16 Movies To See In October: ‘Tár,’ ‘Aftersun,’ ‘Amsterdam,’ ‘Banshees’ & More

Halloween Ends
Having persevered for decades, the horror saga is taking its last (for now) breath in “Halloween Ends.” Jamie Lee Curtis returns as Laurie Strode four years since her last encounter with Michael Myers as she’s finishing her memoir. Despite Myers having not been seen since a local murder case thrusts her back into confronting the evil from her past. David Gordon Green directs with a script by Green, Danny McBridePaul Brad Logan, and Chris BernierAndi MatichakJames Jude Courtney, and Will Patton also star. 
Release Date: October 14 in theaters via Universal Pictures and 60 days simultaneously streaming for paid Peacock subscriptions.

“Till”
Critically acclaimed for her arresting 2019 movie “Clemency,” which gave her the overdue distinction of being the first black woman to win the U.S. Dramatic Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, filmmaker Chinonye Chukwu returns with “Till,” the tragic story of Emmett Till, his horrific and brutal lynching, his mother, an activist who never stopped pursuing justice for her son, and the civil rights movement. Starring Danielle Deadwyler as Mamie Till and Jalyn Hall as Emmett Till, alongside Frankie Faison, Haley Bennett, and Whoopi Goldberg, by all accounts, it is challenging subject material, but the film is said to be terrific, and Deadwyler is a breakout star (read our review).
Release Date: October 14 via United Artists Releasing.

The Good Nurse
Jessica Chastain and Eddie Redmayne star in “The Good Nurse” from “Another Round” writer Tobias Lindholm. Written by Krysty Wilson-Cairns and based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Charles Graeber, the film follows Chastain’s Amy, a nurse who is shocked to learn that her colleague, Charlie (Redmayne) has been found responsible for the murder of dozens of patients over the course of nearly two decades without being charged. Nnamdi AsomughaKim Dickens, and Noah Emmerich also star.

Raymond and Ray
Ethan Hawke and Ewan McGregor play half-brothers who reunite at their father’s funeral and strive to reinvent themselves in the wake of his death in “Raymond and Ray.” Rodrigo García (“Four Good Days”) writes and directs this emotional drama/comedy which premiered at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival. Our critic praised Hawke’s performance, writing that the film“…features yet another stellar performance from Hawke, who over the past decade has proven himself to be one of the great leading man character actors of his generation.”
Release Date: October 21 in theaters and streaming via Apple TV+.

Dwayne Johnson joins the world of comic book adaptations with “Black Adam,” directed by Jaume Collet-Serra (“Jungle Cruise”).
