Shudder Boasts its Biggest Horror Movie and TV Line-Up Ever in April

New DVD release, , , , ,
Shudder is pulling out all the shivery stops to commemorate the startling fact that we are exactly halfway to the most beloved date on any horror fan’s calendar, Halloween. Yes, that’s right, this month (April) is the six-month mark and the world’s scariest streaming outlet is celebrating with “Halfway to Halloween,” a massive slate of programming that begins on April 1 and continues throughout the rest of the month. This is no April Fool’s joke (although we have some if you want). Shudder is rolling out a brand new batch of exclusive and/or original programming, including the second season of…

Spring has sprung. The weather is warming, and the days are lasting longer. For cinephiles it’s bittersweet since April usually marks a period when studios and independent distributors begin showing a steady stream of their new wares for the rest of the year.

New on Netflix: April 2021 Releases

New DVD release, ,
Netflix is the king of the streaming world until proven otherwise. But in recent months the streamer’s lists of new releases have looked relatively sparse as competing media conglomerates remove their titles from Netflix’s library. With its list of new releases for April 2021, however, Netflix appears to have its original production machine operating at high capacity once again. There are plenty of intriguing Netflix original series and films this month. The one that appears to have the highest blockbuster potential though is the series Shadow and Bone on April 23. Shadow and Bone is adapted from Leigh Bardugo’s Grisha-verse…

HBO Max New Releases: April 2021

New DVD release,
Fresh off the long-awaited arrival of Zack Snyder’s Justice League (a.k.a. the fabled Snyder Cut), HBO Max has no need to appease fandom culture in April 2021. But the streaming service is gonna do it anyway! The most notable new release for HBO Max this month is the HBO series The Nevers. This show, created by Joss Whedon, is set in a 19th century steampunk London and finds a sizable portion of the population (predominantly women) having been “Touched” by mysterious paranormal powers. There’s an interesting bit of irony at play here, as HBO Max is following up the Snyder…

New on Amazon Prime Video UK April 2021: Palm Springs, Sound of Metal & More!

New DVD release, , , , , ,
The past year in lockdown may make the idea of a comedy about being stuck in an endlessly repeating loop feel a little too close to home, but Palm Springs starring Andy Samburg and Cristin Milioti, which arrives on Friday the 9th of April, is fresh and funny and well worth your time. For something more serious and very well regarded, there’s Sound of Metal on Monday the 12th, starring Riz Ahmed as a heavy metal drummer losing his hearing. And if lockdown’s simply been too much fun and you need bringing back down to earth with a bleak tale…

Best Movies Coming to Netflix in April 2021

New DVD release, , ,
When 2021 began, many movie lovers were hopeful April would be the month of the rebound. James Bond was scheduled to (finally) return at the beginning of the month, and Marvel’s Black Widow was waiting at just the end of it. This of course did not happen. Nevertheless, for those looking for more bite-sized distractions over the usual binging blur on streaming services, there is still relief coming on Netflix. While all of the below movies are relatively recent, chances are you haven’t seen any of them in a long time, if at all. So sit back, relax, and find…

Amazon Prime Video New Releases: April 2021

New DVD release, , , ,
And just like that – here comes spring. Amazon Prime‘s list of new releases for April 2021 isn’t as cheery as one would expect from the sunny season. But perhaps that’s by design – you should be outside anyway! Amazon’s most prominent original series for April 2021 is undoubtedly Them from multi-hyphenate Lena Waithe. This horror anthology’s first season, subtitled “Covenant”, will center on a Black family in the 1950s who move from North Carolina to a white neighborhood in Los Angeles. It premieres on April 9. Given its name and premise, Them is drawing some (largely joke-y) comparisons to…

Disney+ New Releases: April 2021

New DVD release, ,
The Marvel machine continues apace on Disney+ this month. Disney+’s list of new releases of April 2021 is highlighted by the highlight of March’s list as well: The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. Three episode of this highly anticipated series will premiere in April, including the series(?) finale on April 23. But of course, it’s not all Marvel all the time on Disney+…sometimes its Star Wars time as well! There aren’t any new original Star Wars series coming to the streaming world until The Bad Batch premieres on May 4. It’s spiritual successor arrives in April, however. Star Wars: Clone…

Hulu New Releases: April 2021

New DVD release,
While the first day of spring technically belongs to March, everyone knows that it kicks into high gear in April. To celebrate the changing of the seasons, Hulu is finally bringing back its signature original series for April 2021. Season 4 of the multiple Emmy award-winning The Handmaid’s Tale premieres on April 28. It’s been awhile since we’ve seen June and her dystopian world. In fact, it’s been so long that our own world decided to endure its own dystopian pandemic in the meantime. Hopefully this series’ return will mean we can keep our political and social collapses on television…

James Bond: No Time to Die Release Date Moves From November to April 2021

New DVD release, , , ,
No Time to Die, the 25th official James Bond movie, is leaving its November 20 release date and jumping to April 2, 2021.

A Quiet Place Part II Delayed Until April 2021

New DVD release, , , ,
These are dark times for movie theaters. Once upon a time, A Quiet Place Part II, the much anticipated sequel to John Krasinski’s first breakout horror movie, was supposed to be among the big hits of spring 2020. But the movie then became one of the first to move at the last minute, a week ahead of its March 20 release. Since then the film was encouragingly placed on a Sept. 4 release date, but that too is now scuttled, and Paramount Pictures is opting to delay A Quiet Place Part II until April 23, 2020. The move comes attached…

Edgar Wright’s Last Night in Soho Moved to April 2021

New DVD release, , , ,
It appears we must wait a little longer to experience Edgar Wright’s first serious foray into horror. Indeed, the genre hopping writer-director took to Twitter Tuesday to confirm Last Night in Soho is now slated for a release date in April 2021. “Haunted by someone else’s past, but we’ll see you in the future,” Wright began teasing the plot of the movie. “It’s true. #LastNightinSoho is not quite finished yet due to Covid 19. But, I’m excited for you all to experience it, at a big screen near you, on April 23, 2021.” The news while not shocking is another…

New DVD release, , , , ,
James Bond fans won’t have to experience any serious absence of their favorite secret agent even though 007’s new thriller, No Time to Die, has had its release delayed by the coronavirus pandemic from this month to November. Fortunately, in addition to Pluto TV’s 24/7 Bond channel (which offers up 18 films with limited commercials), Amazon Prime in the US is now making 21 Bond movies — basically everything up until the current Daniel Craig era — available starting April 1, all in 4K Ultra-High Definition.
