You’ve just made it through the first work week of 2018 and now you’re about to kick back and enjoy the first weekend of 2018. So many hours to kill, definitely indoors because it’s most likely bone-chillingly cold outside where you are. Why not get warm on the couch and watch something this weekend, something totally new!�� Whether you use Amazon VideoiTunesVudu or your cable’s on demand service, there are always a lot of new releases out there waiting for you to discover.

After first arriving on VOD a few weeks ago, you can now rent Battle of the Sexes and American Made. Both films take on true stories from 20th century American history, albeit one is about tennis and the other is about drug smuggling. Also arriving on VOD this week Wonderstruck, a mystery film starring Michelle Williams and Julianne Moore that tells the tale of two separate children on a quest to find their parents.

What else can you buy or rent this week? Find out by taking a look at the collection of engrossing horror flicks, true tales, and informative documentaries now available for you to enjoy from the comfort of your very own home!

Happy Death Day

Have you ever wondered what it would look like if Groundhog Day was a slasher film? That concept comes to life in this surprise hit horror film, a movie that drops a self-absorbed college student (Jessica Rothe) into a deadly day that just won’t end, a day that always ends with her grisly murder no matter what she does to stop it! This fresh mash-up of two familiar film formats won over audiences big time last year, bringing its domestic box office total to over $50 million. That’s a massive haul for a film made for under a tenth of that! You’ll be able to rent Happy Death Day on January 16th.

The Snowman

Oh, The Snowman. People had high hopes for this thriller, especially since it stars Michael Fassbender. But… well, this one didn’t turn out how anyone expected! Critical response to the film was super negative, with many wondering what the hell they’d just watched. Then stories of the film’s troubled production started to come out, including a rushed shoot in Norway that concluded before chunks of the script had even been shot. What remained was The Snowman, a film that probably isn’t worth shelling out full price for, but it might make a good watch for those that love to watch big screen messes unfold in the comfort of their own home. You can rent The Snowman beginning on January 16th.
