‘Backrooms’
Kane Parsons tapped into a generation of young horror fans with this unnerving chiller.

When he goes missing, his therapist (Renate Reinsve) searches for him and also finds a plethora of creepy claustrophobia and overwhelming anxiety.

‘Best of the Best’
In what’s pretty much “Pitch Perfect” with South Asian dancing, Maya (Maitreyi Ramakrishnan) and Anjali (Priyanka Kedia) are besties and UCLA freshman who make the Bollywood-fusion dance team. They navigate personality issues within the group and go for a national championship in a derivative comedy with fun dance sequences.

‘Jackass: Best and Last’
What are we going to do without a movie series that features human marionettes getting tased and dudes getting creatively smacked in the groin? Johnny Knoxville finishes off his “Jackass” film run with a bunch of new bits showing people doing stupid things to each other, plus greatest hits (sometimes literally) from the previous efforts.
Where to watch: Paramount+
‘The Love Hypothesis’
Based on Ali Hazelwood’s best-selling novel, the rom-com centers on a brilliant doctoral candidate (Lili Reinhart) and a dreaded biology professor (Tom Bateman) – nicknamed “Dr. Evil” by students – who fake a relationship to help each other out. Naturally, they catch feelings for each other but not without a good helping of emotional drama.

‘Rich Flu’
In this “eat the rich” social satire, Mary Elizabeth Winstead stars as a corporate executive who lands a fortune. It couldn’t happen at a worst time, though, as a mysterious virus begins to kill the wealthiest people in the world, the sickness causes everybody else to turn on them, and the fat cats try to get rid of their money in order to save themselves.

‘Stop! That! Train!’
Like “Airplane!” with drag queens, the disaster-movie spoof stars Ginger Minj and Jujubee, who hop from being low-level Stank Rail train stewardesses to the luxury line Glamazonian just in time to deal with a “Stormaganza” and a haunted railway. Everything about this comedy is campy and fabulous, from fun cameos to RuPaul as the president.

‘Supergirl’
Milly Alcock is a joy to watch as Kara, a jaded, self-destructive protagonist living in a gnarly cosmic landscape in this scrappy DC superhero adventure. When her beloved dog Krypto is poisoned, Kara teams with a vengeful teen (Eve Ridley) and a rambunctious bounty hunter (Jason Momoa) to hunt down the vicious outlaw responsible.
Where to watch: HBO Max
‘Toy Story 5’
Ragdoll cowgirl Jessie (voiced by Joan Cusack) takes the reins in the newest installment, which smartly brings the franchise into the Internet era. Bonnie gets a tablet computer named Lilypad (Greta Lee), who helps connect the girl with friends but is a smarmy existential threat to Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz (Tim Allen) and the gang.
Where to watch: Disney+
‘Tuner’
Leo Woodall stars in the heist thriller as Niki, a piano tuner with sensitive hearing, perfect pitch and an allergy to noise. When his partner Harry (Dustin Hoffman) is hospitalized, Niki uses his ears to make some extra cash as an ace safecracker, though his criminal side gig threatens a new romance with a gifted composer (Havana Rose Liu).

‘Unabomber’
The unconventional biopic depicts two time periods in the life of domestic terrorist Ted Kaczynski.
