This October, in addition, the potential blockbusters return with the long-awaited, and this time it is not a euphemism, Black Adam, possibly the biggest bet of Warners Bros and DC Studios for this year. And no, there is nothing from Marvel this month in theaters, so the superhero testosterone break breaks it with something less seen than usual, at least in principle.
Yet there is life beyond Black Adam and of a very different kind, although unlike other years, the horror proposals are not too many and they are a little ahead of Halloween, but without removing the mask (sic). We therefore begin with a review that will coincide in many cases in the international arena, but which, it should be remembered, refers only to what is released in cinemas in Spain.

For the second week of October, the pre-Halloween premieres begin to be seen and, of course, Halloween: The End It is the most representative of all of them. Indeed, this is expected to be the last installment of the franchise led by Jamie Lee Curtis (Risky lies, daggers in the back) not in all its parts, but in the first and this, the supposed last. And little more can be added: the slasher always in charge of the maniac Michael Myers.
More on the path of suspense than terror, but with murderers in between, it is little pig, another Spanish movie that actually has its time, but that will go through cinemas as it should now.

Change of total third for with No news at the front, a German production that transports the viewer to the First World War no less, but from a slightly less seen perspective: that of a young German soldier on the Western Front.
