Coming off the heels of a big week in finales both She-Hulk and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power bowed their last season-one episodes is a brand-new Ryan Murphy show (no, not Dahmer), a final slasher showdown, a comedic take on Shakespeare, and a Palme dOr winner wide-releasing in theaters. So grab your popcorn and flip on one of these films (or the lone television show):

Laurie Strode and Michael Myers are in for one last dance. The two have been tussling since 1978, and its about time this beef ends. Blumhouse and director David Gordon Greens rebooted trilogy has had its ups (Halloween) and its downs (Halloween Kills), so itll be intriguing to see where Halloween Ends lands on the scale. But no matter what, people are going to want to see Jamie Lee Curtis slay one last time in this franchise.

The story of Romeo and Juliet has been told and retold many times, but director Karen Maines film wants to go a different route with the classic Shakespearean tale. Kaitlyn Dever stars as Rosaline, Romeos jilted ex, as she schemes to get her former lover back.

Ruben stlunds Palme dOrwinning satire is now out in theaters, ready to make our stomachs turn. The film follows an elite model and social-media star couple (played by Harris Dickinson and the late Charlbi Dean) as they set off on a cruise ship with an eclectic cast of characters (like Captain Smith, played by Woody Harrelson).
