The last week of October begins, the one that takes us to the Halloween weekend, or All Saints’ Day for traditionalists. So here are our themed streaming recommendations, with a long list of films to watch in which – obviously – thriller and horror dominate. Among the new releases we therefore highlight the Spanish Apocalipsis Z: El Principio Del Fin and the French Libre, but take a look at the expiring contents because in the next few days several unmissable titles will be cancelled: not only “scary” films, but also true cinema masterpieces like Tenet and Dunkirk. The choice is yours and have a good week!
Apocalipsis Z: El Principio Del Fin (Original film) – release date 31 October
A strange disease similar to rabies begins to spread uncontrollably across the planet, transforming humans into extremely aggressive creatures. But Javier (Francisco Ortiz) has been experiencing his own personal apocalypse for some time: still affected by the loss of his wife in an accident, he has been depressed for a year and has been living isolated from his family, with Lúculo, his cat, as his only company. When the contagion spreads, his sister insists that he leave the city of Vigo and join her in the Canary Islands, but the plan fails. Javier and Lúculo are soon forced to leave, meeting unlikely but indispensable traveling companions on land and sea. Apocalipsis Z: The Beginning of the End is a story of pain, a journey of survival, both physical and emotional, with action, suspense, a rabid infection, a little blood… and a grumpy cat.
Libre (Original film) – release date 1 November
Inspired by the daring exploits of a legendary outlaw in late 1970s and early 1980s France, Libre follows the gripping story of Bruno Sulak (Lucas Bravo), a kind and daring criminal who, in addition to riches , also stole many hearts. Known for his charm and elegance, Sulak pulled off daring robberies without firing a single shot. However, as his fame grows, so does the relentless pursuit by George Moréas (Yvan Attal), a tenacious police commissioner with a special talent for outsmarting criminals. As Moréas draws near, Sulak’s escapes from prison become legendary, fueled by a longing for freedom and a burning desire for his lover Annie (Léa Luce Busato). In the chaos of their crime spree, Sulak and Annie become ultimate symbols of rebellion in the most exciting game of cat and mouse to grip the nation.
