It\u2019s set to be a packed week of top new movies across the best streaming services<\/a>. Pretty much all the major platforms are dropping new flicks for subscribers to watch, including Netflix, Prime Video, Paramount+, Hulu and Peacock. Plus, there are newcomers on PVOD as well.<\/p>\n

Sam Raimi\u2019s \u201cSend Help\u201d on premium streaming is definitely one to keep an eye on if you like twisted survival thrillers cut with chilling horror. Meanwhile, Netflix has a creative comedy reboot that my colleague called “the funniest movie of 2025.” Oh, and Prime Video has an action-thriller about a group of lethal ballerinas, and Hulu has a new Vince Vaughn movie that incorporates time travel, which has quickly rocketed up my watchlist this week.<\/p>\n

These are the most noteworthy new movies across streaming services in the coming days. I\u2019ve brought them together in one place to save you time scrolling through platform libraries.

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

Director Sam Raimi delivers a wickedly enjoyable horror-thriller with all the hallmarks of the filmmaker’s trademark style in \u201cSend Help.\u201d However, the movie\u2019s biggest strength comes in the form of Rachel McAdams. The Canadian actress delivers an impressive leading performance that leaps between sympathetic and unhinged. \u201cSend Help\u201d is a wild ride, and the use of practical effects also stands out, adding a visceral nature to the violence.<\/p>\n

Linda Liddle (McAdams) is a hard worker, but her inability to play the corporate schmoozing game sees her overlooked in the workplace. Promised a promotion, which is then taken away by her new boss, the arrogant Bradley Preston (Dylan O\u2019Brien), when the two ended up stranded on a tropical island after a plane crash, their dynamic is flipped. Linda has the survival skills, which puts Bradley at her mercy. With no recuse in sight, tensions rise.<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

Glenn Powell\u2019s new darkly comedic thriller feels a little reminiscent of last year\u2019s \u201cNo Other Choice,\u201d as it sees its protagonist embark on a murderous campaign to secure a large inheritance. There are some narrative stumbles and some poorly written supporting characters (chiefly Margaret Qualley\u2019s Julia Steinway), but Powell is the movie\u2019s shining light, and he brings plenty of charisma and a rather warped likability to \u201cHow to Make a Killing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips.<\/p>\n

Becket Redfellow (Powell) is an illegitimate son, born to a single mother disowned by her snobbish, wealthy father (Ed Harris). When his mother passes away, Becket is determined to reclaim his vast inheritance, but to do so, he has to eliminate the line of succession. This leads to a murderous spree, as an undercover Becket, befriends and then murders his relatives to ensure that his grandfather’s obscene fortune is ultimately left to him.<\/p>\n

\u2018Anaconda\u2019 (Netflix)<\/p>\n

ANACONDA \u2013 Official Trailer (HD) – YouTube
\n\"ANACONDA<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

I might not quite agree with my colleague Malcolm McMillan when he labeled \u201cAnaconda\u201d<\/a> the funniest movie of 2025, but I do have to give some pretty large kudos to the creatives involved for attempting something a little different with this reboot of 1997\u2019s cult favorite \u201cAnaconda.\u201d Instead of lazily telling the same story, 2025\u2019s \u201cAnaconda\u201d is an extremely creative comedy-focused reboot that puts a metaspin on the over-the-top action-horror.<\/p>\n

What to read next<\/p>\n

Paul Rudd and Jack Black play Griff and Doug, childhood best friends who grew up obsessed with the original \u201cAnaconda.\u201d As they approach their own midlife crisis, they decide to remake their favorite movie. Traveling deep into the Amazon<\/a> Rainforest to make their tribute film, things get a little too real when a gigantic snake starts to stalk their production. \u201cAnaconda\u201d is intentionally silly, but it does have a sweet message about friendship.<\/p>\n

Watch on Netflix<\/a> from March 25<\/p>\n

\u2018Pretty Lethal\u2019 (Prime Video)<\/p>\n

Pretty Lethal – Official Trailer | Prime Video – YouTube
\n\"Pretty<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019m giving Prime Video\u2019s new \u201cPretty Lethal\u201d several points for the novelty of its premise. Plus, while early reviews aren\u2019t spectacular, the action-thriller is currently rated 64% on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>. When graded on a Prime Video original movie curve, that\u2019s a step up from the streamer\u2019s usual scores, which are often less than stellar. Here\u2019s hoping \u201cPretty Lethal\u201d can replicate the no-frills entertainment of last month\u2019s pirate-themed flick \u201cThe Bluff.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPretty Lethal\u201d centers on a dysfunctional ballet troupe that is at each other\u2019s throats as they travel to a prestigious competition. The group must put their disagreements aside when their bus breaks down, and they take shelter at a shady roadside motel run by a former prodigy (Uma Thurman). At this rundown location, they are targeted by a group of armed men and must band together to survive. It turns out you can kick butt in ballet shoes!<\/p>\n

\u2018Primate\u2019 (Paramount+)<\/p>\n

PRIMATE | Official Trailer (2026 Movie) – YouTube
\n\"PRIMATE<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cPrimate\u201d might not claim to be based on a true story, but anybody aware of the tragic tale of Travis the chimpanzee, who was kept as a domestic pet, only to turn savage one day and maul the friend of his owner, will feel a real sense of familiarity with this chilling horror. \u201cPrimate\u2019s\u201d central hook, of a once loveable chimp gone bad, is effectively spooky, and the movie wisely runs a lean 90 minutes long, ensuring it doesn\u2019t overstay its welcome.<\/p>\n

Lucy (Johnny Sequoyah) is returning home to Hawaii after several years away. With a group of friends in tow, Lucy is reunited with her younger sister Erin (Gia Hunter) and deaf father Adam (Oscar-winning Troy Kotsur). Oh, the family also owns a pet chimpanzee, Ben. However, this family reunion is soon spoiled when Ben is infected with rabies and turns feral. Now it\u2019s a battle for survival against a pet that once was considered part of the family.<\/p>\n

\u2018Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice\u2019 (Hulu)<\/p>\n

Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice | Official Trailer | Hulu – YouTube
\n\"Mike<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

Before compiling this list, Hulu\u2019s \u201cMike & Nick & Nick & Alice\u201d wasn\u2019t on my radar, but after doing some research, I\u2019m definitely adding this sci-fi action-comedy to my watchlist. For starters, it\u2019s got solid buzz, with an 80% score on Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>, and it incorporates one of my favorite storytelling devices: time travel. It\u2019s also got a pretty great cast, including Vince Vaughn, James Marsden, Eiza Gonz\u00e1lez and Keith David. Consider me interested!<\/p>\n

Described as a \u201chilarious, stylized, R-rated action-comedy,\u201d the movie sees two friends (Vaughn and Marsden) attempt to navigate the ruthless world of organized crime, alongside the girl that they both love (Gonz\u00e1lez). Set over the \u201cmost dangerous night of their lives,\u201d it\u2019s a battle to survive, and if that wasn\u2019t exciting enough, time-travel is also thrown into the mix.<\/p>\n

Watch on Hulu<\/a> from March 27<\/p>\n

\u2018Bambi: The Reckoning\u2019 (Peacock)<\/p>\n

Bambi: The Reckoning | Official Trailer – YouTube
\n\"Bambi:<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cBambi: The Reckoning\u201d is the fourth installment in the Twisted Childhood Universe, a collection of horror movies that put a nightmarish spin on beloved children\u2019s stories. As you can guess, this newest entry turns the 1923 novel \u201cBambi, a Life in the Woods\u201d into a bloody chiller about a deer that turns murderous after his mother is killed. The real shock here is that, unlike the previous TCU movies, \u201cBambi\u201d has actually been reviewed pretty well.<\/p>\n

The supernatural horror sees a mother and son get into a car wreck, caused by a mutated deer named Bambi on a revenge-fueled rampage. What follows is a very twisted story as the grief-stricken deer hunts down a cast of human survivors. Made on a relatively low budget, \u201cBambi: The Reckoning\u2019s\u201d biggest draw is clearly its very warped spin on the beloved children’s book.<\/p>\n

Watch on Peacock<\/a> from March 27<\/p>\n
