T-minus 34 days until Dune: Part Three is coming out in theaters, but I’m very calm about it. If you are also very relaxed about this, the best way to comfort yourself is to check out the reissues of First part And Two in Imax this weekend. Besides a trip back to Arrakis, there’s another Maika Monroe horror, Anne Hathaway’s dinosaur thriller streaming, and much more.
A scream queen of unusual, darker horror, Maika Monroe plays a young governess in the mid-1800s who works for a wealthy family at Ensor House. Upon arrival, Monroe’s Winifred transforms into a darker version of herself in this bloody thriller.
A high school dance team throwing a town into mass hysteria is the basis of this new series from showrunner Quinn Shephard. After a night out leaves one of the girls (Sofia Wylie) in a coma, Anya (Kristina Bogic), the team’s head captain, must deal with the trauma of that night, as well as her guilt and secrecy over her increasingly intimate relationship with her best friend Elise (Sara Boustany). Romance, religious guilt, teen drama: this series has something to keep you hooked.
➽ Streaming on Prime Video; read the full review of season three.
Not every crime thriller about a family’s buried secrets that intrude into the present with Meghann Fahy is a gem; this one is. Fahy plays the daughter of a locally reviled defense lawyer (Brendan Gleeson) who must call on her semi-estranged sister (Rose Byrne) after their father finds himself embroiled in yet another tragedy in the city. —Kathryn VanArendonk
The deliciously nasty and satiny British political drama returns with David Tennant’s nouveau riche media executive Lord Tony Baddingham now swearing revenge on his many enemies. Excessive hairspray and shoulder pads only make the whole thing more glamorous and ridiculous. —KVA
Heart of the country is either behind Time’s Up or Woke 3.0. Anyway, this thriller Strong Country Filmmaker Shana Feste’s tearing apart Nashville’s treatment of women is quite captivating. Jessica Chastain plays Misty Jones, a former brutal icon who returns to town when her rising star niece Charlie (current country singer Carter Faith) disappears. Chastain’s no-bullshit intensity is the closest she’s come in a while. One of the most violent years performance, and a handsomely mustachioed Garrett Hedlund is steady as the label owner who guides her through an industry she no longer recognizes. —Roxana Hadadi
Avengers: Endgame had its time in theaters to excite fans Judgment Day; now it’s time for Dune And Dune: part two to return to Imax screens before the release of the Capper trilogy. Who doesn’t want to spend their weekend seeing these sandworms on the biggest screens possible?
David Robert Mitchell’s science fiction thriller is one of the most WTF-inducing films of the year. In The end of Oak StreetAnne Hathaway (in her 18th greatest role, by our estimates) and Ewan McGregor play the parents of a neighborhood family unknowingly sucked into a wormhole that places them in the age of the dinosaurs. They need to understand how they got there, how to get out, and how to survive in the process.
➽ Plus, Chris Rock drama Misty green is now on Netflix.
