John Carpenter Releases Haunting New Score He Composed For HALLOWEEN ENDS
John Carpenter has released a new score that he composed with Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies for Halloween Ends. It’s titled “The Junk Yard” and it’s a haunting and chilling piece of music that fits right in with the Halloween franchise that Carpenter created.
This is from the album "Halloween Ends OST", which will be released digitally on October 14th and physically on January 20th on Sacred Bones Records.
This is Laurie Strode’s last stand.
After 45 years, the most acclaimed, revered horror franchise in film history reaches its epic, terrifying conclusion as Laurie Strode faces off for the last time against the embodiment of evil, Michael Myers, in a final confrontation unlike any captured on-screen before. Only one of them will survive.
Icon Jamie Lee Curtis returns for the last time as Laurie Strode, horror’s first “final girl” and the role that launched Curtis’ career. Curtis has portrayed Laurie for more than four decades now, one of the longest actor-character pairings in cinema history. When the franchise relaunched in 2018, Halloween shattered box office records, becoming the franchise’s highest-grossing chapter set a new record for the biggest opening weekend for a horror film starring a woman.
Four years after the events of last year’s Halloween Kills, Laurie is living with her granddaughter Allyson (Andi Matichak) and is finishing writing her memoir. Michael Myers hasn’t been seen since. Laurie, after allowing the specter of Michael to determine and drive her reality for decades, has decided to liberate herself from fear and rage and embrace life. But when a young man, Corey Cunningham (Rohan Campbell; The Hardy Boys, Virgin River), is accused of killing a boy he was babysitting, it ignites a cascade of violence and terror that will force Laurie to finally confront the evil she can’t control, once and for all.
Halloween Ends stars returning cast members Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode, Andi Matichak, Will Patton as Officer Frank Hawkins, Kyle Richards as Lindsey Wallace, and James Jude Courtney as The Shape. The movie was directed by David Gordon-Green and it hits theaters on October 14th, 2022.
