I like how they are calling this “The last Halloween movie” but we all know that it will only be a couple years until they reboot it. The "Evil dies tonight." got so old, very quickly. I also thought it was so weird how Laurie spent every waking moment preparing for him to return while he was literally locked up for 40 years, but now that he’s on the loose and went on his most violent massive killing spree she’s just chillin. I was like uh what.😆
I saw something the other week that the rights are either available to be or are already bought so this is just the end for now, whether they make another halloween film at some point we both know the answer
The people who made this trilogy only had the rights to make one trilogy. Now that all three movies are out they've more or less said "This isn't the last Halloween movie, just the last one made by us."
Yeah I agree. And while there’s something to be said about letting a franchise rest. I would love to see an actual good reboot of the series one day. Despite its bad track record it does have the makings of a great movie. It’s just bad horrible direction. Look no further than the Novelization of these current Halloween movies. They expands upon and make those movies better. Why they didn’t adapt them? Who knows. Maybe they’re allergic to making a good movie.
@@CHAINSMELLY Then why tf would they go out of their way to show that he has some sort of supernatural effect? He was killing people and taking damage that no normal person would survive yet when it's convenient for the movie he's "old and dying" terrible writing.
My BIGGEST problem with the movie is that the trailers lied to us. They implied that Michael and Lowry would be the center of this movie, culminating in a final showdown but what we GOT was a weird RomCom movie where this sad kid goes on a killing spree, beats Michael myers up with little effort, and then Michael and Lowry have a glorified cameo with a showdown at the end.
Fun fact: in the novelization of the film, they mention that Michael escaped into the woods after Kills, and the old homeless man who Corey kills was one of the Smith's Grove patients who was manipulated into worshipping Michael as a God by Sartain, and when he found Michael, he brought him to the sewers and protected him, brought him food, and brought him victims. The novel isn't perfect, it's still largely the same story, but it does fill in some of the gaps and flesh out some of the more confusing parts of the film. They also mention that Laurie spiraled down into an even worse state after Karen's death, but she eventually got therapy and is writing the memoir at Frank's suggestion. We also get a scene with Julian, the kid Vicky was babysitting in '18. All in all, the book is significantly better than the movie, but still pretty terrible
The fact that laurie canonically spent 40 years preparing her revenge because her friends where killed yet when her fucking daughter gets murdered she's just like "nah i'm over it writing my memoir #self_love" like bro 😭
Corey really took on the role of killer. Didn't hesitate or anything. I wasn't sure at first but when Michael pinned the Lady to the wall. It confirmed the fact that Michael Myers is an expert Stud finder.
Kills and Ends are a prime example of not everything needing a trilogy. The ending of 2018 gave us an ending that satisfied both sets of fans imo. Should of been enough.
@@fugit1vegaming397 I actually burst out laughing the first time I saw it in the theater. It was so predictable that you could just tell from the moment the nerd got locked behind the door that he's gonna kick open the door and hit the kid, causing him to fall off.
@@SonicHedgehog1991 i swear for a sec i thought u stole my account cause i was gonna write wor for dcking word. I was holler when i saw that shit and yhe the momentary pause as the parents look around and he falls yelling ahhhhhhh 🤣🤣. Had no idea there would be comedy in this one
I hate how Laurie let Michael dictate her life when he was locked in a secure facility for 40 years, but after his most violent killing spree, that took the life of most of her acquaintances (her daughter and son-in-law included mind you), AND HE FUCKING VANISHES AFTER, she get's all "ok, NOW it's the time to start healing". Cory was a terrific idea, terribly executed. He should've been introduced in 2018, perhaps replacing that friend of Cameron that was into Allyson, and the seeds that he was just as Evil as Michael should've been explored in Kills. That way, just as we see Allyson playing a modern take into Laurie's character, Cory could been the same for Michael, during the trilogy.
I think had they introduced Cory earlier in the trilogy, maybe have him play a friend of Laurie’s granddaughter and run away from Michael despite being mesmerized. Then later, have him try to kill Michael and accidentally kill someone else, leading him to be a social pariah. And let that slowly build up to him sympathizing with Michael & that lead to him leading Michael back to Laurie. I think the movie was poorly received solely because Cory was such a focal point randomly-that pretty much doomed the movie & his character. It’s really hard to flesh out a character like that & make them not inconsistent when you have to introduce them to an existing/ongoing plot, wiggle in their motives/conflict and resolve it while also having 2 bigger characters and a much bigger plot between them.
I feel like they found every possible way to make sure the movie wasn't good, because the fact that fan's idea on a UA-cam comment section beats what a bunch of writers could put together is astonishing
Yeah. I don’t understand a whole new character in the finale of a trilogy, making him the focus of a movie that the series wasn’t about then just discarding him
Yup 2018 have him accidentally kill that kid, 2018 shows the town pushing him to what he became in ends having him be "infected" or whatever by Mike in kills. Kills ending with him killing a bum or Karen or whoever in cold blood. Have the town mob and try to kill Mike while he is either there or helps.. Mike loses his mask. Corey takes it, Mike gets away. Setting up ends. He starts as A hero saving Laurie or her granddaughter in 2018, gets infected in kills, Becomes fake Michael in ends for Years or so, Laurie finds out, they still have a confrontation but he still gets killed by Mike.
My thing is that if Michael Myers regens after each kill, then why is he so defeated if he literally killed an entire village at the end of the last one?
Well see he decided to put away his anger and retire to a quiet life of dragging random people in the sewer and hiding from them in a wall crack, only to jump scare them when they attempt to walk out.
3:55 The woman who decided to "hang around" permanently, wasn't a rando, she was the mother of the Boy Michael killed in the 1st movie (2018). The one in the devil costume that tried to kiss Allison after she had the fight with her bf. We know this, because she's wearing the costume he died in . . .
I was just about to post about this. I've seen a few reviews/explained posts that have gotten it wrong about the woman who hanged herself. Only one I've watched got it right. And the problems in Haddonfield are not just about evil,but also the trauma,the survivors guilt,grief and the need for blame.
I get why the town blames Laurie. There will always be those people who barely understand the situation and need someone to blame especially since Michael is gone and Sartain died so their mind is like why not blame the woman who was obsessing over them
Also taking a feminist perspective, they blame the woman and victim. Rather than blaming the man who intentionally broke out Michael, killed an officer and guided Michael to Laurie
Actually the whole "they needed a new boogieman" is pretty on spot It's the concept of an "Escape goat". Basically the idea that any society (in this case, the town) needs a "common enemy", something to receive all of their hate, so as to "relieve" those negative feelings. Without someone or something to take blame for whatever, people will start to instead target any tiny detail from *inside* their society and this will inevitably lead to internal conflicts, which threatens their society's stability.
I’ve never been a grief stricken mother on account of being a man so I might not get it but I don’t understand why you’d wear the costume your son was murdered in to commit unalive on yourself
I think the scene with Laurie outside of the grocery store was a scene that was used a lot throughout the movie, whenever a character got to feel happiness and Joy immediately something happens to maie them sad or angry like a curse. I think the point of the movie was that the characters still couldnt fully heal their wounds even if they wanted to
It was so stupid that Lori was able to trade blows ( fight ) with Michael, fight him and also hold her own. Michael is unnaturally strong not to mention him not dying easily or at all ( stabbing and .... doesn't do much ). There's no way that old woman was able to win the fight or stand against him for more than a few seconds.

Horror Movies have really become so F'N lame! I watch reviews for most films these days as I really don't want to waste my time! Got a 2 year old so I only have small slots for Horror Movies! Sometimes there's some absolute GEMS cant complain horror is totally dead haha.
@@cyrusthegreat3299 Halloween Kills: Michael is a literal freak of nature. Obliterating entire hordes of people at a time, including buff firefighters with weapons and an entire town. Halloween Ends: Michael in the span of a year, becomes a decrepit old sewer junkie who is barely capable of walking, let alone fighting.
I think I finally get why she’s no longer paranoid, she spent her whole life trying to prevent her daughters death and saw that it was still futile so she gave and and is taking everything face first
I was waiting for him the whole time 😭 after I saw it I was waiting for redlettermedia too but then I thought nah they gonna like it cuz it’s different and they did 😭 I knew foundflix was gonna keep it real 😎
I can't help but think, Halloween ends would've been great if they just set some of this stuff up in the other two movies. Why couldn't Cory have been introduced in 2018. Maybe flesh out the ' curse Michael seems to be passing on?
you give the creators of these films too much credit. there is zero forethought, just the lust for cash. the horror genre is a joke, there is no truth in this art.
I think he stabbed himself and did the whole “if I can’t have her…” thing because - if Lori’s threatening to expose him to Allyson, making it seem like she’s killed him makes it so Lori won’t have Ally either. Which she’s kind of already lost her by that point anyway. EDIT: it’s not over. They’ll retcon the whole thing by making it seem like Michael somehow switched Corey’s body with his or something 😭😭
It’s like they wanted to do something like Freddy vs Jason (Freddy uses Jason to kill, spread fear, and gain power which seems similar to Michael and Corey with how Michael seemed to get stronger with killing) and IT Pt2 where “you’re just a man” seemed to have a similar effect as “you’re just a clown”
I really wanted the franchise to end with both Laurie and Michael dying...idk why but because of the years of dedication toward ending one another lives, it would've been a satisfying end in a weird way
Especially since it was announced that this was the last appereance of Laurie or rather Jamie Lee Curtis in the Halloween franchise. They could have made her the hero who sacrifices herself to save her granddaughter. This ending was totally unsatisfying
I’ve been a huge fan my entire life, but this movie was trash. How does Michael go from brawling like Chuck Norris to a drunk guy at a bar? Too many how’s in a negative way here. I think I’m going to buy the first 3 and say that’s it when I show my kids. The last one never happened in my mind.
And then Laurie woke up from her dream. Realizing that she inhaled too much smoke from the fire. There she was with her daughter and grand baby at the back of the pick up. Micheal died in the house fire. The end
I mean I'm conflicted about Michael's end. One one hand, the fight is great between him and Laurie and I love how the town came together in the end to dispose of Michael's body. But just having his neck and wrist slit? That's the blow that finally does Michael in? I mean I'm glad it was Laurie who ended it. Just thought that maybe she'd stab him in the head at least.
I think by slitting his throat and wrist should tell us that, yes Micheal is just an old man wearing a mask and he can be killed like every other person (even if he literally survived a burning house and the beating of hislifestime...xD)
Cory's mom reminds me of Carrie's mom. And we all know how Carrie turned out. lol. This movie was so different, but interesting. I did like the ending. But it was like two movies in one. I'm sure there will be another reboot in a couple of years. So until then...💜💜
After 5 years from now, I want a director to step up and make a new Halloween Ends. I want them to do the same thing that Halloween (2018) did; ignore every past movies and continue from a movie. In this case, continue from Halloween Kills. Maybe it’ll be a better Halloween Ends.
That’d be great and all but half of the actors are already old as hell. Another half-full decade and the timeline will make even less sense. This is pretty much it for anything other than a spin-off, which sucks ass. Hollywood needs to get its shit together.
@@alexanderstrickland9036 I agree. Also, who knows if Jamie Lee is wanting to do another Halloween spin-off. I’m thinking she is going to be done with the series, which this movie was a huge let down for her and her character ngl.
All ima say is that at the end of Halloween kills, Michael goes toe to toe with like 20 people all armed with bats, crowbars, and even a gun. He gets bashed in the head repeatedly, he gets shot in the chest literally 6 times by a revolver at close range, yet he still gets up and kills everybody, pretty much confirming he is an immortal embodiment of pure evil. Then In this movie they throw that all away and turned him into a normal ass old man who gets slapped around by Corey, Laurie, and Alyson.
It was like dude was confused when he made this movie and kills. They made the whole town go insane over a guy nobody seen in 40 years Laurie with them, he turns into Jason in kills then they throw all of that out in the next movie. Then the weirdest shit happens besides Corey existing.. why would Laurie stop being prepared for Michael if he disappeared after killing her daughter? It's like they had their movies mixed up and out of order
Did anybody catch what Jeremy told Corey which got completed muted. Also did anybody see how this kid has the uncanny ability to move like Michael or that of the children of the damn. He pops open the front door and the back door then ends up @ the top of the the ultra high steps? What kind of scarrying skills are those? Looks like michael was looking for Corey.
I mean Laurie could have tried to move on from Michael. If anything feels realistic that some would try to move on from these kinds of tragedies. Really, I feel what people overlook is that the whole of Haddonfield was corrupt. They always needed to have some Boogeyman to blame for their problems whether it be Michael or Corey. Even Laurie is blamed for Michael's actions due to her being the sole survivor of his rampage. To think about it, Haddonfield is almost like some Lovecraftian nightmare where evil festers underneath the surface but eventually, evil leaks out driving the town into murderous savagery.
So basically the evil the town harbored mainfested in physical form in Michael, infected Corey, will be inevitably be reborn in a new face. Evil never dies.
keyword here is "try" considering the first in this trilogy picks up after the original film with not much info given on what happened in such a long time between, plus the fact that Laurie had in fact started a family at some point to have her daughter, it's most likely that she tried to move on from it but ultimately failed, especially since she knew for a fact that Michael was still alive. Lots of people in real life try to move past their trauma but are unable and end up carrying it for the rest of their lives. That said, if they were gonna use this theme, it would have been nice for them to actually elaborate a bit of what happened during the time gap to give it more weight.
@@nagi7995 Personally, I'd rather not be spoon-fed. Ultimately, I feel that if anything, Laurie was trying to do better by raising Allyson instead of just going after Michael. She already lost her daughter; makes sense to me that she would want to do right by Allyson by trying to let her Boogeyman go.
And making it look easy too. Like the moment he called Michael an old man in a mask, I almost turned the movie off. If Corey could just man handle Michael then what’s the point of watching the rest of the movie
As I was watching this I was sure that Allie was going to end up killing Corey…like she could sense his evil and kept herself close to him to see if it would take over. I would’ve changed my whole opinion of the movie

Corey was like "the town made a monster out of me for an accident, i'm angry and sad and you know why? i'm gonna prove myself and to them that.....they're right, i'm a monster, a killer" Not a way to end this trilogy nor a Halloween movie.
Oh boy have this movie been divisive. And the makers of this almost new that it was going to be so they even went with the old color scheme and lettering of Halloween 3 Season of the Witch. It's a complete 180 from the killfest of Halloween Kills. But they do sort of imply that the spirit and influence of Michael Myers affects the behavior of the townspeople of Haddonfield much like Pennywise does for Derry Maine.
Just watched this with my wife 10 minutes before you uploaded this vid haha. This has been an amazing Halloween 🎃 now we get to watch you explain it. Love it!
Yeah I thought this was going to be some kind of Twisted Love Story prequel and I was actually getting into it until the poor kid Jammed the knife through his throat and then I was just like SO that happened and that was it😂
Which i fucking hated. Why kill him off and self suicide if we spent 2-3 hours caring for him and sticking with him. Makes no sense. They coulda set him up for Michael in the new movies they make but ig not
Feels like this movie was trying to go in 3 separate directions, and just kinda failed at all of them. There was some potential with Corey, but it just went nowhere
I wouldn't have minded Corey taking over as The Shape with a love interest/rival in Laurie's granddaughter and possibly maybe Allison giving birth a kid who may or may not have the killer instinct. I believe they could have shown the transition with Corey intruding on Michael's kills. Then have a double showdown or something with Michael and Laurie offing each other and then passing the torch to Corey and Allison. I was fine with the romantic elements but they didn't pay off with a new Shape which I thought they were for sure going for.
This movie was hot garbage, we spent an hour pissing around with Corey for him to not even take the myers mantle for a new few slashers, we may as well just have had a massive clash between Michael and Laurie one final time, also why was Michael immortal in the last film just for him to be bumbling around in the sewers for 5 years ... makes NO SENSE !!!
Would love to hear you cover the Netflix show Cabinet of Curiosities. I loved almost every episode they were very good some better than others but some of the best short horror films I’ve seen. If not all of the at least cover The Viewing it was soooo good
@@jennsimpson_backup3333 i enjoyed it a lot. Every episode was so unique and interesting. Not really any jump scares, every episode just does a great job at setting up a horror mood. It doesn’t hit on a lot of horror cliches that most films do nowadays. My only complaint is I wish the episodes were longer.
Love the videos you make def a1 content. Your next ending exp should definitely be the new hellraiser. It was such a great and unsettling piece of art.
I always took for granted that Corey was posessed by Michael Myers and the movie was about Michael trying to get to Lauries grand daughter. We are watching M.M. the entire time in a new body.
If he possessed him, why did the kid push Michael around in the sewers? The movie just didnt make any sense considering the previous films and the lore that comes with this boogeyman overall
@@bomber9912 Pushing around the old body. It really made quite a bit of sense to me. Michael was looking for a new host because he was to weakened the kid let Michael in because he was sick of being a bitch lol the only thing i didn't like was not seeing laurie come to realize Cory was actually Michael. There was a couple of things that turned me off but the overall story made sense to me. I liked it.
@@EMO_alpha That "old body" slaughtered half the neighborhood after they seemingly broke every bone in him... Thats what i mean with incompatibility. I rather see Halloween Kills canonic than this movie. Michael Myers is in my opinion not supposed to be a human or a body that is possessed by something. Hes supposed to be evil in itself. Thats why in the original movies Loomis called him "It". There is no flesh. Its an entitiy. They totally missed that mark for me here.
@@bomber9912 Yeah, he was left weakened after the end of the last one and crawled off to hibernate. And yeah, Michael is an entity or an evil force. Hence spreading to Corey. He had one host and then spread to take over Corey like a virus. And wasn't Michael Lauries brother? That would take a body probably. I am sorry you didn't like the movie i don't know what tell you. I did and i thought it made more sense than it didn't.
@@EMO_alpha Why was he weakened? That is the whole issue. This is something that was incinuated in this film NOT in Halloween Kills. In Halloween Kills Michael was 100% fine at the end. Also the whole brother thing came after the old Halloween movies. Like Halloween 4+. Dont really remember when that was introduced, but it doesnt have any influence on this topic anyway. But if we take all the other movies into consideration: Michael never acted like a virus, cause he is not. He is the embodiment evil. Evil does not need to search for another body, because it is not human to begin with.
After marathoning all Halloween films here my thoughts on the H40 timeline The first film (Halloween 2018) is about trauma and how people exploit it in their obsession of understanding evil. The second film (Halloween Kills) is about how fear brings out our worst and most animalistic nature as well as revenge/vigilante justice is nothing but a harmful and blinding fantasy. The third film (Halloween Ends) is about paranoia and hate does nothing but create new boogeyman in our society. Michael Myers isn't the only one and evil doesn't die with him in fact evil can take any shape manifest anywhere paranoia and a lack of compassion just gives it power. This trilogy is about trauma and tragedy how it breeds paranoia and fear about how the only way we can overcome is finding resolve.
@@iCipher this is only good things I can say about this trilogy but can't fix issues with Kills and Ends while I do give credit they tried something different but man we wanted Michael and Laurie to be main focus in Ends as it should have been the entire time after all that build up
As a person who did move from their hometown to get away from bad things and thoughts, it is hard to start a new life. If I didn't get to move back in with my parents at 28 when they moved where they did. I would of have not made it. So not leaving the hometown and the scary that follows makes complete sense.
Honestly, I can see what they were trying to go for and the concept is interesting. That Michael is in fact just a man, a very disturbed and physically able man but a man nonetheless. That the town’s people and Laurie , and even Michael himself believing that he was something more was what gave him that perceived power, like a wide scale placebo effect and Laurie finally kills him for good when she realises and accepts that he is in fact mortal. Does that make the trilogy good movies? Hell no, with the exemption of the first as a decent standalone popcorn horror. So many things needed to be executed better like better exploring the theme so that the difference between Michael at his peak in the 2nd and the weakened Michael in 3 wouldnt be so jarring. Something definitely needed to be there to bridge that, show cracks appear in his mysticism. Corey also definitely needed to have been established at the start and have his arc fleshed out across all 3 films. Ultimately, the trilogy is just decent and interesting ideas that could have worked that needed better and more cohesive movies for them
I actually kinda liked this movie it showed that when people lose a monster they’ll find a new monster but there were definitely some bad parts but Cory was definitely a decent character and Jeremy’s dad had one of the best quotes in the movie “they took my pain and turned it into themselves” that’s what I felt this movie wanted to show people will take others pain and make it their own and make a new monster whenever the first disappears. Allison kinda sucked not gonna lie but the rest was pretty good in my opinion the kills especially were fucking awesome
So Jeremy’s dad being in two scenes and saying a line you like makes it a good movie? And Corey died at the end for no reason which again is another reason the movie sucked. But I guess one character and a quote is all it takes for some people
@@Cheerstothewildones I never said that man, the message is what makes it a good movie if you read that part instead of only reading that part that makes your point makes sense you would understand that and if you don’t like the movie that’s fine but you don’t have to insult the reasons a person does like the movie that’s just shallow and makes you seem like a shitty person who can’t handle other’s opinions on media
I didn't particularly like the film at all. I thought Kills was okay -- definitely watchable with some good points to it that I enjoyed -- but I had a lot of hang-ups with it, too. Ends, however, was a real drag just for me to get through. I didn't find Corey to be a particularly compelling or likeable character that I could get emotionally invested in as a protagonist *or* villain. Allyson became likewise an absolute pain every time she was on-screen and their romance arc... don't even get me started. All of the glorious cinematography from the 2018 film was gone, along with any hint of solid writing (especially in regards to dialogue). I think the acting took a noticeable hit, too. I know they were trying to deal with some heavy themes in regard to cycles of violence, persecution, and depression but IMO the execution fell flat and short of the mark, at least for me. Largely sidelining the franchise golden boy until practically the last ten minutes of the movie was a weird creative choice, especially since I already had qualms about how Michael's character had been handled by this continuity. To each their own, of course. I'm genuinely glad others were able to enjoy it. It just wasn't my cup of tea. I had high hopes and expectations as Halloween 2018 is IMO one of the best slasher films in recent history and Ends came out on my birthday and was filmed near me. But it didn't tick many boxes for me, unfortunately.
@@SaftonYT I definitely understand and to each their own media shouldn’t always be enjoyed or hated by everyone if it was there would be no room for improvement or opinions on movies and I completely understand about the romance arc I can definitely see how that was incredibly boring and I’m glad that people have their opinions on it and that we’re able to enjoy or not enjoy media without going at each other’s throats. It was definitely not what I expected either on my first watch I was disappointed that micheal and lorie’s showdown was not the main plot point however on later viewings it definitely grew on me. I agree that 2018 was an incredible movie and I was really hoping the rest of the trilogy would be like 2018 but sadly we didn’t particularly get that.
If Korey had been a protagonists in one, and the babysitting incident was shown then or in #2 so we had time to know and love him before being saddened by his corruption

Michael went from taking down a entire fire department with a axe to this movie a kid takes him down and takes his mask with minimum effort. The total lack of respect for Myers in this movie really took me out
See, what really bothers me about this trilogy is they say it erases everything after 1 but treat it like the whole damn series happened. Why would Laurie live in fear for 40 years after a guy in a mask killed a couple of people? I live in Newfoundland, the literal least violent place on earth. I know a guy who, in his youth, killed 3 people and tried to kill himself. He lived in a small town of about 500 people. He got out (after a long, long time in prison) and lives back there now. He doesn't have any friends but the town moved on and nobody's afraid of the guy. Anyway, it's too far fetched for me and I believe that 1 through H20 was the (far) better timeline. Even if they just left them as siblings, Laurie could feel responsible for him and prepare. When H18 startef, he wasn't even an effective killer, two of his would-be victims escaped. The fuck is everyone on about? Tldr; they needed these films to take place before '18 to justify the fear and panic everyone is feeling. Original timeline (minus Resurrection) was far superior.
This "ending" to the trilogy didn’t feel like an ending AT ALL. I’m not really like hardcore fan of Halloween (the movies) I just liked watching it because of my stepdad. But I really liked the first two movies. It just felt like I was watching a romance movie with Allyson’s character. The kills weren’t even that prominent. And how the heck did they kill Michael that easy and quick if we saw in Halloween Kills that Michael murdered so many townspeople???
I just wanna know how Michael got to that doctors house with Corey lol was he holding him tight and playing with his ears on the back of his bike like Allyson

I felt like when Michael grabbed him he gave him his energy cause Corey changed personalities after that and then later on at the end michael took his power back soon as he saw that Laurie was homie target
the only thing that bugged me about this movie was the writing!!! Everything FoundFlix pointed out was spot on. Some dialogue were so cringy and forceful too.
Thank you for reviewing this! I have been waiting since they announced Halloween Ends was coming out for your ending explained so I can consider if I want to see the movie 😂
Watch them make a sequel where a Michael obsessed fan-girl gets all his shredded body & reassembles it like a Rubik’s cube. Then uses a dark druid spell it revive him..only for Michael to be mad he was brought back, so he grabs her and puts both themselves in the grinder alive.
It was so stupid that Lori was able to trade blows ( fight ) with Michael, fight him and also hold her own. Michael is unnaturally strong not to mention him not dying easily or at all ( stabbing and .... doesn't do much ). There's no way that old woman was able to win the fight or stand against him for more than a few seconds.
Agreed. The movie was simply okay. It's nowhere near as bad as many claim it to be. The concept of Corey becoming the new Shape should've been built up over the course of all 3 movies so that we don't need to spend Movie 3 telling his entire story.
This whole movie felt like a crazy '80s horror movie, for me in the best way. I think that the director took a lot of intentional inspiration from John Carpenter and his films. This movie almost feels more in the spirit of what Carpenter wanted to do for the sequels: an anthology about evil taking place on Halloween. I totally see why people don't like this movie, I just happen to like it 🤷
So, one of the OG movie slashers that helped kick-start the genre as a whole, resorted to nicking plot points from "Candyman" and following the failing trend of sidelining the original cast and characters in favour of younger, more "relatable" characters that have none of the staying power. Poor franchise just can't catch a break, can it? Half expected Cory to turn to the camera and say: "I'm Cory Skywalker."
I like how they are calling this “The last Halloween movie” but we all know that it will only be a couple years until they reboot it. The "Evil dies tonight." got so old, very quickly. I also thought it was so weird how Laurie spent every waking moment preparing for him to return while he was literally locked up for 40 years, but now that he’s on the loose and went on his most violent massive killing spree she’s just chillin. I was like uh what.😆
I saw something the other week that the rights are either available to be or are already bought so this is just the end for now, whether they make another halloween film at some point we both know the answer
The people who made this trilogy only had the rights to make one trilogy. Now that all three movies are out they've more or less said "This isn't the last Halloween movie, just the last one made by us."
We were calling Endgame the last MCU film
E
Yeah I agree. And while there’s something to be said about letting a franchise rest. I would love to see an actual good reboot of the series one day. Despite its bad track record it does have the makings of a great movie. It’s just bad horrible direction. Look no further than the Novelization of these current Halloween movies. They expands upon and make those movies better. Why they didn’t adapt them? Who knows. Maybe they’re allergic to making a good movie.
Love how he went from deranged stalker killer to "feed me bodies in a sewer because just the act of murder alone sustains me"
It was so bad. Smfh
They turned Michael into a deranged homeless serial killer
He’s old and dying bunch of crybaby’s in this video
That's just as stupid as the cult of thorn bull shit
@@CHAINSMELLY Then why tf would they go out of their way to show that he has some sort of supernatural effect? He was killing people and taking damage that no normal person would survive yet when it's convenient for the movie he's "old and dying" terrible writing.
My BIGGEST problem with the movie is that the trailers lied to us. They implied that Michael and Lowry would be the center of this movie, culminating in a final showdown but what we GOT was a weird RomCom movie where this sad kid goes on a killing spree, beats Michael myers up with little effort, and then Michael and Lowry have a glorified cameo with a showdown at the end.
They just “don’t know” how to write good movies anymore
Yeah Corey gets beat by band nerds and even he can beat Michael. Its a travesty.
dont forget we got to see cory go from "not to hot"!
I agree I feel like I got tricked fr
My Little Pony the Movie was better than this. lmao😆
Fun fact: in the novelization of the film, they mention that Michael escaped into the woods after Kills, and the old homeless man who Corey kills was one of the Smith's Grove patients who was manipulated into worshipping Michael as a God by Sartain, and when he found Michael, he brought him to the sewers and protected him, brought him food, and brought him victims. The novel isn't perfect, it's still largely the same story, but it does fill in some of the gaps and flesh out some of the more confusing parts of the film.
They also mention that Laurie spiraled down into an even worse state after Karen's death, but she eventually got therapy and is writing the memoir at Frank's suggestion. We also get a scene with Julian, the kid Vicky was babysitting in '18. All in all, the book is significantly better than the movie, but still pretty terrible
It sounds more cohesive at least.
Thanks for the info! 👍
Yeah that homeless man seemed off his rocker , so i'm not surprised he was helping Michael.
Lol, that would’ve been cool to see in the movie, but I guess context is optional 😂
The fact that laurie canonically spent 40 years preparing her revenge because her friends where killed yet when her fucking daughter gets murdered she's just like "nah i'm over it writing my memoir #self_love" like bro 😭
Corey really took on the role of killer. Didn't hesitate or anything. I wasn't sure at first but when Michael pinned the Lady to the wall. It confirmed the fact that Michael Myers is an expert Stud finder.
It would've been awkward if he had to hunt around the drywall looking for it.
Every 16 inches
Kills and Ends are a prime example of not everything needing a trilogy. The ending of 2018 gave us an ending that satisfied both sets of fans imo. Should of been enough.
Shits crazy to me how far they fell with each sequel from that 2018 movie
Kills would have been an amazing cliff hanger
@@massagegun7835 cliff hangers don't really leave you with closure though. If anything kills would of left you with evil winning.
@@JakeDriver Halloween kills was a novella movie Ends feels like a spin-off to H18. I don’t think Cory is dead at all I’m not buying it.
2018🐐 kills 😬😬😬😬 ends 🚮🚮🚮
Let me be clear: The part where the kid fall off the stairs at the beginning is one of the the funniest shit I've ever seen in any movie.
I watched several times. It’s hilarious.
im sure on a rewatch it would be a lot funnier, but for me, it caused one of the most shocking theater experiences in recent memory
He deserved it
@@fugit1vegaming397 I actually burst out laughing the first time I saw it in the theater. It was so predictable that you could just tell from the moment the nerd got locked behind the door that he's gonna kick open the door and hit the kid, causing him to fall off.
@@SonicHedgehog1991 i swear for a sec i thought u stole my account cause i was gonna write wor for dcking word. I was holler when i saw that shit and yhe the momentary pause as the parents look around and he falls yelling ahhhhhhh 🤣🤣. Had no idea there would be comedy in this one
I hate how Laurie let Michael dictate her life when he was locked in a secure facility for 40 years, but after his most violent killing spree, that took the life of most of her acquaintances (her daughter and son-in-law included mind you), AND HE FUCKING VANISHES AFTER, she get's all "ok, NOW it's the time to start healing". Cory was a terrific idea, terribly executed. He should've been introduced in 2018, perhaps replacing that friend of Cameron that was into Allyson, and the seeds that he was just as Evil as Michael should've been explored in Kills. That way, just as we see Allyson playing a modern take into Laurie's character, Cory could been the same for Michael, during the trilogy.
because she understood that he did not come for her
I think had they introduced Cory earlier in the trilogy, maybe have him play a friend of Laurie’s granddaughter and run away from Michael despite being mesmerized. Then later, have him try to kill Michael and accidentally kill someone else, leading him to be a social pariah. And let that slowly build up to him sympathizing with Michael & that lead to him leading Michael back to Laurie. I think the movie was poorly received solely because Cory was such a focal point randomly-that pretty much doomed the movie & his character. It’s really hard to flesh out a character like that & make them not inconsistent when you have to introduce them to an existing/ongoing plot, wiggle in their motives/conflict and resolve it while also having 2 bigger characters and a much bigger plot between them.
Exactly. Well stated.
I feel like they found every possible way to make sure the movie wasn't good, because the fact that fan's idea on a UA-cam comment section beats what a bunch of writers could put together is astonishing
Yeah. I don’t understand a whole new character in the finale of a trilogy, making him the focus of a movie that the series wasn’t about then just discarding him
Yup 2018 have him accidentally kill that kid, 2018 shows the town pushing him to what he became in ends having him be "infected" or whatever by Mike in kills. Kills ending with him killing a bum or Karen or whoever in cold blood. Have the town mob and try to kill Mike while he is either there or helps.. Mike loses his mask. Corey takes it, Mike gets away. Setting up ends. He starts as A hero saving Laurie or her granddaughter in 2018, gets infected in kills, Becomes fake Michael in ends for Years or so, Laurie finds out, they still have a confrontation but he still gets killed by Mike.
Tell me you watched Saw without telling me you watched Saw.
This movie tripped over it's own hype, face planted, broke it's nose, had it's wallet stolen by Corey, and shat it's pants.
that’s so oddly specific…and yet ur right
your name is kid ninja you should not have an opinion
@@noahletourneau6221 ratio
My thing is that if Michael Myers regens after each kill, then why is he so defeated if he literally killed an entire village at the end of the last one?
Well see he decided to put away his anger and retire to a quiet life of dragging random people in the sewer and hiding from them in a wall crack, only to jump scare them when they attempt to walk out.
Bro tried another build, it went as well as expected.
I'd like to see Hollywood try make an original movie. But instead we'll get Avengers vs Halloween or some crap
@@irieite9666 lol you know you’d watch that.
He's been hiding for 4 years just to wait for the right time to attack Lauri he's been living of human flesh
“This kid just shows up slaps him around and steals his mask” 😂😂😂😂
3:55 The woman who decided to "hang around" permanently, wasn't a rando, she was the mother of the Boy Michael killed in the 1st movie (2018). The one in the devil costume that tried to kiss Allison after she had the fight with her bf. We know this, because she's wearing the costume he died in . . .
Oscar. I watched all 3 movies today.
Glad someone else saw this
Shit that’s pretty tragic
That's sad af ngl
I was just about to post about this. I've seen a few reviews/explained posts that have gotten it wrong about the woman who hanged herself. Only one I've watched got it right. And the problems in Haddonfield are not just about evil,but also the trauma,the survivors guilt,grief and the need for blame.
I get why the town blames Laurie. There will always be those people who barely understand the situation and need someone to blame especially since Michael is gone and Sartain died so their mind is like why not blame the woman who was obsessing over them
Also taking a feminist perspective, they blame the woman and victim. Rather than blaming the man who intentionally broke out Michael, killed an officer and guided Michael to Laurie
@@minecraftlmafo12 they have been blaming women for every since Adam and Eve. The world HATES women. Even women Hate women 😂
BLAMEMING GAME NEVER WORKXXXX
Yes
Blame a victim of his ? I don’t understand why they blame Laurie at all.
Just came home from the cinema. This movie was confusion lol.
Actually the whole "they needed a new boogieman" is pretty on spot
It's the concept of an "Escape goat". Basically the idea that any society (in this case, the town) needs a "common enemy", something to receive all of their hate, so as to "relieve" those negative feelings. Without someone or something to take blame for whatever, people will start to instead target any tiny detail from *inside* their society and this will inevitably lead to internal conflicts, which threatens their society's stability.
ScapeGoat. Not Escape Goat.
And those bullies were straight out of a 1980s Stephen King novel / movie.
You would be great at Cinema Sins. 🙂
And they are from Maine
Truth.
The lady who hung herself was Oscars mom. She wore his costume while doing it
I actually like that was added
Hanged, a picture would have been hunged
I’ve never been a grief stricken mother on account of being a man so I might not get it but I don’t understand why you’d wear the costume your son was murdered in to commit unalive on yourself
@@Queefersutherland97 its demented
That’s really messed up
This really seems like there was a whole movie between "Kills" and "Ends" that we somehow missed.
I think the scene with Laurie outside of the grocery store was a scene that was used a lot throughout the movie, whenever a character got to feel happiness and Joy immediately something happens to maie them sad or angry like a curse. I think the point of the movie was that the characters still couldnt fully heal their wounds even if they wanted to
40 years and Michael still can't kill her
It was so stupid that Lori was able to trade blows ( fight ) with Michael, fight him and also hold her own.
Michael is unnaturally strong not to mention him not dying easily or at all ( stabbing and .... doesn't do much ). There's no way that old woman was able to win the fight or stand against him for more than a few seconds.
@@cyrusthegreat3299 I love that you feeling so strongly about it that you're copy pasting it everywhere. That's so funny
She’s terminator at this point
Maybe not in this timeline but he’s killed her in at least one
They should have died together
“I despise what Halloween kills did to the franchise, theres no way it can get any worse.”
*Halloween Ends has entered the chat*
It’s gonna end this time I swear

Horror Movies have really become so F'N lame! I watch reviews for most films these days as I really don't want to waste my time!
Got a 2 year old so I only have small slots for Horror Movies! Sometimes there's some absolute GEMS cant complain horror is totally dead haha.
@@cyrusthegreat3299
Halloween Kills: Michael is a literal freak of nature. Obliterating entire hordes of people at a time, including buff firefighters with weapons and an entire town.
Halloween Ends: Michael in the span of a year, becomes a decrepit old sewer junkie who is barely capable of walking, let alone fighting.
This 😂
The lady who hung herself was Oscar’s mom. The kid who got his head punctured on the fence
I think I finally get why she’s no longer paranoid, she spent her whole life trying to prevent her daughters death and saw that it was still futile so she gave and and is taking everything face first
Just watched the trilogy recap yesterday and thought to myself, “I hope he recaps Halloween ends soon.”
I was waiting for him the whole time 😭 after I saw it I was waiting for redlettermedia too but then I thought nah they gonna like it cuz it’s different and they did 😭 I knew foundflix was gonna keep it real 😎
He has a recap but it needs to be updated the one he did was made around before 2018 released. And 3 was a separate video
Maybey Michael died so easily because he passed on the curse to Corey
I can't help but think, Halloween ends would've been great if they just set some of this stuff up in the other two movies. Why couldn't Cory have been introduced in 2018. Maybe flesh out the ' curse Michael seems to be passing on?
I feel like Cory’s story could have been one of the best parts of the franchise if they worked on it more
I agree
Everyone hated when Rob Zombie fleshed out Michael. Halloween knows it’s fans like to hate watch then like later.
you give the creators of these films too much credit. there is zero forethought, just the lust for cash. the horror genre is a joke, there is no truth in this art.
@@adamlouis3725 that's Hollywood for ya , but I wouldn't say horror genre is a " joke " there's great ones with good ideas they just overshadowed
I think he stabbed himself and did the whole “if I can’t have her…” thing because - if Lori’s threatening to expose him to Allyson, making it seem like she’s killed him makes it so Lori won’t have Ally either. Which she’s kind of already lost her by that point anyway.
EDIT: it’s not over. They’ll retcon the whole thing by making it seem like Michael somehow switched Corey’s body with his or something 😭😭
It’s like they wanted to do something like Freddy vs Jason (Freddy uses Jason to kill, spread fear, and gain power which seems similar to Michael and Corey with how Michael seemed to get stronger with killing) and IT Pt2 where “you’re just a man” seemed to have a similar effect as “you’re just a clown”
I really wanted the franchise to end with both Laurie and Michael dying...idk why but because of the years of dedication toward ending one another lives, it would've been a satisfying end in a weird way
Yes I felt that would be inevitable. They would both need to die in order to reset. It feels a waste of 44 years tbh.
I totally agree
Especially since it was announced that this was the last appereance of Laurie or rather Jamie Lee Curtis in the Halloween franchise. They could have made her the hero who sacrifices herself to save her granddaughter. This ending was totally unsatisfying
I’ve been a huge fan my entire life, but this movie was trash. How does Michael go from brawling like Chuck Norris to a drunk guy at a bar? Too many how’s in a negative way here. I think I’m going to buy the first 3 and say that’s it when I show my kids. The last one never happened in my mind.
@@bomber9912 Laurie sacrificing her self would’ve been so satisfying. Laurie holding down Michael in a fire or in a explosion boom
And then Laurie woke up from her dream. Realizing that she inhaled too much smoke from the fire. There she was with her daughter and grand baby at the back of the pick up. Micheal died in the house fire. The end
They had great themes and ideas but should have introduced Corey in the of Halloween 2018 and explore the shape changing its shape as evil does
I mean I'm conflicted about Michael's end. One one hand, the fight is great between him and Laurie and I love how the town came together in the end to dispose of Michael's body. But just having his neck and wrist slit? That's the blow that finally does Michael in? I mean I'm glad it was Laurie who ended it. Just thought that maybe she'd stab him in the head at least.
She stabbed him in the heart from under his arm
@@paluckisteven she stabbed into his right side. she stabbed his lungs
I think by slitting his throat and wrist should tell us that, yes Micheal is just an old man wearing a mask and he can be killed like every other person (even if he literally survived a burning house and the beating of hislifestime...xD)
Seeing Michael die in general just doesn’t do it for me… I’ve seen him go through too much damage for any possible death to make sense.
I thought they were gonna dump his body in a lake and we were gonna get a Friday the 13th part 6 "zombie jason" type reboot with michael myers
Cory's mom reminds me of Carrie's mom. And we all know how Carrie turned out. lol. This movie was so different, but interesting. I did like the ending. But it was like two movies in one. I'm sure there will be another reboot in a couple of years. So until then...💜💜
After 5 years from now, I want a director to step up and make a new Halloween Ends. I want them to do the same thing that Halloween (2018) did; ignore every past movies and continue from a movie. In this case, continue from Halloween Kills. Maybe it’ll be a better Halloween Ends.
Dude I thought that exact thing 😆
That’d be great and all but half of the actors are already old as hell. Another half-full decade and the timeline will make even less sense. This is pretty much it for anything other than a spin-off, which sucks ass. Hollywood needs to get its shit together.
@@alexanderstrickland9036 I agree. Also, who knows if Jamie Lee is wanting to do another Halloween spin-off. I’m thinking she is going to be done with the series, which this movie was a huge let down for her and her character ngl.
@@nutsinyomoufth1428 I’m fine with her not returning. Honestly I was against her return for this last batch of movies.
Michael would be 71 if it's a direct sequel to the original from 50 years ago by 2028
This movie felt like a fanfic written by the writers of Season 1 Riverdale and the original script got swapped with this one
All ima say is that at the end of Halloween kills, Michael goes toe to toe with like 20 people all armed with bats, crowbars, and even a gun. He gets bashed in the head repeatedly, he gets shot in the chest literally 6 times by a revolver at close range, yet he still gets up and kills everybody, pretty much confirming he is an immortal embodiment of pure evil. Then In this movie they throw that all away and turned him into a normal ass old man who gets slapped around by Corey, Laurie, and Alyson.
literally every person in every Halloween movie when they interact with Laurie “yer aff yer heid”
Great review. Hoping you got Barbarian on the list as well.
I’d love to see him do barbarian!
It was like dude was confused when he made this movie and kills. They made the whole town go insane over a guy nobody seen in 40 years Laurie with them, he turns into Jason in kills then they throw all of that out in the next movie. Then the weirdest shit happens besides Corey existing.. why would Laurie stop being prepared for Michael if he disappeared after killing her daughter? It's like they had their movies mixed up and out of order
Did anybody catch what Jeremy told Corey which got completed muted. Also did anybody see how this kid has the uncanny ability to move like Michael or that of the children of the damn. He pops open the front door and the back door then ends up @ the top of the the ultra high steps? What kind of scarrying skills are those? Looks like michael was looking for Corey.
I mean Laurie could have tried to move on from Michael. If anything feels realistic that some would try to move on from these kinds of tragedies. Really, I feel what people overlook is that the whole of Haddonfield was corrupt. They always needed to have some Boogeyman to blame for their problems whether it be Michael or Corey. Even Laurie is blamed for Michael's actions due to her being the sole survivor of his rampage. To think about it, Haddonfield is almost like some Lovecraftian nightmare where evil festers underneath the surface but eventually, evil leaks out driving the town into murderous savagery.
So basically the evil the town harbored mainfested in physical form in Michael, infected Corey, will be inevitably be reborn in a new face.
Evil never dies.
keyword here is "try" considering the first in this trilogy picks up after the original film with not much info given on what happened in such a long time between, plus the fact that Laurie had in fact started a family at some point to have her daughter, it's most likely that she tried to move on from it but ultimately failed, especially since she knew for a fact that Michael was still alive. Lots of people in real life try to move past their trauma but are unable and end up carrying it for the rest of their lives. That said, if they were gonna use this theme, it would have been nice for them to actually elaborate a bit of what happened during the time gap to give it more weight.
@@nagi7995 Personally, I'd rather not be spoon-fed. Ultimately, I feel that if anything, Laurie was trying to do better by raising Allyson instead of just going after Michael. She already lost her daughter; makes sense to me that she would want to do right by Allyson by trying to let her Boogeyman go.
@@robby7499 Laurie straight up says that she tried to move on and forgive Michael but she couldn’t…
This would be like a youngling beating up Darth Vader and taking his lightsaber in Return of the Jedi.
And making it look easy too. Like the moment he called Michael an old man in a mask, I almost turned the movie off. If Corey could just man handle Michael then what’s the point of watching the rest of the movie
As I was watching this I was sure that Allie was going to end up killing Corey…like she could sense his evil and kept herself close to him to see if it would take over. I would’ve changed my whole opinion of the movie

Been waiting for you too make this since the movie released. Can’t wait too watch. Happy Halloween
Love the funny idea
Of Micheal Holding on to Cory lovingly sitting behind On the Bike🤣🤣🤣🙏🏻🙏🏻😂😂
Corey was like "the town made a monster out of me for an accident, i'm angry and sad and you know why? i'm gonna prove myself and to them that.....they're right, i'm a monster, a killer" Not a way to end this trilogy nor a Halloween movie.
Oh boy have this movie been divisive. And the makers of this almost new that it was going to be so they even went with the old color scheme and lettering of Halloween 3 Season of the Witch. It's a complete 180 from the killfest of Halloween Kills. But they do sort of imply that the spirit and influence of Michael Myers affects the behavior of the townspeople of Haddonfield much like Pennywise does for Derry Maine.
OMG great hair! been a follower for a few years, interesting to see how you have personally evolved. Thanks for the recap, always entertaining.🙂
cant forget Michael briefly let Busta Rhymes go lol even had Mike confused "I left the back door unlocked!! thats what i did" lmao
Just watched this with my wife 10 minutes before you uploaded this vid haha. This has been an amazing Halloween 🎃 now we get to watch you explain it. Love it!
Yeah I thought this was going to be some kind of Twisted Love Story prequel and I was actually getting into it until the poor kid Jammed the knife through his throat and then I was just like SO that happened and that was it😂
Which i fucking hated. Why kill him off and self suicide if we spent 2-3 hours caring for him and sticking with him. Makes no sense. They coulda set him up for Michael in the new movies they make but ig not
That was so ridiculously disappointing. I was like....wait so that whole rollercoaster with Cory was for nothing.......?
Halloween 2018 was so sick and somehow we ended up here
FoundFlix hasn’t shown up on my feed in months! Glad this popped back up today.
They need to reshoot this movie.

Been watching your videos since quarantine. Thank you for everything you do!!
21:25 yea when he stripped mike of his mask I was like “this kid fr finna PUNK Michael Myers….okay this movie was already wild fuck it”😂💯
I would love if you did a video on the new jeepers creepers reborn, its probably thee worst quarantine movie made 😂
"I hope you find love" is the best part of the whole movie. I laughed so hard at that scene.
Remember. Michael Meyers is just evil Ebola!
Feels like this movie was trying to go in 3 separate directions, and just kinda failed at all of them.
There was some potential with Corey, but it just went nowhere
I wouldn't have minded Corey taking over as The Shape with a love interest/rival in Laurie's granddaughter and possibly maybe Allison giving birth a kid who may or may not have the killer instinct. I believe they could have shown the transition with Corey intruding on Michael's kills. Then have a double showdown or something with Michael and Laurie offing each other and then passing the torch to Corey and Allison. I was fine with the romantic elements but they didn't pay off with a new Shape which I thought they were for sure going for.
“Evil never dies, it only changes shape.” Like a blob of goo holding a knife.
I’d watch it.
This movie was hot garbage, we spent an hour pissing around with Corey for him to not even take the myers mantle for a new few slashers, we may as well just have had a massive clash between Michael and Laurie one final time, also why was Michael immortal in the last film just for him to be bumbling around in the sewers for 5 years ... makes NO SENSE !!!
Would love to hear you cover the Netflix show Cabinet of Curiosities. I loved almost every episode they were very good some better than others but some of the best short horror films I’ve seen. If not all of the at least cover The Viewing it was soooo good
Is that any good? I kinda thought it was a kiddy thing?
@@jennsimpson_backup3333 i enjoyed it a lot. Every episode was so unique and interesting. Not really any jump scares, every episode just does a great job at setting up a horror mood. It doesn’t hit on a lot of horror cliches that most films do nowadays. My only complaint is I wish the episodes were longer.
Love the videos you make def a1 content. Your next ending exp should definitely be the new hellraiser. It was such a great and unsettling piece of art.
I always took for granted that Corey was posessed by Michael Myers and the movie was about Michael trying to get to Lauries grand daughter. We are watching M.M. the entire time in a new body.
If he possessed him, why did the kid push Michael around in the sewers?
The movie just didnt make any sense considering the previous films and the lore that comes with this boogeyman overall
@@bomber9912 Pushing around the old body. It really made quite a bit of sense to me. Michael was looking for a new host because he was to weakened the kid let Michael in because he was sick of being a bitch lol the only thing i didn't like was not seeing laurie come to realize Cory was actually Michael. There was a couple of things that turned me off but the overall story made sense to me. I liked it.
@@EMO_alpha That "old body" slaughtered half the neighborhood after they seemingly broke every bone in him... Thats what i mean with incompatibility. I rather see Halloween Kills canonic than this movie. Michael Myers is in my opinion not supposed to be a human or a body that is possessed by something. Hes supposed to be evil in itself. Thats why in the original movies Loomis called him "It". There is no flesh. Its an entitiy. They totally missed that mark for me here.
@@bomber9912 Yeah, he was left weakened after the end of the last one and crawled off to hibernate. And yeah, Michael is an entity or an evil force. Hence spreading to Corey. He had one host and then spread to take over Corey like a virus. And wasn't Michael Lauries brother? That would take a body probably. I am sorry you didn't like the movie i don't know what tell you. I did and i thought it made more sense than it didn't.
@@EMO_alpha Why was he weakened? That is the whole issue. This is something that was incinuated in this film NOT in Halloween Kills. In Halloween Kills Michael was 100% fine at the end. Also the whole brother thing came after the old Halloween movies. Like Halloween 4+. Dont really remember when that was introduced, but it doesnt have any influence on this topic anyway. But if we take all the other movies into consideration: Michael never acted like a virus, cause he is not. He is the embodiment evil. Evil does not need to search for another body, because it is not human to begin with.
Terrifier 2 Next?!?
After marathoning all Halloween films here my thoughts on the H40 timeline
The first film (Halloween 2018) is about trauma and how people exploit it in their obsession of understanding evil. The second film (Halloween Kills) is about how fear brings out our worst and most animalistic nature as well as revenge/vigilante justice is nothing but a harmful and blinding fantasy. The third film (Halloween Ends) is about paranoia and hate does nothing but create new boogeyman in our society. Michael Myers isn't the only one and evil doesn't die with him in fact evil can take any shape manifest anywhere paranoia and a lack of compassion just gives it power. This trilogy is about trauma and tragedy how it breeds paranoia and fear about how the only way we can overcome is finding resolve.
you're giving this trash too much credit
@@iCipher this is only good things I can say about this trilogy but can't fix issues with Kills and Ends while I do give credit they tried something different but man we wanted Michael and Laurie to be main focus in Ends as it should have been the entire time after all that build up
@@iCipher true, but let's not act like every film in the franchise isn't also pretty bad besides a couple.
As a person who did move from their hometown to get away from bad things and thoughts, it is hard to start a new life. If I didn't get to move back in with my parents at 28 when they moved where they did. I would of have not made it. So not leaving the hometown and the scary that follows makes complete sense.
Honestly, I can see what they were trying to go for and the concept is interesting. That Michael is in fact just a man, a very disturbed and physically able man but a man nonetheless. That the town’s people and Laurie , and even Michael himself believing that he was something more was what gave him that perceived power, like a wide scale placebo effect and Laurie finally kills him for good when she realises and accepts that he is in fact mortal. Does that make the trilogy good movies? Hell no, with the exemption of the first as a decent standalone popcorn horror. So many things needed to be executed better like better exploring the theme so that the difference between Michael at his peak in the 2nd and the weakened Michael in 3 wouldnt be so jarring. Something definitely needed to be there to bridge that, show cracks appear in his mysticism. Corey also definitely needed to have been established at the start and have his arc fleshed out across all 3 films. Ultimately, the trilogy is just decent and interesting ideas that could have worked that needed better and more cohesive movies for them
I actually kinda liked this movie it showed that when people lose a monster they’ll find a new monster but there were definitely some bad parts but Cory was definitely a decent character and Jeremy’s dad had one of the best quotes in the movie “they took my pain and turned it into themselves” that’s what I felt this movie wanted to show people will take others pain and make it their own and make a new monster whenever the first disappears. Allison kinda sucked not gonna lie but the rest was pretty good in my opinion the kills especially were fucking awesome
So Jeremy’s dad being in two scenes and saying a line you like makes it a good movie? And Corey died at the end for no reason which again is another reason the movie sucked. But I guess one character and a quote is all it takes for some people
@@Cheerstothewildones I never said that man, the message is what makes it a good movie if you read that part instead of only reading that part that makes your point makes sense you would understand that and if you don’t like the movie that’s fine but you don’t have to insult the reasons a person does like the movie that’s just shallow and makes you seem like a shitty person who can’t handle other’s opinions on media

I didn't particularly like the film at all. I thought Kills was okay -- definitely watchable with some good points to it that I enjoyed -- but I had a lot of hang-ups with it, too.
Ends, however, was a real drag just for me to get through. I didn't find Corey to be a particularly compelling or likeable character that I could get emotionally invested in as a protagonist *or* villain. Allyson became likewise an absolute pain every time she was on-screen and their romance arc... don't even get me started. All of the glorious cinematography from the 2018 film was gone, along with any hint of solid writing (especially in regards to dialogue). I think the acting took a noticeable hit, too.
I know they were trying to deal with some heavy themes in regard to cycles of violence, persecution, and depression but IMO the execution fell flat and short of the mark, at least for me. Largely sidelining the franchise golden boy until practically the last ten minutes of the movie was a weird creative choice, especially since I already had qualms about how Michael's character had been handled by this continuity.
To each their own, of course. I'm genuinely glad others were able to enjoy it. It just wasn't my cup of tea. I had high hopes and expectations as Halloween 2018 is IMO one of the best slasher films in recent history and Ends came out on my birthday and was filmed near me. But it didn't tick many boxes for me, unfortunately.
@@SaftonYT I definitely understand and to each their own media shouldn’t always be enjoyed or hated by everyone if it was there would be no room for improvement or opinions on movies and I completely understand about the romance arc I can definitely see how that was incredibly boring and I’m glad that people have their opinions on it and that we’re able to enjoy or not enjoy media without going at each other’s throats. It was definitely not what I expected either on my first watch I was disappointed that micheal and lorie’s showdown was not the main plot point however on later viewings it definitely grew on me. I agree that 2018 was an incredible movie and I was really hoping the rest of the trilogy would be like 2018 but sadly we didn’t particularly get that.
You really went in on them in this one 😂
It was deserved. Great video!
I wanted more for this movie it was so dragged out to get to the point
well happy I don't have to waist tie seeing this one. FoundFlix is taking one for the team, yet again.
“I hope you find love “ tells me that the dad wasn’t in love with the mom
If Korey had been a protagonists in one, and the babysitting incident was shown then or in #2 so we had time to know and love him before being saddened by his corruption

The end of "Halloween Ends" is the start of Chris Moltisanti's "CLEAVER".
Michael went from taking down a entire fire department with a axe to this movie a kid takes him down and takes his mask with minimum effort. The total lack of respect for Myers in this movie really took me out
See, what really bothers me about this trilogy is they say it erases everything after 1 but treat it like the whole damn series happened. Why would Laurie live in fear for 40 years after a guy in a mask killed a couple of people? I live in Newfoundland, the literal least violent place on earth. I know a guy who, in his youth, killed 3 people and tried to kill himself. He lived in a small town of about 500 people. He got out (after a long, long time in prison) and lives back there now. He doesn't have any friends but the town moved on and nobody's afraid of the guy. Anyway, it's too far fetched for me and I believe that 1 through H20 was the (far) better timeline. Even if they just left them as siblings, Laurie could feel responsible for him and prepare. When H18 startef, he wasn't even an effective killer, two of his would-be victims escaped. The fuck is everyone on about?
Tldr; they needed these films to take place before '18 to justify the fear and panic everyone is feeling. Original timeline (minus Resurrection) was far superior.
This "ending" to the trilogy didn’t feel like an ending AT ALL. I’m not really like hardcore fan of Halloween (the movies) I just liked watching it because of my stepdad. But I really liked the first two movies. It just felt like I was watching a romance movie with Allyson’s character. The kills weren’t even that prominent. And how the heck did they kill Michael that easy and quick if we saw in Halloween Kills that Michael murdered so many townspeople???
I just wanna know how Michael got to that doctors house with Corey lol was he holding him tight and playing with his ears on the back of his bike like Allyson
Went to go watch this in theaters, best nap of my life.

Haven’t even seen the actual movie yet, but after watching this summary it looks like they butchered Michael Myers as a character
Man you really fell off huh
Ben waiting for this! Happy Halloween y’all 🎃
He really should rename this series to: Entire movie summarized.
My guy nice hairstyle looking hella fresh. Love your videos. Have a good one.
I think the provoked Michael thing was meant as Laurie "provoked" him that night 40 years ago.
You know, if you want your new killer to be scary, maybe don’t open with him being a grown man bullied by high school band geeks.
You should do a video on Smile. Just watched it and it actually had some unnerving and a couple of scares that got me.
Saying "Just move" is like telling DV victims to "Just leave".
I felt like when Michael grabbed him he gave him his energy cause Corey changed personalities after that and then later on at the end michael took his power back soon as he saw that Laurie was homie target
Made the movie goofy
the only thing that bugged me about this movie was the writing!!! Everything FoundFlix pointed out was spot on. Some dialogue were so cringy and forceful too.
Thank you for reviewing this! I have been waiting since they announced Halloween Ends was coming out for your ending explained so I can consider if I want to see the movie 😂
Watch them make a sequel where a Michael obsessed fan-girl gets all his shredded body & reassembles it like a Rubik’s cube. Then uses a dark druid spell it revive him..only for Michael to be mad he was brought back, so he grabs her and puts both themselves in the grinder alive.
I'm personally satisfied with this ending even if it ain't perfect I still appreciate the story it constructed
It was so stupid that Lori was able to trade blows ( fight ) with Michael, fight him and also hold her own.
Michael is unnaturally strong not to mention him not dying easily or at all ( stabbing and .... doesn't do much ). There's no way that old woman was able to win the fight or stand against him for more than a few seconds.
Wanna date? I'm wildly mediocre and average too
@@cyrusthegreat3299 but what if she ✨️believed in herself super hard✨️
Agreed.
The movie was simply okay. It's nowhere near as bad as many claim it to be.
The concept of Corey becoming the new Shape should've been built up over the course of all 3 movies so that we don't need to spend Movie 3 telling his entire story.
If you appreciate how it was constructed then you must have really really extremely low standards and your life must suck
This whole movie felt like a crazy '80s horror movie, for me in the best way. I think that the director took a lot of intentional inspiration from John Carpenter and his films. This movie almost feels more in the spirit of what Carpenter wanted to do for the sequels: an anthology about evil taking place on Halloween. I totally see why people don't like this movie, I just happen to like it 🤷
Same here!!!
Low Iq people like it
This movie is awful lol
I liked it too😂
Laurie in HK after her daughter is brutally murdered: I'm coming for you
Laurie in HE: Gosh I sure love baking hehe
So, one of the OG movie slashers that helped kick-start the genre as a whole, resorted to nicking plot points from "Candyman" and following the failing trend of sidelining the original cast and characters in favour of younger, more "relatable" characters that have none of the staying power.
Poor franchise just can't catch a break, can it?
Half expected Cory to turn to the camera and say: "I'm Cory Skywalker."
The lady who hung herself id Oscar’s mother . She even had the costume on he wore the night he died . Took me a couple times to catch that
