It’s finally Friday! You’re just hours from the weekend, and you deserve a treat for making it through this week. Why not watch a new movie? With video on demand, you can stream movies that have just hit or recently left theaters all from the comfort of your living room. So what’s new on demand this weekend? Amazon Video, iTunes, Vimeo, and Vudu have you covered.
There are two big releases to look forward to — the big budget The Legend of Tarzan and the quirky indie flick starring a dead Daniel Radcliffe, Swiss Army Man. Also, with the release of a new Purge movie and 31, this is a good weekend for horror flicks. Want another reason to be skeptical of fraternity life? The Nick Jonas and James Franco led Goat has you covered. All of this and so much more awaits you this weekend.
Swiss Army Man
Remember when everyone was freaking out a few months ago about Daniel Radcliffe playing a flatulent corpse? Yeah, this is that movie. This fantasy drama follows a young man (Dano) who is stuck on a deserted island and is about to end it all … until he meets a certain dead wizard. Is there a love stronger than that between a dying man and his corpse bestie? We’re seriously asking. This delightful movie is weird.

My Blind Brother
Starring Adam Scott, Nick Kroll, and Jenny Slate, this comedy follows two competitive siblings who fall for the same girl. Robbie (Scott), a blind athlete, has always been beloved by the community, and his brother Bill (Kroll) just can’t handle it. Can these siblings get past their jealousy? You’ll have to watch to see.

Goat
Now that we’re comfortably in the school year, it’s time to explore the dark side of fraternities. Starring Nick Jonas and James Franco, Goat follows 19-year-old Brad, a college freshman who just wants to fit in. However, what starts of as fun fratty fun quickly turns disturbing.

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi
If you’re not tired of hearing about Benghazi, may we suggest getting a little political this weekend. Directed and co-produced by Michael Bay, this drama takes a fictionalized look at the Islamic militant attacks on the U.S. Consulate in 2012. Starring John Krasinski and Pablo Schreiber, this is a good option if you’re in the mood for a war movie.
