It's a big week for big movies to watch on big screens at home. Some of you may even be set up to watch big movies on bigger screens outside in your backyards. (Don't forget to invite your neighbors.) We've got a slew to share, so let's get to it without further delay!
Fandango At Home
See what premium titles are available to watch on Vudu this week!
Stomping onto home video, Jurassic World Dominion continues the adventures of dinosaur lovers Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard, while welcoming back Laura Dern, Sam Neill and Jeff Goldblum. You're going to need bigger speakers.
Ethan Hawke portrays a diabolical child killer in The Black Phone, trapping young Mason Thomas in a soundproof basement, where the only possible instrument for survival is the titular telephone. You'll want to surround yourself with friendly faces to watch this frightening thriller.
Viggo Mortensen, Léa Seydoux and Kristen Stewart star in David Cronenberg's Crimes of the Future, a body horror thriller with a twist. Your stomach may be in knots with this one, so prepare refreshments accordingly.
Things are a lot friendlier in Brian and Charles, as a lonely man (David Earl) creates a robot companion (Chris Hayward). Need we mention that complications occur?
