Netflix: KPop Demon Hunters

Ever wondered what would happen if a K-pop girl group started hunting demons? KPop Demon Hunters is a family-friendly animated musical where a trio of pop stars balances their stage life with demon-busting. But when the demons form their own boy band, things get wild! Expect catchy original songs and global talent.

Max: A Minecraft Movie

The world’s favorite blocky game gets a full-length adventure with A Minecraft Movie. Jason Momoa leads as a game store owner who, with two siblings, gets sucked into the Overworld. There’s a baby-zombie chicken jockey, Jack Black cuddles, and a ton of Minecraft references for fans. It’s not quite The Lego Movie, but it’s packed with silly fun.

At first, the CG interpretations of Minecraft settings, animals, monsters, and villagers are overwhelming: A carnival of nightmare visuals marches across the screen. The villagers are alarmingly fleshy, their eyes too moist for comfort. A sheep’s chewing motions are exaggerated and uncanny. Eventually, though, the alarming effect fades. Some designs are perfectly pleasant to look at, like the piglins, creepers, and iron golems. Once the story is in motion and the characters are moving through elaborate in-game environments, there’s so much going on, and the Minecraft architecture is so familiar, I stopped being concerned and started having fun.

Hulu: Out Come the Wolves, The Quiet Ones, Sally, Skincare

Out Come the Wolves

Three friends, one awkward cabin trip, and a pack of bloodthirsty wolves. Out Come the Wolves blends horror and thriller as a group’s getaway turns into a desperate fight for survival.

The Quiet Ones

Based on Denmark’s biggest heist, The Quiet Ones follows a boxer and a multinational crew trying to steal $10 million. Secrets, betrayals, and action await.

Sally

Get to know the story of America’s first woman in space in Sally, a National Geographic documentary exploring Sally Ride’s life and her long-hidden relationship with Tam O’Shaughnessy.

Skincare

Elizabeth Banks stars as a famous esthetician whose life spirals when a rival studio opens and her emails get hacked. Skincare is a thriller about reputation, rivalry, and survival.

Paramount Plus: Love Me

In the year 2500, humanity is gone, but romance isn’t! Love Me pairs Kristen Stewart (as a weather buoy) and Steven Yeun (as a satellite) in a post-apocalyptic world. Their odd, charming relationship is part stop-motion, part live-action, and all heart.

Love Me’s mockery of the artificiality of influencer lifestyle blogging feels pretty dated — this is the kind of thing Black Mirror has been doing for going on a decade now, and it isn’t any fresher here. And the ultimate message more or less amounts to “Be yourself,” which feels like a fairly rote conclusion for such an enjoyably odd, specific movie.

Shout TV & Shout Movies: Monty Python and the Holy Grail

The comedy classic Monty Python and the Holy Grail turns 50! Celebrate with a 24-hour stream, behind-the-scenes memories, and all the coconuts, killer rabbits, and shrubbery you can handle.

Shudder: Ash

If you love sci-fi horror, Ash is your pick. Eiza González wakes up on a strange planet, surrounded by bodies, and must figure out if she can trust her mysterious rescuer (Aaron Paul). Expect dream sequences inspired by games like Dead Space, Silent Hill, and Death Stranding.

New to Rent: Final Destination: Bloodlines, Eye for an Eye, Friendship, Inside

Eye for an Eye

A teen moves to Florida after her parents’ death and encounters the vengeful Sandman spirit, who haunts bullies in their dreams. Eye for an Eye is a fresh horror flick with a supernatural twist.

Final Destination: Bloodlines

After 15 years, the Final Destination series is back! Bloodlines follows a family haunted by death after a life-saving premonition in 1969. Now, their descendants face a new wave of deadly, elaborate traps. It’s already the franchise’s biggest box office hit.

Friendship

Paul Rudd and Tim Robinson star in Friendship, a dark comedy about adult friendships gone wrong. What starts as mushroom hunting and tunnel exploring turns into chaos as their bond unravels.

Inside

Willem Dafoe is an art thief trapped in a luxury penthouse, slowly losing his grip on reality. Inside is a psychological thriller that’s as much about survival as it is about self-reflection.

With so many new movies and genres to choose from, your weekend watchlist just got a serious upgrade! Which one will you stream first?
