Director: Molly Gordon and Nick Lieberman
Stars: Jimmy Tatro, Molly Gordon, Ben Platt, Ayo Edebiri, Noah Galvin, Patti Harrison
Genre: Comedy
Rating: PG-13
Metacritic score: 70
Among all the great things about Theater Camp, it gives American Vandal's Jimmy Tatro the starring film role he deserves. He plays Troy, the clueless tech bro son of a theater camp director who is suddenly put in charge of the camp's operations for one tumultuous summer, much to the frustration of drama instructors Amos (Ben Platt) and Rebecca-Diane (Molly Gordon). As Troy tries to keep the camp financially afloat, Amos and Rebecca-Diane work on staging their annual original musical amid their own personal drama.

Year: 2023
Director: Brian Duffield

Genre: Horror, Sci-Fi, Thriller
Rating: PG-13

No One Will Save You, a nearly wordless thriller from Brian Duffield (Love and Monsters, The Babysitter), stars Kaitlyn Dever as a creative but lonely young woman named Brynn, whose alienation turns literal when extraterrestrials invade her childhood home one night. In order to confront her intruders, Brynn will have to face her past. Beam this one up; it's a lot of fun.
4.How to Blow Up a Pipeline (2023)
For fans of: Environmental thrillers
How to Blow Up a Pipeline
Neon
Year: 2023
Director: Daniel Goldhaber
Stars: Lukas Gage, Marcus Scribner, Kristine Forseth
Genre: Drama, Thriller
Rating: R
Metacritic score: n/a
Hulu is still one of the strongest streamers for great under-the-radar movies, and this 2023 film from Neon might be one of the best you'll see all year. How to Blow Up a Pipeline follows a group of youngsters who band together to take out a controversial oil pipeline, tiptoeing the line between environmental activism and domestic terrorism. It was a hit among critics, who lauded it as a taut thriller with eco-friendly themes, and it features a cast that includes The White Lotus' Lukas Gage, black-ish's Marcus Scribner, and The Society's Kristine Forseth.
5.Infinity Pool (2023)
For fans of: The twisted minds of the Cronenberg family, Alexander Skarsgård
Mia Goth and Alexander Skarsgård, Infinity Pool
NEON
Year: 2023
Director: Brandon Cronenberg
Stars: Alexander Skarsgård, Cleopatra Coleman, Mia Goth
Genre: Sci-Fi, Mystery, Thriller, Horror
Rating: R
Metacritic score: 72
If the name ""Cronenberg"" didn't tip you off, you should know that Infinity Pool is a bizarre and often disturbing film. (The director, Brandon Cronenberg, is the son of the king of body horror, David Cronenberg.) It follows a vacationing married couple, played by Alexander Skarsgård and Cleopatra Coleman, who, after an accident, begin to discover the dark, twisted secrets hidden beyond the walls of their resort. It's difficult to say much without spoiling everything, but this is certainly a movie that will stick with you long after it ends.
6.Rye Lane (2023)
For fans of: Breezy rom-coms, London
David Jonsson and Vivian Oparah, Rye Lane
Chris Harris/Searchlight Pictures
Year: 2023
Director: Raine Allen Miller
Stars: Vivian Oparah, David Jonsson
Genre: Comedy, Romance
Rating: R
Metacritic score: 83
This cute rom-com film set in the London neighborhoods of Peckham and Brixton has a tried-and-true setup — two people reeling from bad breakups have a chance encounter with each other, and you know the rest — but it's presented in a dazzling, magnetic way thanks to director Raine Allen Miller. Yas (Vivian Oparah) and Dom (Industry's David Jonsson) are twentysomethings who use their new friendship to deal with their exes over the course of a day, and who knows, maybe they will fall for each other. Who knows!?!?
7.Triangle of Sadness (2022)
For fans of: Eating the rich, literal toilet humor
Triangle of Sadness
Year: 2022
Director: Ruben Östlund
Stars: Harry Dickinson, Charlbi Dean, Woody Harrelson, Dolly de Leon
Genre: Comedy, Drama
Rating: R
Metacritic score: 63
Ruben Östlund's latest film won the Palme d'Or in 2022, Best Picture at the European Film Awards, and was nominated for Best Picture at this year's Academy Awards. But it also has a 63 score on Metacritic. It's one of those movies, a satirical look at and takedown of the rich and famous on a cruise ship, and for some the satire and black humor don't hit. Others love it though, and as one of the year's most polarizing Best Picture nominees, it's a mandatory watch.
8.Bruiser (2023)
For fans of: Coming-of-age stories, learning how to be a man, gut punches
Shamier Anderson and Jalyn Hall, Bruiser
Dan Anderson/Hulu
Year: 2023
Director: Miles Warren
Stars: Jalyn Hall, Shamier Anderson, Trevante Rhodes
Genre: Drama
Rating: TV-MA
Metacritic score: 81
First-time feature director Miles Warren arrives with the confidence of a veteran filmmaker with this family drama about a 14-year-old (Jalyn Hall) caught between his father (Shamier Anderson) and a mysterious drifter (Trevante Rhodes). It's a story about fatherhood and parenting, coming-of-age, and defending yourself. It's also one of the best things Onyx Collective, a subdivision of Disney focusing on Black stories, has produced.
9.Fire of Love (2022)
For fans of: Magma, French New Wave, love stories
Fire of Love
Rooftop Films
Year: 2022
Director: Sara Dosa
Stars: Maurice Krafft, Katia Krafft
Genre: Documentary
Rating: NR
Metacritic score: 83
This stunning film was nominated for Best Documentary at this year's Academy Awards, and for good reason. Fire of Love introduces audiences to Maurice and Katia Krafft, a pair of charismatic French volcanologists who bucked the stuffy stereotypes of scientists from the 1970s to early 1990s. Director Sara Dosa also innovates with a stylish collage of the Kraffts' massive library of film footage, multimedia animations, groovy music, and entrancing editing. But what makes Fire of Love better than the sum of its parts is the fascinating love triangle between Maurice and Katia, who were married, and the explosive volcanoes that drew them in. It's a nature documentary, a profile of a couple who found love against all odds, and an art film in one splendid package.
10.Riotsville, U.S.A. (2022)
For fans of: Learning about America's dark history
Riotsville, U.S.A.
Magnolia Pictures
Year: 2022
Director: Sarah Pettengill
Stars: Charlene Modeste
Genre: Documentary
Rating: NR
Metacritic score: 83
History repeats itself — or maybe it just never ends — in Riotsville, U.S.A. This well-reviewed 2022 documentary looks back on the social justice movement of the late 1960s and traces how America's police forces militarized in response. Its focus is on fake towns built by the Army, which were used to train police and the military to violently subdue protests. Director Sarah Pettengill uses archival footage and pointed narration to tell a story that has obvious parallels in the present.
11.Stars at Noon (2022)
For fans of: Beautiful, sweaty people
Margaret Qualley and Joe Alwyn, Stars at Noon
Zoey Kang/A24
Year: 2022
Director: Claire Denis
Stars: Margaret Qualley, Joe Alwyn, Benny Safdie, John C. Reilly
Genre: Drama, Thriller, Romance
Rating: NR
Metacritic score: 67
Claire Denis' latest film was a big hit at Cannes, and now it's on Hulu for you to form your own opinion about. A modern adaptation of Denis Johnson's 1984 novel, it stars Margaret Qualley as an American journalist stranded in Nicaragua and Joe Alwyn as the British guy she meets and immediately falls for, only to discover he's in deep with — wait for it — the CIA. It's a woozy, sweaty, and sexy romantic thriller elevated by a dynamic performance from Qualley.
12.Crimes of the Future (2022)
For fans of: David Cronenberg's twisted mind, Kristen Stewart
Kristen Stewart and Léa Seydoux, Crimes of the Future
Nikos Nikolopoulos/NEON
Year: 2022
Director: David Cronenberg
Stars: Kristen Stewart, Léa Seydoux, Viggo Mortensen, Scott Speedman
Genre: Sci-Fi, Drama, Horror
Rating: NR
Metacritic score: 67
David Cronenberg's name is synonymous with stomach-churning body horror, and his latest film is a return to the genre he helped pioneer. Set in an alternate future, Viggo Mortensen and Léa Seydoux star as a performance artist couple who make their money staging live surgeries in which they remove extra organs from the body for rapt audiences. They catch the attention of a government organization that keeps track of new organs, as well as a peculiar cult of people who are experimenting with their own form of biological performance art. It's a big old Cronenbergian blend of ideas that's guaranteed to make your squirm.
13.On the Count of Three (2021)
For fans of: Dark, dark, dark buddy comedies
Christopher Abbott and Jerrod Carmichael, On the Count of Three
Albert Camicioli
Year: 2021
Director: Jerrod Carmichael
Stars: Jerrod Carmichael, Christopher Abbott, Tiffany Haddish, Henry Winkler, JB Smoove
Genre: Drama, Comedy
Rating: NR
Metacritic score: 85
Jerrod Carmichael directs this dark buddy dramedy about two best friends – one played by Carmichael, the other by Christopher Abbott – who hatch a joint suicide pact. Before they kill themselves, though, they spend their last day alive taking care of unfinished business and engaging in shameless debauchery. It's difficult to recommend a movie with such upsetting subject material, but Carmichael's singular voice makes this one worth it.
14.Prey (2022)
For fans of: Predator movies
The Predator and Amber Midthunder, Prey
David Bukach
Year: 2022
Director: Dan Trachtenberg
Stars: Amber Midthunder, Dakota Beavers, Dane DiLiegro
Genre: Action, Sci-Fi, Drama, Thriller, Horror
Rating: R
Metacritic score: 69
Hulu went ahead and revived the Predator franchise, and this time it's a prequel. Prey is set in the Comanche Nation in the 1700s, and finds the Predator coming to Earth, where he faces off against a young warrior (Amber Midthunder) trying to protect her tribe. It has all the brawling and killing you want from a Predator movie, and as Jordan Hoffman said in his review for TV Guide, its setting feels refreshing.
15.Ultrasound (2022)
For fans of: Total mind f-cks, small-budget films
Breeda Wool and Vincent Kartheiser, Ultrasound
Year: 2021
Director: Rob Schroeder
Stars: Vincent Kartheiser, Chelsea Lopez, Bob Stephenson
Genre: Sci-fi, thriller
Rating: NR
Metacritic score: 55
This 2021 low-budget indie film from first-time director Rob Schroeder isn't a great movie, but it is the type of challenging sci-fi thriller that hardcore movie buffs will love to try to decipher. (Hence the 55 Metacritic score, it's a niche film targeted at fans of movies like Primer.) It starts with a man (Mad Men's Vincent Kartheiser) who is invited into a stranger's house after his car breaks down and is asked to have sex with the stranger's wife, and then turns into something really weird. It's entirely unpredictable and may even need a second watch to fully make sense of everything.
16.Aftershock (2022)
For fans of: Learning about medical crises
Aftershock
Hulu
Year: 2022
Director: Paula Eiselt and Tonya Lewis Lee
Genre: Sci-fi, Mystery
Rating: NR
Metacritic score: 89
This documentary from directors Paula Eiselt and Tonya Lewis Lee puts the focus on the healthcare crisis that disproportionately affects Black women, who face rising maternal death rates after childbirth. The film follows the families of two women, Shamony Gibson and Amber Rose Isaac, as they bring attention to this largely ignored issue.
