This week’s new movies on VOD include Marvel’s Kraven the Hunter starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, plus the critically-acclaimed Queer, starring Daniel Craig and Drew Starkey, plus the action thriller Alarum featuring Sylvester Stallone.
In Alarum, Scott Eastwood and Willa Fitzgerald play a pair of assassins who go off the grid so they can get married. But while they’re hiding out enjoying romantic bliss, they stumble across a plane crash and after checking out the plane, they retrieve a hard drive with some sensitive material in it – material that brash CIA Agent Chester (Stallone) is willing to kill them for.
These are just a few of the films that are available to watch on Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, YouTube, and through your cable service this week. Check out what movies are available to buy or rent on demand now.
Compared to many other Marvel superhero films, Kraven The Hunter had a lackluster box office when it premiered in theaters last year, but maybe that means its arrival to digital will give it a popularity boost? The film stars Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Sergei Kravinoff, better known as Kraven, a vigilante “predator” who hunts down criminals. A Kraven film has long been gestating in Hollywood, and this one, which co-stars Ariana DeBose, Fred Hechinger, and Russell Crowe, has been polarizing among critics. Check out out now that it’s on demand and see for yourself.
Directed by Luca Guadagnino, Queer is based on the semi-autobiographical 1985 novella of the same name by William S. Burroughs. Daniel Craig was nominated for a Golden Globe for playing William Lee, an American writer living in 1950s Mexico City who spends his days chasing men and doing opioids. Eventually, Lee pursues a young American named Eugene Allerton (Drew Starkey), and the two fall into complicated romantic entanglement.
