Prime Video once again has a stellar lineup of movies and shows for the month of August 2024. That's especially true for the "shows" part of that statement.

The 7 Best New Movies Coming to Prime Video in August 2024

Most science fiction movie franchises that get past six films are fairly impressive. Way back before the MCU blew up in 2012 or the Star Wars sequels began in 2015, sci-fi film franchises generally didn’t get into the double-digits. In fact, the seemingly immortal Planet of the Apes franchise just now released its 10th film overall. Star Wars has 11 theatrical films, but five of those all came out in the last nine years. This summer, the Alien franchise will release its ninth film in very fragmented continuity, which funnily enough, has the subtitle Romulus, a term that was arguably popularized by the scrappiest science fiction franchise of them all — Star Trek.

Sci-fi, perhaps more than any other genre, lends itself to producing cult classics. After all, by definition, the genre deals with speculative and futuristic ideas, meaning that they're always literally ahead of their time. Sometimes, science fiction films wind up being too forward-thinking for contemporary audiences, being dismissed on release only to be hailed as masterpieces decades later.

The latest Deadpool & Wolverine trailer makes it look like the film features a multiverse of madness (minus Doctor Strange). Although the new clip is short, and provides only fleeting glimpses of them, it does pretty much confirm that you are going to get to see some version of the Deadpool Corps in the film. The Deadpool Corps, for those who don’t obsessively follow Marvel Comics, is a whole team comprised of alternate versions of the O.G. Deadpool. In addition to him, there was also Dogpool (who’s been featured prominently in other trailers for the film), Headpool (which was the severed zombie head of Deadpool from the Marvel Zombies universe), Kidpool, and Lady Deadpool — AKA Wanda Wilson, a Deadpool of yet another alternate timeline.

In a genre where it's arguably easier to earn a bad review, horror movies face a different level of criticism, especially from respected critic Roger Ebert. A fan of the genre, Ebert appreciated good horror movies, saying, "They can exorcise our demons." However, Ebert was a vocal opponent of horror movies that inflicted violence and gore without reason, often writing about the reactions of fellow audience members and what it said about their relationship to the acts carried out onscreen. In his lengthy list "Ebert's Most Hated," many of those films include horror movies that earned higher than a one-star rating.
