From "Scary Movie 6" to "Red Eye" The post The 3 Best New Movies to Watch on Paramount+ This Week appeared first on TheWrap .
As the week progresses, the Paramount+ streaming service offers a lineup of new movies worth watching. Among the selections, "Scary Movie 6" stands out as a fresh addition that may have been missed in theaters. This installment, released earlier in the summer, features a talented ensemble cast including Marlon Wayans, Anna Faris, and Regina Hall, returning to provide humorous takes on horror films. With Cindy playing a mom navigating horror tropes alongside her daughter, the film balances laughs and lighthearted enjoyment.
For those in need of a nostalgic trip, "Galaxy Quest" is also available on Paramount+. This comedy, now accessible on the platform, boasts an impressive star-studded cast led by Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver, and Alan Rickman. The story revolves around a group of actors from a show reminiscent of "Star Trek." As their fame wanes, they face an unexpected turn when real extraterrestrial beings seek their help against an evil force targeting their civilization.
The movie cleverly pokes fun at beloved sci-fi franchises, all while honoring the late Alan Rickman's exceptional talent.
Lastly, horror enthusiasts can find solace in "Red Eye," a Wes Craven thriller that strikes a balance between fright and entertainment. Starring Rachel McAdams as Lisa, a hotel manager caught in a terrifying situation on a plane, the film sees her entangled with a charming yet dangerous terrorist played by Cillian Murphy. The twist comes when Lisa realizes Jackson Rippner is not who he seems, thrusting her into a fight for survival and rescue of her father hostage.
With its blend of suspense and star-driven performances, "Red Eye" offers a fitting selection for viewers seeking a spooky, yet not too terrifying, cinematic experience as they gear up for Halloween season.
