New Movies on Demand: ‘Angel Has Fallen,’ ‘The Shed,’ ‘Good Boys,’ and More

Friday, Friday, Friday! Since we said it three times in a row — in true Beetlejuice fashion — the end of the week is finally here. That’s how it works, right? Regardless, you made it to the weekend and that’s a big accomplishment! After a crazy stressful week filled with annoying deadlines, griping parents and that one friend who cannot learn to chew with his/her mouth closed (I’m looking at you, Stacy!), you deserve to take this weekend to recover from that debilitating sensory overload. And what better way to do so than by holing up all weekend and watching a bunch of movies? If you agree, then this weekend you’re in luck because whether you use Amazon Video, iTunes, Vudu or your cable’s on demand service, there are a ton of new movies out this week for you to explore.

The universe is smiling down upon us this weekend with a wide variety of movies for us to enjoy. Fans of the Fallen franchise better buckle up because Angel Has Fallen is available to buy on VOD. The latest installment in this series follows Secret Service agent Mike Banning once more, but this time as a man on the run. After Banning is wrongfully accused of an assassination attempt against the President, Banning must escape custody and team up with unlikely allies to find out the truth. And for those who prefer to rent their movies instead, fan-favorites including Good BoysThe Angry Birds Movie 2 and After the Wedding are now available to rent as well!

Curious about what else is out there? Check out what other comedies, dramas and action films you can buy or rent this week.

Angel Has Fallen

Gerard Butler and Morgan Freeman are back in Angel Has Fallen, the third installment in the action-packed Fallen series. This time, however, Agent Mike Banning is not exactly the hero: when an assassination attempt is made on the President, Secret Service Agent Banning is wrongfully accused and is taken into custody. Desperate to clear his name and find the real threat to the President, Banning escapes custody and goes on the run, evading his own agency and the FBI during his dogged search.

The Shed

Just because Halloween season is over doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy a scary movie! From the brilliantly-twisted minds that brought you SAW, here is The Shed: a horror story that combines the terrors of adolescent bullying with the terrors of supernatural demons. Stan and his best friend Dommer have been human punching bags for the majority of their lives, but that soon changes when Stan discovers that a bloodthirsty vampire is living in his backyard shed. While Stan realizes they must get rid of the being as soon as possible, Dommer has other ideas in mind…
