Open Road Films has moved the Jake Gyllenhaal movie “Nightcrawler” from Oct. 17 to Oct. 31, meaning the film will be released nationwide on Halloween.

The Oct. 17 date became especially crowded when Sony moved Brad Pitt‘s “Fury” up several weeks. “Nightcrawler” would’ve also opened against Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s “Birdman,” Universal’s “Dracula Untold,” Fox’s animated movie “Book of Life,” Relativity’s romantic drama “The Best of Me,” the Kristen Stewart drama “Camp X-Ray” and the indie comedy “Listen Up Philip.”

With Open Road’s smart decision to delay the movie two weeks, “Nightcrawler” is now the highest-profile release on Halloween, when it will go head-to-head with the Daniel Radcliffe thriller “Horns,” the Nicole Kidman thriller “Before I Go to Sleep” and the horror movies “ABCs of Death 2” and “Why Don’t You Play in Hell.”
