Synopsis:

Minutes after Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis), her daughter Karen (Judy Greer) and granddaughter Allyson (Andi Matichak) left masked monster Michael Myers (James Jude Courtney) caged and burning in the basement, Laurie is rushed to the hospital with life-threatening injuries, believing she finally killed her lifelong tormentor. But when Michael manages to free himself from Laurie's trap, his local massacre continues. As Laurie fights her pain and prepares to defend herself against him, a group of other survivors (Anthony Michael Hall, Kyle Richards, Nancy Stephens, Charles Cyphers) of Michael's first rampage decide to take matters into their own hands, forming a vigilante mob that sets out to hunt Michael down, once and for all. Evil will finally die.

Intentions:

I have some kind of thoughts regarding the Blumhouse trilogy for Halloween. 2018 started on a great note, Kills was okay, but Ends was bad. The big problem comes from studio greed thanks to greenlighting TWO sequels rather than just one. I had a feeling that Kills originally was going to be the finale given how it feels like some of its ideas may have been forced to be cut for an additional film, making it a trilogy rather than a duology. But what if we were only going to get one sequel? What if we were going to have a Blumhouse duology that makes up a trilogy when paired with the 1978 classic? Enter Halloween: Evil Dies Tonight, a merge cut aiming to combine Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends into one viewing experience. I trimmed out various scenes depicting stupidity in the town of Haddonfield, speeding up some sections of the plot, and ensuring a proper finality for Michael and Laurie. And yes, "evil dies tonight" usage is cut down from nearly 30 uses to just two.
