David Gordon Green has now directed four horror movies between the Halloween and The Exorcist franchises, and they all vary widely in quality.
David Gordon Green has directed four horror movies since his first foray into the genre in 2018, and they're each very different in terms of their quality. The American filmmaker made his name with independent dramas in the early 2000s with George Washington and All the Real Girls. Later, he branched out into mainstream comedy movies and TV shows, including Pineapple Express and The Righteous Gemstones.
Leslie Odom Jr. dives into his meaty role as photographer Victor Fielding and does a grand job, and it's great to see original The Exorcist stars Ellen Burstyn and Linda Blair reprising their roles and Chris and Regan MacNeil. However, as much as it admirably tries to take this franchise back to its chilling roots, it's far too derivative and lacks fresh ideas. Perhaps more importantly, it just isn't scary.
Many viewers were perplexed by Halloween Ends, citing its many metaphors, confusing plot, joylessness, and the missed opportunity to give Michael Myers a proper starring send-off being among its many problems. However, that's probably harsh. Sure, it was unexpected and subversive, but criticism would have been far more severe had the franchise signed off with something painstakingly predictable.
