Your Ultimate Weekly Streaming Guide
As the crisp autumn air settles in, the lineup of new movies across the best streaming services has officially arrived. Whether you are looking for blockbuster action, intense thrillers, or spooky Halloween picks to get you in the seasonal mood, there is plenty to watch this week across Netflix, Apple TV, Hulu, Peacock, and premium Video-On-Demand (PVOD) platforms.
Headlining the week is the massive box-office hit "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," alongside Ben Affleck's gritty crime thriller "Animals" on Netflix, a nostalgic toy-inspired action-comedy on Apple TV, and some genuinely chilling horror selections just in time for October.
1. 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' (PVOD)
Tom Holland’s latest solo outing as the iconic web-slinger scaled new heights over the summer, cementing its status as a massive box-office success. Starting October 6, "Brand New Day" becomes available on digital platforms. Set in the wake of the world forgetting Peter Parker’s identity, Peter is dedicated full-time to protecting New York City while grappling with his evolving powers and a mysterious new villain wielding telekinetic abilities.
2. 'Insidious: Out of the Further' (PVOD)
For those looking to kickstart their Halloween movie marathons early, the sixth installment of the supernatural horror franchise arrives on digital platforms on October 6. Following newcomer Gemma—a young mother who can travel into the ghostly dimensions of the Further—this sequel offers plenty of jump scares and spine-chilling encounters.
3. 'Fall 2: Deadpoint' (PVOD)
If you loved the intense vertigo of the original survival thriller, "Fall 2: Deadpoint" delivers another palm-sweating experience. Following a new protagonist, Jax, stranded 3,000 feet in the air on Mount Kawn in Thailand after a rock slide, this sequel tests the limits of human endurance.
4. 'Animals' (Netflix)
Ben Affleck steps in front of and behind the camera for Netflix’s gritty crime thriller "Animals," premiering October 9. Playing a Los Angeles mayoral candidate whose son is kidnapped, Affleck's character dives deep into the city's criminal underbelly to raise ransom money, unleashing a darker side of himself.
5. 'Disclosure Day' (Peacock)
Steven Spielberg returns to the sci-fi sandbox with "Disclosure Day," streaming on Peacock starting October 9. Starring Emily Blunt as a TV weather reporter who begins speaking in an alien language on live television, the film follows a high-stakes government conspiracy chase alongside Colin Firth and Josh O'Connor.
6. 'Matchbox: The Movie' (Apple TV)
Based on Mattel’s miniature die-cast vehicle line, this action-comedy blockbuster stars John Cena as a former soldier caught up in an international conspiracy to steal nuclear warheads. Fast-paced, explosive, and packed with high-octane stunts, it hits Apple TV on October 9.
7. 'Hokum' (Hulu)
Rounding out the week on Hulu starting October 10 is Damian McCarthy's terrifying horror film "Hokum." Starring Adam Scott as a cynical novelist experiencing writer's block who visits a haunted hotel in rural Ireland, this atmospheric chiller is guaranteed to give you nightmares this Halloween season.
