'Wolfs' (Sept. 27)
Ever wonder if George Clooney and Brad Pitt were up for the same movie part? Well, their characters are hired for the same gig – in this case, rival lone-wolf fixers having to cover up a high-profile crime – in an action comedy written and directed by recent "Spider-Man" filmmaker Jon Watts.
Where to watch: Apple TV+.
'Hold Your Breath' (Oct. 3)

'House of Spoils' (Oct. 3)
Do you wish the "The Bear" was scarier? In this foodie-friendly horror flick, Ariana DeBose plays a star chef who opens a high-end restaurant on a remote estate, though she has to grapple with bigger problems than poor plating – like crippling self-doubt, kitchen mayhem and maybe even a haunting.

'Salem’s Lot' (Oct. 3)
In the latest adaptation of the 1975 Stephen King book, Lewis Pullman plays an author needing creative inspiration who returns to the Maine home he left behind after a childhood tragedy.

'It’s What’s Inside' (Oct. 4)
A group of college friends gets together for a reunion, one of them brings a suitcase containing a strange contraption, and by morning they’ll never see each other the same way ever again.

Where to watch: Netflix.
'Lonely Planet' (Oct. 11)
In the Netflix romance, Laura Dern plays an introverted, newly single novelist struggling to finish her latest book who travels to a prestigious Moroccan retreat.

'Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara' (Oct. 18)
Tegan and Sara were indie pop darlings in the 2000s who cultivated a safe space for the queer community online.
