Spooky season is nearly here.
And Peacock, Universal’s direct-to-consumer streaming platform, has just unveiled its Halloween programming line-up, full of tricks and treats from the studio’s back catalog, as well as two new series (“Teacup” and “Hysteria!”) for some fresh scares.
In 2022 and ’23, there was at least one big Blumhouse movie that simultaneously debuted on Peacock — in ’22, it was David Gordon Green’s trilogy-capping “Halloween Ends” and last year, it was the video game adaptation “Five Nights at Freddy’s” (both were still theatrical hits, despite their streaming status). This year doesn’t have anything quite like that, but it’s still a powerful collection of titles for every viewer.
The Sept. 1 batch includes classics like “Bride of Frankenstein,” “It Came From Outer Space” and “Werewolf of London;” 1980s favorites like “Halloween III: Season of the Witch,” “The Funhouse” and “The Thing;” along with more modern hits like the original “Candyman,” Jordan Peele’s “Us” and several entries in the “Saw” franchise.
The Oct. 1 batch has a similarly stacked collection, with the ’80s remakes of “The Blob” and “The Fly,” the 2010s remake of “Fright Night,” both of Rob Zombie’s “Halloween” movies and, since it involves all sorts of witchcraft and wizardry, the “Harry Potter” movies. You know, for the kids.
See the full line-up below and get your popcorn and tiny candy bars ready.
