Halloween Ends' time jump smartly breezed over the real-life pandemic the world faced in early 2020, which goes unacknowledged by the movie, despite David Gordon Green's previous statements. Halloween Ends made a fantastic decision regarding its time jump following the events of Halloween Kills — even if it was a lie. Aside from its prologue, Halloween Ends takes place four years after the events of the previous two Halloween movies, which took place on Halloween night in 2018. As part of that time jump, the movie's director and co-writer, David Gordon Green, claimed that Halloween Ends would acknowledge the real-life COVID-19 pandemic before its release. Green explained that not only would Laurie Strode have to deal with the continuing trauma of a free Michael Myers, but she would also have to deal with the struggles of a pandemic-stricken Haddonfield. However, when Halloween Ends was released in October 2022, there was no mention of the pandemic. Between the time of Green's pandemic comments and the release of Halloween Ends, plans to directly acknowledge the pandemic changed. Instead, the movie treated evil and paranoia as infectious diseases that were infecting the Haddonfield community in Halloween Ends, especially concerning the character of Corey Cunningham (Rohan Campbell). Ultimately, Halloween Ends made the right decision in not acknowledging the pandemic in its time jump, as many other horror movies have shown that dealing with the pandemic often comes across as exploitative to audiences. Why Was The Pandemic Left Out Of Halloween Ends? There are several potential reasons why the controversial final cut of Halloween Ends left out the COVID-19 pandemic. For one thing, the pandemic itself altered the release schedule of the last two films in David Gordon Green's Halloween trilogy. Halloween Kills was initially set to release in October 2020, but the pandemic caused the release dates of both Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends to be pushed back by a year. During this time, Green and Halloween Ends' other co-writers had time to alter the movie to cut the pandemic references. For example, Kyle Richard's Lindsey Wallace was not initially set to return for Halloween Ends, but after how well-received her performance was in Halloween Kills, she was written into the concluding chapter of the trilogy. Green also considered multiple endings for Halloween Ends, including an ending that referenced the Silver Shamrock masks in Halloween III: Season of the Witch. This added production time meant that Green had plenty of opportunities to delete any pandemic references from the final cut of Halloween Ends. Why It's Good Halloween Ends Didn't Acknowledge The Pandemic Halloween Ends not directly acknowledging the pandemic was actually a fantastic creative decision. COVID-19 resulted in many movies, especially in the horror genre, about the pandemic, such as the Michael Bay-produced Songbird. However, many of these movies were criticized as being exploitative and unnecessary. Halloween Ends avoided this level of criticism by not directly acknowledging the pandemic. Halloween Ends also had its own themes of how evil and paranoia can spread in a community, like a viral pandemic. Corey Cunningham is infected by Michael Myers' evil and goes on to similarly spread terror and murder across Haddonfield. The town, before the death of Michael Myers, is a shadow of its former self, with many residents still suffering as a result of Michael's 2018 killing spree. Directly acknowledging the real-life COVID-19 pandemic would have distracted Halloween Ends from exploring these interesting and different ideas.

Tyler Stout Takes a Stab at John Carpenter's Halloween ● The Exorcist Reboot ● What If John Carpenter & Debra Hill Never Created Halloween? Take a master of horror, add a master of posters, and connect them with an iconic psychopathic killer. The result is John Carpenter’s Halloween, as reimagined by artist Tyler Stout. So far, the film is still in very early development, so no exact release date has been announced yet. The only individuals attached to the project are Blum and Green, who previously directed the 2018 "Halloween" sequel. That film ignored the events of other "Halloween" sequels and reboots, instead of acting as a direct follow-up to John Carpenter's classic 1978 film. It was a box office success that was considered a successful rejuvenation of the franchise, and the two creatives clearly hope to do the same for the "Exorcist" films. What if John Carpenter & Debra Hill Never Created The Original Halloween? Most people would agree that John Carpenter’s Halloween is a legitimate masterpiece. Long before anyone was scared of Elm Street or Crystal Lake, the film basically invented the slasher genre. And while it’s easy to say how great it is, it’s harder to watch the film and point out exactly why that is. Thankfully, almost every single frame of Halloween backs up its greatness. Carpenter’s film is simple, subtle, and built to terrify you by showing as little as possible. It’s way more Jaws than it is Jason or Freddy. Most movies start with some silence or simple music over the opening credits., but Halloween goes a step further. The instant the movie starts, Carpenter’s now iconic score starts being drilled into your head, along with a jack-o-lantern on a black screen. As the music plays and the credits roll, the camera slowly gets closer to the jack-o-lantern so that, with each passing second there are more details. Its uneven teeth, cuts, and burns on the side, a slice from the nose to mouth, the guts inside. It’s a slow-paced, unsettling reveal and the movie hasn’t even really started yet. Here’s how it starts. SUBSCRIBE TODAY ? https://www.youtube.com/scottkennard40 My other vlogging channel https://www.youtube.com/midlifeloser My Freelance Videography & Video Editorial Company.
