While we continue waiting for Halloween Ends to bring Jamie Lee Curtis back to theaters (and Peacock!) as Laurie Strode one more time on October 14, the movie’s official website has launched a fun retro-style “Escape Michael Myers” video game this week.
The game is simple, tasking you with helping Laurie Strode out-run Michael Myers, avoiding obstacles and picking up weapons along the way. It’s similar to many different web-based video games we’ve seen in recent years, with a Halloween Ends skin grafted onto it.
And it’s quite fun! How long can you Escape Michael Myers? Play now to find out!
Here’s the official plot synopsis for Halloween Ends: “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), 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.”
Nick Castle, the original Michael Myers, had recently noted that Halloween Ends will be a “surprising” conclusion to David Gordon Green‘s trilogy, while makeup effects artist Chris Nelson similarly teased that the third installment in the trilogy is “weird” and “different.” And John Carpenter had also called the new movie a “departure” in a recent interview.
Halloween Ends will also feature the return of Will Patton as Officer Frank Hawkins, Kyle Richards as Lindsey Wallace and James Jude Courtney as The Shape/Michael Myers.
