Jamie Lee Curtis returns to face the essence of evil again in Halloween Kills

So, where were we?

2018s Halloween saw a fiery climax with Michael Myers seemingly trapped in the basement of a burning building after a confrontation with Laurie and her lineage. With the help of her Daughter and Granddaughter, a wounded Laurie stumbles out to the road as they attempt to flag down help. Which is exactly where the sequels trailer picks up from.

Mob vs Myers

As the Strodes escape in the back of a pickup truck, Laurie screams at passing fire truck en route to Myers burning prison. The timeline skipping Halloween (1978) sequel, Halloween (2018) was met with critical and commercial praise, breaking the record for highest grossing slasher film accumulating $255 million worldwide.

The inevitable continuation of the franchise sees Myers return from the fire and continue his hunt for Laurie, though according to one particular shot, this time Laurie has backup.

Old names new faces
