5 Movies to Stream This Week on Netflix, Hulu, and More

Key Takeaways

• Bugonia from director Yorgos Lanthimos earned a Best Picture nomination at the 2025 Oscars
• A Haunting in Venice arrives on Hulu April 30, blending supernatural horror with Agatha Christie mystery
• Colleen Hoover's Regretting You joins the streaming lineup with Allison Williams and Dave Franco

April has delivered solid streaming releases, with Marty Supreme on HBO Max and Apex on Netflix leading last week's picks. This week is quieter on original premieres. That's typical for month's end, so expect May to bring a heavier slate.

The standout this week is Bugonia from Yorgos Lanthimos, which earned a Best Picture nomination at the 2025 Oscars. Right behind it is a film from Robert Eggers that promises to unsettle. Here are five movies worth your time across Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video, and other services.

Bugonia (Yorgos Lanthimos)

Lanthimos continues his streak of unsettling, visually striking films. Bugonia earned recognition at the 2025 Oscars with a Best Picture nomination. The director behind Poor Things and The Favourite brings his signature blend of dark humor and uncomfortable social commentary. Emma Stone returns as a collaborator, cementing their productive creative partnership.

A Haunting in Venice

Kenneth Branagh's love for Agatha Christie is well documented. After winning an Oscar for Belfast, his first move was reprising Hercule Poirot in Death on the Nile. The third installment in his Christie series became his most effective adaptation yet.

Set in 1947, Poirot attends a séance at a Venetian palazzo. The ritual goes wrong. Someone dies. What makes A Haunting in Venice stand apart is its incorporation of supernatural horror into the murder mystery format. That's a welcome change for a franchise that could have grown stale.

The film runs 104 minutes and carries a PG-13 rating. Hulu adds A Haunting in Venice on April 30.

Regretting You (Colleen Hoover Adaptation)

You know a writer has arrived when the marketing title becomes "Colleen Hoover's Regretting You." After It Ends with Us became a box office hit, Hollywood wanted more Hoover adaptations. This romantic drama stars Allison Williams, Dave Franco, Mckenna Grace, and Mason Thames.

Hoover's novels translate well to screen because of their emotional hooks and plot twists. Regretting You follows that formula. The cast brings established talent to material that already has a built-in audience from the book's readership.

Robert Eggers' Latest Horror

Robert Eggers built his reputation on The Witch, The Lighthouse, and Nosferatu. His films create dread through atmosphere, period authenticity, and slow-building tension. His latest work continues that approach and joins this week's streaming lineup.

Eggers' films reward patient viewers. If you liked his previous work, this one follows the same template. If you found them too slow, this won't change your mind.

What Else to Watch

The end of April typically sees fewer original premieres as streaming services prepare their May slates. Some films from last week remain worth catching up on, including Marty Supreme on HBO Max and Apex on Netflix. Both should stay near the top of their platform charts through the week.
