The weekend was made for movie watching, and if you're planning to settle down and stream some great movies on Prime Video, I've got three options that definitely should be under consideration.

Variety is the theme of my picks this week, as each will appeal to different tastes. There's a 2026 horror sequel that's perfect for Halloween on Saturday (Oct. 31), or if you're not feeling a scary movie, how about a romantic drama that will really tug on your heartstrings. Whereas if you just need a laugh, I've found a golden-age classic.

These are the three new-to-Prime-Video movies I recommend you watch this weekend. Don't waste your precious streaming time scrolling; get watching these movies as soon as the weekend starts.

Cards on the table, in this horror fan’s opinion, “Scream 7” is the weakest installment in the slasher series to date. The return of Neve Campbell, who skipped “Scream 6” over a pay dispute, was welcome, but the result was a very messy movie. Still, if you want a new horror movie to watch on Halloween, you might find some of its creative kills gory good fun. And Campbell paired with Courteney Cox is always a joy.

After a genuinely excellent opening (which is actually the movie’s high point), events leap to Pine Grove, Indiana, where Ghostface survivor Sidney (Campbell) has built a new life with a husband (Joel McHale) and daughter, Tatum (Isabel May). Sidney is done with her past, but the past isn’t finished with her.
