold on... Wait a minute here...
@@DegenerateJay At least Brightburn had some potential. A moody adolescent who knows nothing about the world suddenly gets superpowers and decides that he’s a god. That’s a good starting point for an arrogant bratty character that evolves over time, they just forgot the character growth part. Brandon should run around doing unnecessarily destructive shit for a little while, then have him get launched 80 feet through the air with anti-air missiles. Show him getting his ass handed to him by all sorts of tank rounds, missiles, fighter jets, and so on. Make him realize that just being “superior” doesn’t hold a candle to being highly adaptive like humans are. Basically give him the Vegeta treatment lol
100% agree with you guys. Ends was absolute rubbish. I was expecting it to be at least on the level of the first two movies, but I was not expecting it to be *that* bad. Completely disrespected and emasculated Michael Myers, arguably the OG slasher of modern slasher movies. How the script got the stamp approval from numerous producers is beyond me. A total WTF moment.
I 100% agree with you! Out of the three movies from this trilogy I enjoyed the 2018 movie the most.
I agree especially since Halloween 2018 had the best ending I absolutely hated the ending to Halloween kills I was not impressed Karen never should’ve died I was so heartbroken I loved her but somehow her husband is dead too last time we checked he survived
Jw. What are you referring to as 1979? You mean 78 right?
Yeah I was off by a couple months unfortunately
My one sentence review of Ends: Welp, Halloween III no longer has the stigma of being that one Halloween movie that’s NOT about Michael Myers.
Btw, I was mostly indifferent about Kills until the end when Michael hulks up and unceremoniously dispatches legacy characters. That’s when I was deeply offended (as a fan of 40 years going back to the first movie). It’s truly depressing and baffling how progressively worse and worse this trilogy got.
Literally only a few great scenes in this movie. The intro, when Corey goes into the sewer the first time, the "Scarecrow" mask scene, Corey's rampage through town, and the ending. On it's own, I liked the ending. The problem is the lead up to it. The majority of the hour and 30 minutes you have to wait until you get to the ending just make it worse. Like, I love the idea of Laurie finally getting the best of Michael on her own. Pinning him down with his own knife, as well as a knife of her own, then dropping the fridge on him to further pin him down, then slitting his wrist and his throat, then proving to everyone he's finally dead by parading him through town, and throwing him in a woodchipper. I think that ending would have been GREAT if they had EARNED it! But Ends did NOT earn that ending. It felt like another bridge movie like Kills, except this had an abrupt ending that ensures a fourth movie will not happen (or fifth movie, if you're talking about the whole timeline, not just the 3 new ones). There are good ideas in this, like Michael transferring the evil to Corey, and if THAT made him weak, I could maybe buy it, but they need to show that happen first. And they didn't. He and Corey team up to kill a couple of people, and then he's somehow even weaker. Like, sure, Corey kicks his ass because he's weaker, BUT he's somehow strong enough that he manages to nearly kill Laurie in the end anyway? And she's only saved by Allyson coming in and breaking the arm Michael is using to choke Laurie. This movie could have worked if given another hour of runtime, but they chopped it into an hour 50. They need to do a Snyder Cut-type of edit of this film. Go back, do some re-shoots, add in a BUNCH of extra content, and give us the Halloween finale we deserve. Because this was an absolute trainwreck. I walked out somewhat satisfied, but after coming home and thinking about it, I started to realize how bad it was. And then I thought maybe I'm crazy, but nope. Everyone else hated it too. So yeah, they need to pull a Snyder Cut and do some major re-shoots. Especially before something happens to the main cast, given how old a lot of them are.
While I do have a lot of criticisms with the entire trilogy. I feel like a lot of them can be tied back to the trilogy feeling inconsistent. From little details such as the events of this film taking place years later, whereas the other two films were about the same night. To more major details such as the other two films very strongly implying Micheal Myers being a character with supernatural abilities, to him being just some powerless old dude in the final film
I agree with your opinions on Halloween Ends I very much preferred Halloween Kills and 2018 along with the original also a video request could you do a review for the Black Adam movie?
yeah, i feel the same wy about the movie. it was a waste of time. i left the theartre thinking like "wtf was that sh*t?!?" (it did not help that i was beaten up by a group of my bullies on the way home.)
Wtf fr?😂 bruh run up on them niggas once you see em again. And just sock their jaw hard asf. And dont be a pussy either just do it bro. Break their jaw too fuck. Ong yo fuck them niggas up bro
Also ima sub to you
What is “79” ???
I'm coming around with my opinion on it. I was in the middle at first. I'm a die-hard Halloween fan. I own every film so I know that I'm well versed on what I enjoy from a Halloween film. It was a good movie, but not a good Halloween movie. I think that this would have been a great Halloween film if it was made as an anthology film much like Season of The Witch. I don't think it should have been the conclusion to what we have been building for. I don't appreciate how they treated Myers, but there were some elements that I liked. Like I said before. If this film came out separately away from this trilogy it would have been pretty good, but as the conclusion I think that's where it truly failed.
Ay i agree yo.
There was a fake Leaked plot where corey takes Micheal to the junkyard and nurses him back to health
I feel like that would have been a lot more interesting. I'm fine with Corey but I don't think he should have stuck around. Ends should have been a sad movie that focused on coreys corruption and death if they wanted it to go that way leading to another full powered Michael Myers movie.
Laughing at the title before watching. 😂
Why mm is my favorite horror villain is because I find him the most compellingly scary, at least conceptually. The shape is haunting because it has no motive; it is evil unfiltered and pure. It's that lack of motive that makes him almost supernatural, as if something not of this world broke into our reality on Halloween and chose an innocent child as a vessel. Simply the blackest eyes. For me, that's who Michael myers really is, and that's when his lore is at its' peak imo.
He's not a mentally challenged momma's boy like Jason. He's not a perv after his own desires like Freddy. He's not inspired by scary movies like Ghostface. Etc, etc.
But in this movie, the babysitter is full of motives. His obvious motives made his victims all the more obvious and mundane.This could've been an interesting movie if it had nothing to do with the Halloween franchise.
That's just one major problem I have with this film as part of the Halloween franchise. I don't have the number of texts to type all the other ones 😅
I didn’t mind the movie itself. I do however think this movie is extremely misplaced in this film series. This movie feels more like a good 4th or 5th movie. This movie doesn’t feel like the end of the the trilogy DGG and Danny started. I love the idea of trying something new and fresh but it was billed as the conclusion to H1 H18 and kills. It ultimately didn’t feel that way at all. I think this movie will be fine if it’s viewed as a spinoff type movie. Not connected to The 3 before it.
Fantastic review! The movie truly was DIRE!
This movie reminded me of Nightmare on Elm Street 2. Both of the movies deal with a young man who is struggling with internal darkness, and being influenced by an infamous killer.
The biggest difference was that was a part 2 not the final installment
Yeah but Freddy’s Revenge was about Freddy trying to possess Jessie whilst Halloween Ends is more so about Corey going down a dark road and being inspired by Michael
For me personally this is how I feel about the movie if you take it as its own thing as a Halloween anthology film that isn’t about Michael Myers and is more so about the shape of evil living on I actually can really enjoy it. I really like the Corey Cunningham character and some of the themes they were trying to explore and I liked how Laurie was portrayed in this film as someone who was trying to move on from all of her past with Michael Myers. However that’s not what this movie was supposed to be this was supposed to be the end of the Halloween franchise the end of Michael and Laurie‘s story and that is just not with this movie is. So for me as a standalone Halloween movie it’s pretty good but as a conclusion to the franchise it’s pretty bad.
Well said.
My thoughts exactly
Even when you take it as that Corey still feels pretty wasted because of the fact Michael is still there and he kills him very easily
If Corey and Michael would’ve fought I would totally see that as payoff for the time spent on him
Or even better if the movie just started with Laurie and Allyson killing Michael and than we watch Corey turn into Michael that would’ve been better because as it is both Michael and Corey feel sort of wasted in this movie
@@kruegerpoolthe13th Yeah I do agree with that it does feel like two movies in one
@@thelastresident7522 exactly
I'm more impressed with your tortie than Halloween Ends.
Had to pause when you say you felt bad for Corey because he was a teenager. He was 21 when he killed the kid!!! He talks to the dad about going to college and I’m like, what have you been doing since graduating high school? Also, why is he letting himself get bullied by high school kids who are 6-7 years younger than him? He’s 24 throughout the movie!!! That character detail was so random, confusing, and made his character make even less sense
1978- not '79
I hate ENDS (but kills is my favorite Halloween movie). However, although Michael technically killed 3 people I've never watched a Halloween movie where he needed assistance in killing anyone. The first two people MM killed Corey was there helping him, and the third person was Corey himself, and at that point he was half past dead when Michael got him. Then Laurie's drastic change in attitude (after her daughter was killed no less) was just stupid. Just throw this whole movie away please.
I will say that I thought Michael had a strong presence in the second act, but not the first or third.
I saw this in theaters. I could hear people whispering ''where is Michael?''.
I'm just gonna go with the ending of Halloween 2018. Michael may or may not be dead.
Are you serious you said the scene where he gets his tongue cut off was disgusting? You do realize this is slasher film correct? That's like going to go see Terrifier 2 and saying the film is too gory. Quite frankly Halloween Ends wasn't gory enough. That was also one of the best scenes in the movie because that guy was extremely annoying, it was great to see his demise.
There's only like two good halloween films. The rest are somewhat watchable at best
I really tried to like ends but I wanted Michael Myers, there's no substitute
I know. I only felt the terror when Michael went for his sister.
9:19 I said that if they wanted to introduce a new character Ends shouldn't have been this continuity's last film.
I think what makes it so frustrating is that 2018 and Kills were so good and clearly leading up to something Amazing but then it kind of duds. I feel like if this had been a fourth film after the third one it might have been ok but to drop this after Kills makes no sense. I don't know what I expected but it def wasn't this.
Yeah a lot of people didn't like kills but I thought it was really fun. There was some stuff in it I thought was silly but that happens with pretty much every horror movie for the most part, especially in this genre. I really enjoyed 2018 and kills and when ends came out I was very excited. But boy was I let down by it.
@@DegenerateJay i rewatched Kills recently and enjoyed it much more now that my standards were lower. Also my partner and I make fun of the Evil Dies tonight. We constantly say things like "pizza dies tonight", "tacos die tonight", "This rain dies tonight" and so on lol.
I think Jill should be in more videos
Here's the thing, I think Ends is a good movie, BUT it's not a good movie for being the final time we're going to see Michael (at least in this continuity). The whole idea of Michael transferring his power & evil to someone else is an interesting idea, it just doesn't work for the final movie & I'll even go one further with my next point.
It feels like they switched the movies. Like after 2018's if you took the plots of Ends & Kills and switched them it would make so much more sense: After 2018 Michael goes into hiding gravely injured after being burned alive, Kills could've used the same plot Ends does with Michael transferring his power to Cory before ultimately killing him & restoring himself to full strength and then still kills Tommy & Karen at the end, now he's fully powered up for Ends and goes on the mass killing spree that we saw in Kills only the mob assault does soften him up for Laurie & Allyson to deliver the final blows like they do in Ends & you still do the bit where you crush him in the industrial shredder & with Laurie's final line about how evil never dies & it only takes another shape showing that she kept his mask leaving the audience to wonder if Laurie has now been corrupted (if you have to tease a possible sequel or followup that would at least be somewhat new)
To be honest at the end it seems they did it to Halloween franchise on purpose. There is no other explanation why they did such a bad movie.
They made a ton of money from first two movies, they had rights only on 3 movies. If Halloween Ends was good as first two movies, the price for rights on next movies would get much higher. They also told the actor who played Corey to be prepared people will hate this movie omg. They knew what they are doing..
Halloween Ends is the Halloween equivalent to Friday the 13th. Both have good concepts that in theory could've worked. A second coming of Michael Myers and the evil he represents in Cory, and someone impersonating Jason Voorhees for personal reasons in Roy Burns. Both were interesting ideas, but they were engineered from a faulty FNAF animatronic that used a shit covered toilet.
Was REALLY hoping we were passed screwing up these iconic horror franchises. At least Scream did well I guess.
I loathed this movie so much. It's not often I leave the cinema feeling insulted by what I've just seen, but this was one of the worst "fuck you"s in cinematic history.
Good honest coverage
The issue with this film is that it doesn't feel like a Halloween Micheal Myers film at all heck it barley feels like a Halloween film feels more like a hallmark film
Michael isn’t human I don’t know why the writers are trying to say he’s human now when Laurie said he can’t be killed
Yeah Michael Myers isn’t human he’s supernatural being.
My opinion Halloween ends was a bit like Halloween 3, I enjoyed the movie but it felt out of place with the 2 movies that came before
This was written so poorly , it did not pull me into the story. Had no tension/stakes or horror energy to it at all. Karen was mentioned as an after thought, Lindsey Wallace character as a tarot reader was wasted in a 1 minuete scene. Michael is built up since the first movie to have supernatural abilites and this movie it hints at it with no explanation for Michael being a weak old man. Micheal isn't intimidating to the audience or Corey Cunningham he gets bullied by him... I could go on and on, I'm just so disappointed and dissatisfied. Your main star should never be sidelined like that.
Honestly I never really liked Michael Meyers. I like the first 2 movies and h20. I like season of the witch a lot too even though Michael isn’t there. I just felt Michael never had Jason’s charm. Freddy and pinhead have fun lines that make the characters charismatic. The thing is that Jason has almost all bad movies that suck, but they are fun and enjoyable with campiness and goofyness.
To each their own. I actually prefer the silent slashers as opposed to a outspoken killer like Freddy.
I wouldn't have liked it even as a standalone movie that took place AFTER the trilogy. But I wouldn't be actively upset at its existence if that were the case LOL!
I saw Halloween Ends today. I avoided spoilers for 4 months until this very day and it was a very disappointing movie. I liked the first 20-30 min even though it was different because I expected it to develop into something more like Halloween 2018 towards the latter half but I was wrong.
After watching Halloween Ends I owe Rob Zombie an apology
Usually, I like a lot of movies, even some that are considered bad by most. If it’s fun enough or just plain stupid enough, I’ll probably like it to some extent.
But not this movie.
I watched it with my sister, her boyfriend, and his father. When it ended, we all felt the same about it.
It was garbage.
This movie has to be one of, if not the worst horror movies I have ever seen. It’s pointless, rage inducing, and worst of all, boring as sin.
And this is coming from someone who somewhat enjoyed brightburn.
This movie has killed any excitement or joy I feel whenever I hear about this franchise. That may never recover.
2:24 I like Kills too even with the annoying "evil dies tonight" and the mob thinking the patient half Michael's size was him.
The whole buildup and pay off for Michael to kill the entire mob was just worth it tho…
Also it was Mikey’s highest body count
He went from a GREAT movie with Halloween 2018 then downgraded a bit with Halloween Kills but he completely screwed up Halloween Ends. It was just awful....
Originally, I liked Halloween Ends. However, after marinating on it since it’s release, it’s actually quite sad that’s the note we ended on, considering you don’t get Halloween on the big screen often. I can appreciate what they were going for, but this was not it.
Finally some honesty I feel like people are trying to convince themselves that they liked it even though it clearly sucked
They should have kept it to one terrific 40 year sequel, a one-off, basically Halloween 2018 but throw in the Lindsay chase scene from Kills and the finale of Ends, and it would have been fantastic!
I did not like the Corey character I especially hated how he just became friends with Michael out of nowhere I did feel bad for him tho
Someone could still cap this timeline properly if the next team of filmmakers offered JLC her biggest paycheck yet, brought michael back to his full powers, and pitted them against each other. That would be a huge hit. I wouldnt even mind if they had to replace JLC in order to do it. I'm thinking that maybe Helen Hunt could do the role justice. Any ideas of a dream director for Halloween 14?
I was hoping Michael would kill everyone and then disappear into the foggy night
Me and my bro laughed our asses off throughout this whole movie
I liked this movie but I see why you don’t like it, it’s not the best that’s for sure but I still enjoyed it, your opinion is valid and I definitely understand why you don’t like it.
Also if this was not a Halloween movie, like if it was just some crazy teenager and he became a killer with some changes to the story, like no Laurie or Alyson or Michael then I think the movie would be seen as way better.
I actually completely agree with the last statement. My main issue is them branding it a Halloween film. It would have been much better as a standalone.
@@DegenerateJaythe movie was definitely inspired by Steven king but not from IT but Christine witch also was adapted into a film directed by John Carpenter, arnie carrinham - Correy carrinham
There were so many fake out jump scares too. A jump scare happens but it was a door opening or something. It was not scary at all! Corey is not a scary slasher villain! I was just bored for the entire movie.
So true. If a film has jump scares, it should be of legitimate immediate threats to the character. It feels cheap to have fake outs
The thing I liked about the Original, H2, 2018, and Kills was that Michael was ambiguously superhuman, but not blatantly demonic. He was just inhuman enough to be terrifying. The Thorn Trilogy made him far too supernatural, and Ends did the opposite, remove his power. He's not this crazy demon like in 4-6, but he's definitely not "just a dude" either. He's a nigh-invincible powerhouse but he's also still a man. Thorn wanted to make him this Freddy Krueger or It type character while Ends is like a worse version of Ghostface. Like Jay mentioned, he's almost a more well done version of Jason Vorhees, just less shlocky.
My deal with Michael is he's BOTH. What I mean is he IS an ordinary man; until he puts the mask on. Remember in Kills when he was unmasked he just stood there? He was almost in a state of shock; like as a child, until he put his mask on. Than he became an unstoppable killing machine. Freddy, Jason, Chucky, are all supernatural. Michael is like a competent Ghost Face. He's an ordinary man, but BELIEVES he's supernatural when he dons the mask. Basically he CAN be killed like an ordinary man, but is SO filled with intense anger and hatred that he's seemingly invincible. He's like Kane, Mankind, Abyss, the FIEND, etc. from WWE. He's a man in a mask, but wearing it and preying on his victims fears and doubts makes him unkillable. Also he's a serial killer, but also mentally disturbed and when people who are mentally disturbed have their moments they can endure high levels of pain and have 3 times the amount of strength than normal people. Michael is like a modern day Lenny from of Mice and Men or Frankenstein; which, BTW, Michael should have NEVER killed that young kid in Halloween 2018. Michael himself is child like. Whatever. Hollywood sucks and Jamie Lee Curtis should have NEVER put her name on this crap.
@@Nick-up5wv michael isn't childlike tho. He's smart, cold and calculated. Michael also came out first. Kane, undertaker, and the other guys are based off Myers. That's where they get the classic sit up from.
@@realninjaent544 True, but I always assumed Michael drew inspiration from Frankenstein and Lenny. They ARE child like. I believe without the mask Michael is child like. With it he's God like because he BELIEVES he is, even if he is only human. He's like Batman. Batman is MORE than a man. He's a symbol. He isn't crap as Bruce Wayne though. Same diff
@@Nick-up5wv ok I agree
@@Nick-up5wv well, I see your intelligent by the way you can convey your thoughts which I appreciate, but I don't think it makes a difference whether he has his mask on or not. In 2018, Michael was catching bodies, outsmarting people and surviving car crashes without the mask. He's smarter than Lenny or Frankenstein.. now I agree he's a symbol but he's really just a psychopath.
I think I am going to get a lot of hate for saying this but I actually enjoyed the movie I could see why people don't like this movie at the same time I get the same feeling of the end of Halloween 4 to me it was a different take of Halloween so they're trying something new I wouldn't say I love this or hate it I really enjoyed it it's a typical Halloween movie and there is a lot of them and they take some elements of old Halloween movies especially Halloween 4
i heard that this movie was awful. i was like “oh people said that about halloween kills im sure it’s not that bad”. god it was such worse than i could ever have imagined
It's funny because I heard the same reception to Halloween Kills, and for the most part, had ended up liking the movie. Then this film came out... Oh boy. To me, it makes HK look like the best horror film ever made.
@@DegenerateJay totally agree! i think kills is a fun movie and in retrospect with how disrespectful ends was its even better
I’ve seen quite a few people say it and I agree with the fact that this is a good movie. However, it made no sense to do this movie as the final film of a trilogy that I for the most part really enjoyed. Halloween and Kills are movies that I genuinely love and I rewatch them constantly. But the way Ends was executed, this trilogy is not gonna flow very well. And as much as I like the ending, there was no build up to it, because it focused so much on this love story, which by the way, was completely absent from any marketing of this movie. It seemed like David Gordon Green wanted to make his own movie, but also wanted to please Halloween fans. The problem is, the movie becomes very messy with the approach that he took. Not to mention this movie’s pacing is easily the worst of the three. I understand what the director was going for and it’s a movie I like, but I really feel the direction they chose to go with this movie doesn’t make sense as the concluding chapter of this trilogy.
People will say you didn’t enjoy the movie because you didn’t “understand” what they were trying to do with it. No, I didn’t enjoy the movie because it wasn’t that good 😂
I hated how this movie used my name, uggghhhhhh ruining Corey's everywhere lol
Halloween Ends “Game of Thrones Season 8’ed” me… to death… ☠️💀☠️
Should have ended with laurie trying on Michael mask. Then turn toward the camera and start the heavy breathing
IT? Possibly. I say it's more like Christine.
Yes!
I absolutely hated this movie I can't believe the final Halloween movie made Michael a side character it's bad enough making him a side character in any Halloween movie but the final one it just feels like a giant f you. The Michael from the last movie would have survived what happened to him in the ending I'm just really upset with this movie and what it did to Michael Myers
I watch negative Halloween Ends reviews on TH-cam at least twice a week to help get me though the shock of how absolutely offensive this movie was lol what. The. Fuck
