It doesn't matter if you're signed up for Netflix, Shudder, Amazon Prime Video, or Hulu, you're a part of the movement that's depends more on streaming services than their local cable or satellite providers for their entertainment needs. Welcome to the future, where movies and TV shows are at your fingertips. This week, Shudder, Amazon, and Hulu are offering up some great content, and here's what is headed to them.
The biggest release of the week is none other than Season 2 of Castle Rock over on Hulu. The latest season of the show follows a nurse named Annie Wilkes--the character from Stephen King's book Misery--as she lands in Castle Rock with her daughter. This season does stand on its own, so you don't need to watch Season 1 to understand what's going on. At NYCC, we saw the Season 2 premiere of Castle Rock, and it was very good. Castle Rock arrives on Wednesday.
If you're into American football, you may enjoy the NFL on Thursday night. Washington is taking on Minnesota in this NFC battle. This game will be much more fun for Vikings fans as Washington's record is currently 1-6 and has put up the least amount of total points this season of any NFC team. It should be a fun day to watch Vikings' WR Stefon Diggs run amok on Washington's defense.
Over on Shudder, Joe Bob Briggs is back with his new special Joe Bob’s Halloween Hootenanny. The foremost drive-in movie critic will be presenting three movies for this marathon. Will they be Halloween movies or something completely off-the-wall that have nothing to do with horror? We'll all have to tune in to the live-streamed special, which kicks off at 9 PM ET / 6 PM PT on Friday.
Below, you'll find everything coming to Amazon, Hulu, and Shudder this week, and for more streaming news, see what is landing on Netflix this week.
