The 9 best things to watch this weekend, from the ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ prequel to every ‘Alien’ movie
August 16, 20240
The “Mad Max: Fury Road” prequel stars Chris Hemsworth as the villain Dementus and Anya Taylor-Joy as the younger version of Charlize Theron’s character.
If you skipped out on seeing it in theaters (which, let’s be honest, you probably did, based on its box-office performance), now’s your chance.
This has been one of my top horror movies of the year so far. Sydney Sweeney stars as a young nun at a creepy Italian convent in a far departure from “Anyone But You.”
Vince Vaughn plays Andrew Yancy, a former Miami detective turned restaurant health inspector. The show was developed by “Ted Lasso” co-creator Bill Lawrence, and adapted from the book of the same name by Carl Hiaasen.
Conveniently, all six of them — the original “Alien,” “Aliens,” “Alien 3,” “Alien Resurrection,” “Prometheus,” and “Alien: Covenant” — are on the same streamer.
