There are some blockbuster movies now available on VOD this weekend, including one of the biggest hits of the spring, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. The completely weird and mystifying in a good way Sasquatch Sunset is also out on demand this weekend, as is one the the year’s most-talked-about movies, Challengers.
Luca Guadagnino’s Challengers stars Zendaya, Mike Faist, and Josh O’Connor as tennis players with a complicated romantic and professional history. Adding to the sexy sports drama’s prestige are costumes by Loewe and music by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.
These are just a few of the films that are available to watch on Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, YouTube, and through your cable service this week. Check out what movies are available to buy or rent on demand now.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is the fifth movie in the Godzilla/Kong Monsterverse. Rebecca Hall, Bryan Tyree Henry and Kaylee Hottle return to the franchise, and are joined by Dan Stevens and Fala Chen in this new movie that brings the two titans, Godzilla and Kong Kong, together again. Incidentally, after just six weeks in theaters, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire has already become the highest-grossing Godzilla movie ever.
Sasquatch Sunset
In Sasquatch Sunset, Riley Keough and Jesse Eisenberg star as two sasquatches living in the woods of Northern California where they, along with two others, roam the woods, have sex, and search for other sasquatches. The actors, dressed in hairy, full body costumes and performing with essentially no dialogue, are virtually unrecognizable in what might be the most original movie of the year, thanks to the writing and direction of David and Nathan Zellner.
