Netflix, Max, Hulu & Amazon to Add 65 New Titles This Weekend – Here’s the 3 Most Interesting

Netflix, Hulu, Max and Amazon’s Prime Video this weekend (October 10-13, 2024) plan to add 65 new TV shows and movies to their streaming lineups. Here are the three most interesting, in my humble opinion:

Caddo Lake – Max Original Film

Dylan O’Brien and Eliza Scanlen star as two Texas folks who believe their loved ones were killed by sinister forces in the Caddo Lake. Directed and written by newbies Logan George and Celine Held (and produced by the master of twist, M. Night Shyamalan), the movie was supposedly inspired by urban legends about the real Caddo Lake in East Texas. And if that doesn’t sufficiently freak you out during Halloween month, allow me to reiterate that M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense, Trap) is involved here. Debuts on Max on Thursday, October 10.

Lonely Planet – Netflix Original 

Laura Dern stars as a romance novelist who falls in love in a way so implausible that her readers would never buy it, or so says the Netflix press release. Of course, the guy she falls for is Liam Hemsworth so it’s probably not that implausible. Debuts on Netflix on Friday, October 11.

A Quiet Place, Part II (2020) – Netflix

The sequel to the hugely successful 2018 alien invasion film serves up as many jump scares as the original. Emily Blunt stars as the Mom whose family discovers that a high pitch sound can kill the monsters but only if they don’t kill them first. Directed by John Krasinski, who also starred in the first movie, A Quiet Place is a tense, action-packed film that will hold your attention from start to finish. Debuts on Netflix on Saturday, October 12.

Also check out the final episode of Peacock’s Fight Night, the streamer’s original series about a real-life celebrated robbery of ‘Black Mafia’ chiefs after the 1970 Ali-Quarry fight in Atlanta. The finale debuts Thursday, October 10.
