Halloween Ends (Horror, Thriller)
Golden Globe and BAFTA winner Jamie Lee Curtis (the “Halloween” franchise, “Scream Queens”) is back as Laurie Strode in “Halloween Ends,” debuting on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on Tuesday, Dec. 27, from Universal Pictures Home Entertainment. The movie is also now available to own on Digital and is currently streaming on Peacock.
The most acclaimed and revered horror franchise in film history reaches its epic, terrifying finale as Laurie Strode (Curtis) faces off for the last time against the embodiment of evil, Michael Myers (James Jude Courtney). Michael hasn’t been seen for four years after the events of “Halloween Kills.” Laurie lives with her granddaughter Allyson (Andi Matichak) and has chosen to liberate herself from fear and rage and embrace life. When a young man is accused of killing a boy he was babysitting, a cascade of violence and terror is ignited with a final confrontation between Laurie and Michael unlike any ever captured on-screen. Only one of them will survive.
