Top New Horror Movies to Stream This Month (August 2025)
With summer winding down, August 2025 brings several fresh horror films to streaming platforms. Here’s a look at three of the most talked-about titles and why they deserve a place on your watch list.
Final Destination: Bloodlines (Max) – The sixth entry in the long-running franchise feels reinvigorated. Instead of another teen narrowly avoiding a catastrophe, this installment focuses on a single family haunted by a disaster dating back to the late 1960s. According to TheWrap, the film stands out for its emotionally resonant characters and smartly staged suspense sequences, making it “arguably the best entry in the franchise” and one of the surprise hits of the year【906691414150404†L125-L146】.
The Monkey (Hulu) – Director Osgood Perkins adapts a Stephen King short story about a wind-up monkey that seems to bring death to whoever owns it. TheWrap notes that Theo James plays twins who suspect the toy caused their mother’s death, and the movie combines dark comedy with 1980s-style horror to deliver a chaotic climax【906691414150404†L284-L300】. Perkins’ loose, freewheeling style and the film’s blend of scares and humor make it one of the most unique horror releases this year.
Hell of a Summer (Hulu) – For fans of slasher movies, Finn Wolfhard and Billy Bryk’s feature debut offers camp-counselor terror with a twist. As TheWrap describes, the film features an ensemble cast of counselors trying to evade a masked killer at summer camp, resulting in a fresh take on the classic summer-camp slasher formula【906691414150404†L476-L491】. Early festival reviews praised the movie’s energy and character work, and its late-summer streaming release makes it perfect for a weekend scare.
