Finally closing the chapter on Laurie Strode and Michael Myers, the Halloween sequel trilogy is coming to an end with one final confrontation.

Halloween Ends Rating, Run Time, Plot
Halloween Ends has a run time of 111 minutes and is rated R for “strong bloody violence throughout, grisly images, and language.” This is a Halloween horror slasher flick, after all.
Halloween Ends sees the return of Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode, who managed to survive Michael Myers’ killing spree in the original 1978 film, with the new film starting off four years after Strode’s last confrontation with the masked murderer. The new film also features a cameo from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, Kyle Richards, who returns as Lindsey Wallace, one of the kids Laurie babysat in the first Halloween film.
The rest of the Halloween Ends cast includes James Jude Courtney, Andi Matichak, Will Patton, and Kyle Richards, with James Jude Courtney and Nick Castle as Michael Meyers / The Shape.
Per the Peacock plot description, “four years after her last encounter with masked killer Michael Myers, Laurie Strode is living with her granddaughter and trying to finish her memoir. Myers hasn’t been seen since, and Laurie finally decides to liberate herself from rage and fear and embrace life. However, when a young man stands accused of murdering a boy that he was babysitting, it ignites a cascade of violence and terror that forces Laurie to confront the evil she can’t control.”
