Here's everything coming to Amazon Prime Video in October
The streamer is gearing up for spooky season with I Know What You Did Last Summer and "Welcome to the Blumhouse" features
For the upcoming Halloween season, Amazon Prime Video has some horrifying (both in a scary way and in a “this looks bad” way) offerings. On October 15, James Wan’s remake of the ‘90s teen thriller I Know What You Did Last Summer arrives as a new batch of teenagers have a murderous secret to hide. The now annual “Welcome to the Blumhouse” film series kicks off with a classic vampire flick from the horror specialists. In Black As Night, a resourceful and vengeful teenage girl spends her summer battling vampires terrorizing New Orleans. It’s similar to the reboot of another Sarah Michelle Gellar-led ‘90s teen classic—Buffy The Vampire Slayer—that never came to be.
If you’re looking to watch something which features an older crowd there’s Bingo Hell, which follows a senior citizen as she fights to protect her beloved neighborhood from an evil force that’s taken over the glitz and glamoured bingo hall. You gotta love bingo balls spelling out “You lose” on the floor as a horrified grandma looks on. Bingo Hell is just one of the geriatric-centric horror flicks coming to Amazon Prime Video in October. Straight from the retirement home, The Manor (from you guessed it—Blumhouse!) follows Judith Albright, who after a stroke reluctantly moves into a historic nursing home where she becomes convinced a supernatural force is killing the residents.
Finally, the last of Blumhouse’s spooky offerings is Madres, starring Elpidia Carrillo and Tenoch Huerta, who play a Mexican-American couple expecting their first child. The two decide to move to a migrant farming community in ‘70s California, where strange symptoms and terrifying visions threaten their budding family.
