The weekend of October 16-18 brought a pile of new streaming options, so here's what landed and where.
VisionQuest debuts on Disney+
VisionQuest, the latest Marvel TV show, dropped its first two episodes on Disney+ Friday. Terry Matalas created it, and it features Ruaridh Mollica playing Tommy Shepherd—also known as Speed—for the first time. If you're still invested in the MCU's ever-expanding roster, this one's aimed at you. If you're burned out on superhero TV, nothing here suggests it'll change your mind.
Crystal Lake brings Friday the 13th back
Peacock premiered Crystal Lake, a prequel series to the Friday the 13th movies. A24 produced it, which is interesting—they don't usually touch legacy horror franchises. Linda Cardellini plays Pamela Voorhees, and Callum Vinson plays young Jason. If you grew up renting those movies on VHS and you're curious how A24 handles the origin story, this is the one to queue up this weekend.
Chris Evans and Anya Taylor-Joy team up on Netflix
Netflix added Sacrifice, an action comedy starring Chris Evans and Anya Taylor-Joy. No other details in the fact sheet, but that pairing alone will pull in viewers. If you want something lighter after a long week, it's there.
Prime Video drops a romance from an Oscar-winning DP
Prime Video released Love of Your Life, directed by Rachel Morrison—the cinematographer who shot Black Panther and became the first woman nominated for the Oscar in that category. Margaret Qualley and Gabriel Basso star. If you're in the mood for something that isn't explosions or blood, this is your pick.
Tulsa King returns for Season 4
Paramount+ brought back Tulsa King for its fourth season on Friday. Sylvester Stallone plays Dwight Manfredi in this Taylor Sheridan show, which has been a consistent draw since it started. If you've been following it, you already know what you're getting. If you haven't, four seasons in is a weird place to start.
Bottom line: Crystal Lake is the most interesting gamble of the bunch. VisionQuest will please Marvel completists. The rest depends on your mood and how much you want to scroll.
