David Gordon-Green was doing fine, he was actually doing a good job with this trilogy. Reboot after reboot, all of them with obnoxious endings (If ending means just forgetting about the franchise and making another reboot). The David Gordon-Green's trilogy actually felt like a refreshing new take on the saga, making it more coherent and following a unique route. More like a normal saga than the overall episodic slasher saga.
And he was doing fine... Halloween (2018) was the best Halloween film since the original one, and Kills was cool and enjoyable (even if the ending was anticlimatic and incoherent). But Ends was meant to be the "End" of the Halloween saga, and my god... I was hyped.
My hype and my trust into David Gordon-Green ended on a unnecessary, lame, boring, dispicable, disrespectful, putrid and sad excuse for a film that ruined my whole October!!! It broke me so hard that I really hoped that this was just one big stupid joke, but it wasn't.
Michael was barely a cameo, a sad cameo of an old fragile man who gets beaten up so easily, I still have my doubts considering "that" as the real Michael Myers.
The AlissonxCorey subplot was unbearable, idiotic and a lame excuse to portray "a new version of evil, in the shape of Corey". Have you even watched Halloween 4 to confirm that as a H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E idea?
And Jamie... poor Jamie. I feel so awfully bad about Jamie, she (along with Donald Pleascence) was the other half of Halloween, as crucial as Michael Myers can be. And she ended up making the worst possible "finale" of the saga since that stupid kiss in Resurrection.
It pains me to see the most inspirational indie film ever made, to slowly die as the worst way possible.
This ain't the end of Halloween, of course not. Greedy producers will always make Mike come back from the grave to squish and keep squishing his image till there's nothing left from him. But Ends was supposed to be special, to be something else, apart from the ordinary slasher formula.
My october is ruined, I hope you are happy DGG... cause I ain't. And many fans around the world, ain't too.
