Review of Halloween Ends (2022) by Librarian1928 — 16 Oct 2022
Far and away the worst Halloween film yet and quite possibly the stupidest, most disappointing, and worst written piece of crap ever to grace the silver screen.
The lazy hack writing and downright contempt for the history of the franchise and it's audience pervades every second of this bloated mess of a film.
Sold as the final showdown between two horror icons, Michael and Laurie, the film instead almost entirely focuses on the newly introdced Corey - truely one of the least likeable or interesting characters in film history. It's like a Halloween film spliced with the worst ever episode of Dawson's Creek.
The writers seem entirely incapable of writing any sort of believable dialogue between characters. Just schlocky, lazy tropes. Every scene with the four bullies and the tarty nurse illicted howls of laughter from the audience with whom I watched this tired wet fart of a film.
Michael is a tired, old bufoon easily physically tapped out by Corey (God, I jut vurped thinking about him), Laurie is a dotty Granny seemingly not at all affected by her forty year trauma, the D.J. is just a walking cliche of black maleness and every single character is a lazy and tired collection of horror movie cliches and crap dialogue. I honestly can't imagine that the script took longer than two hours to write. They must have given Curtis millions to add her name to this.
Please cancel the upcoming Exorcist trilogy because if they would do Michael this dirty then Regan, you in danger girl.
