Order pizza and watch Pizza Movie or Five Nights at Freddy’s

This is the perfect weekend to order pizza and watch a movie. Stranger Things star Gaten Matarazzo desperately needs a slice to save himself from a bad trip in the stoner comedy Pizza Movie, which has been delivered to Hulu. An evil animatronic from Freddy Fazbear's Pizza seeks to punish parents in Five Nights at Freddy's 2, which comes to life on Peacock.

You can rent Avatar: Fire and Ash, the third film in James Cameron’s epic sci-fi series set on the gorgeous world of Pandora. Nia DaCosta’s 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple provides the perfect second entry in the planned post-apocalyptic trilogy. Head to Netflix to watch the film, where a twisted cult leader who believes he’s the son of Satan turns out to be far more dangerous than the infected.

Here's a rundown of the most notable new releases on streaming and VOD, including the biggest, best, and most popular new movies you can watch at home right now.

New on Netflix

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple

Genre: Post-apocalyptic horror
Run time: 1h 49m
Director: Nia DaCosta
Cast: Ralph Fiennes, Jack O'Connell, Alfie Williams

Spike (Alfie Williams) is forced to join a sadistic cult led by Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal (Jack O'Connell), who kills and tortures other survivors of the rage virus. But when Jimmy’s leadership is called into question, it puts him on a collision course with the enigmatic Dr. Ian Kelson (Ralph Fiennes), leading to one of the wildest scenes in modern cinema.

From our review:

O’Connell plays his part to perfection, earnestly selling the conceit that his character believes Satan sent both the rage virus and Jimmy himself to rid the world of human immorality. In a franchise defined by violent, sprinting zombies, O’Connell manages to be the scariest figure onscreen, though his followers often feel like interchangeable background actors just waiting to get killed off.

New on HBO Max

Alien: Romulus

Genre: Science fiction horror
Run time: 1h 59m
Director: Fede Álvarez
Cast: Cailee Spaeny, David Jonsson, Archie Renaux

The Alien franchise gets back to basics with Alien: Romulus, which follows an orphan looking to escape from a bleak mining colony and her debt to the nefarious Weyland-Yutani corporation. She joins some friends breaking into a derelict space station, but the group is hunted by xenomorphs.

From our review:

Like the Romulus and Remus stations, which serve as the film’s setting, Alien: Romulus is made up of roughly two parts: a haunted-house story in outer space à la Alien, and a crowd-pleasing horror-action spectacle like Aliens. The former element is stronger than the latter in this case, and the imbalance is one of the reasons Alien: Romulus feels like a by-the-numbers retread of the franchise defining it, rather than the resuscitative breath it so desperately needs.

New on Hulu

Pizza Movie

Genre: Stoner comedy
Run time: 1h 32m
Directors: Brian McElhaney and Nick Kocher
Cast: Gaten Matarazzo, Sean Giambrone, Lulu Wilson

College roommates Jack (Gaten Matarazzo) and Montgomery (Sean Giambrone) take a mysterious new drug called M.I.N.T.S. and discover the high is way more intense than they were expecting. The only way to end the wild hallucinations they’re experiencing is to eat a pizza delivered by drone in their lobby, but getting there proves to be very challenging.

New on Peacock

Five Nights at Freddy’s 2

Genre: Supernatural horror
Run time: 1h 44m
Director: Emma Tammi
Cast: Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio

The video game adaptation focused on a pizza chain with animatronics possessed by a serial killer’s victims introduces a new nightmare in the Marionette, who wants to leave the restaurant behind. The puppet is helped by Abby (Piper Rubio), a traumatized young girl who thinks the murderous robots are her friends.

From our review:

Between the confusing plot elements, the middling horror, and the dodgy acting, Five Nights at Freddy's 2 is a step backward from the first movie. It’s a disappointment: While there are moments in the movie that fans may enjoy, and plenty of robots causing chaos, the story is a mess if you don't already know the ins and outs of the series. The first Five Nights at Freddy's movie felt like it was inviting all of us into its world. This one, on the other hand, could leave everyone but the franchise’s biggest diehards feeling like outsiders, simply trying to keep up.

New on Prime Video

Crime 101

Genre: Crime thriller
Run time: 2h 20m
Director: Bart Layton
Cast: Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Halle Berry

Mike Davis (Chris Hemsworth) is a very skilled and careful jewel thief who’s spent years making his getaways along U.S. Route 101. Hunted by a LAPD detective (Mark Ruffalo), Mike decides to pursue a big job by teaming up with an insurance broker (Halle Berry) to steal a briefcase filled with expensive watches.

New on Shudder

Deathstalker

Genre: Sword and sorcery
Run time: 1h 43m
Director: Steven Kostanski
Cast: Daniel Bernhardt, Patton Oswalt, Christina Orjalo

A remake of James Sbardellati’s 1983 film of the same name follows the former knight Deathstalker (Daniel Bernhardt) as he tries to rid himself of a cursed amulet pursued by an ancient necromancer. With original music from Slash, the film is packed with monsters and bloody swordfighting.

Somnium

Genre: Science fiction horror
Run time: 1h 32m
Director: Racheal Cain
Cast: Chloë Levine, Will Peltz, Peter Vack

After a bad breakup, Gemma (Chloë Levine) moves to Los Angeles to try to make it as an actor, filling her days with auditions while working nights watching over patients at an experimental sleep clinic. While the treatments are meant to help clients realize their dreams, Gemma’s world turns into a surreal nightmare as she learns Somnium’s secrets.

New on Starz

The Housemaid

Genre: Psychological thriller
Run time: 2h 11m
Director: Paul Feig
Cast: Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried, Brandon Sklenar

Desperate for a job to obey the terms of her parole, Millie (Sydney Sweeney) starts working as a live-in maid for the wealthy Winchester family. Her employer, Nina (Amanda Seyfried), turns out to be unhinged, and Millie becomes entangled in tensions between Nina and her controlling husband, Andrew (Brandon Sklenar).

New to rent

Avatar: Fire and Ash

Genre: Epic science fiction
Run time: 3h 17m
Director: James Cameron
Cast: Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Oona Chaplin, Stephen Lang

Terran soldier turned Na’vi Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) has to flee with his family as he’s chased by Terran Colonel Quaritch (Stephen Lang). Quaritch makes an alliance with the leader of a cult-like group of volcano-dwelling Na’vi (Oona Chaplin), leading to a war between Na’vi which is filled with spectacular action sequences.

From our review:

An Avatar movie with lots of moving parts, fueled by overt technical prowess, could sound like “just more Avatar.” But Cameron, Jaffa, and Silver seem determined to make the script really count this time around. Neytiri and Jake each spend a good chunk of the movie debating whether to kill Spider to keep their family and other Na’vi safe, with Saldaña always on the verge of tears, and Worthington honestly giving a performance that would be Oscar-worthy in a year where Leonardo DiCaprio wasn’t also playing a sad dad.

Dolly

Genre: Slasher
Run time: 1h 23m
Director: Rod Blackhurst
Cast: Fabianne Therese, Russ Tiller, Kate Cobb

Macy (Fabianne Therese) and Billy (Russ Tiller) go on what was supposed to be a romantic hike in the woods, only to be creeped out by a collection of dolls hanging from trees. Things get far worse when a woman wearing a porcelain doll mask kidnaps Macy to raise her as her new baby in her isolated home.

Scream 7

Genre: Slasher
Run time: 1h 54m
Director: Kevin Williamson
Cast: Neve Campbell, Isabel May, Jasmin Savoy Brown

When a masked killer starts terrorizing the town of Pine Grove, Indiana, Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) is very prepared. Survivors of Ghostface’s previous killing sprees unite to protect Sidney’s daughter Tatum (Isabel May). The film combines nasty kills and creepy scares, but ditches most of the franchise’s meta humor.

From our review:

The real problem with Scream 7 isn’t the absence of Tara and Sam, even if they did offer more intriguing story avenues than Sidney getting menaced for the sixth time. It’s Williamson’s inability to flip the movie’s weaknesses into evocative strengths. Tatum’s high school, and Pine Grove in general, seem weirdly underpopulated — the sparing use of extras makes it seem as if the town has a bustling population of about 30 people — and a big scene set downtown closely resembles a movie backlot, albeit one where the lighting rigs are broken.

Wuthering Heights

Genre: Romantic period drama
Run time: 2h 16m
Director: Emerald Fennell
Cast: Margot Robbie, Jacob Elordi, Hong Chau, Shazad Latif

The loose adaptation of Emily Brontë’s novel follows the romance between Cathy (Margot Robbie) and her childhood friend Heathcliff (Jacob Elordi). Cathy marries her wealthy neighbor Edgar (Shazad Latif) even though she loves Heathcliff, who disappears and returns years later having mysteriously become wealthy himself.
