The year’s biggest surprise hit at the movie theater is coming to streaming soon, and it’s perfect timing! HBO Max just announced that the most talked-about horror film of the year will be available online, just when everyone was hoping it would arrive in time for Halloween.
Zach Cregger’s latest film, *Weapons*, the follow-up to his hit *Barbarian*, will start streaming on HBO Max on October 24th. This timing is perfect for horror fans, as it arrives just before Halloween, the most popular time of year for watching scary movies. It will also air on the HBO channel one day later, on October 25th.
The trailer for *Weapons* captivated audiences earlier this year with a chilling and puzzling story: At 2:17 AM one morning, nearly every child in a class vanished from their homes, leaving only one behind. The film centers on the town’s residents as they grapple with loss and attempt to uncover the truth. It’s best to go into *Weapons* knowing as little as possible about the plot to fully appreciate its impact.
This movie doesn’t tell its story in a straightforward way. Instead, it jumps around in time and shows events through different characters’ eyes. You get bits and pieces of the story, and just when things start to make sense from one perspective, the film shifts back to an earlier moment with someone else.
Everything throughout the film expertly leads to a climax that will genuinely surprise you. The last twenty minutes are both shocking and emotionally satisfying, creating a truly memorable experience that helped build strong word-of-mouth buzz for the film when it was in theaters.

October has been a great month for horror fans on HBO Max. Several scary movies arrived throughout the month, starting with a large batch at the beginning, followed by *The Substance* on October 10th. And while *Weapons* isn’t available until October 24th, it continues the trend of spooky content.
Here’s a complete list of horror movies added to HBO Max on October 1st.
This is a list of horror and thriller titles, including film series like *A Nightmare on Elm Street*, *Friday the 13th*, and *The Mummy*, as well as standalone films such as *Beetlejuice*, *The Shining*, *Get Out*, and *Talk to Me*. It also includes titles like *Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde* (in multiple versions), *Poltergeist*, *The Exorcist*, *Halloween*, *Insidious*, *X*, and *Zombies on Broadway*, alongside older films like *The Walking Dead* (1936) and *Freaks*.
