From 'My Mom Jayne' to 'The Woman in the Yard,' 10 movies to stream right now
In between making Fourth of July plans, be sure to watch a deep dive on Jayne Mansfield and get creeped out by a woman in a yard. Several new streaming films have arrived on your various streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon's Prime Video, Disney+ and more. There are theatrical releases finally coming home, including a Looney Tunes animated comedy and a sci-fi horror flick set in deep space, plus original fare like the debut from Steven Spielberg's filmmaking daughter. Here are 10 new and notable movies you can stream right now: 'Ash' A trippy paranoia space thriller that turns into a gonzo gore-fest. Eiza González plays an astronaut who wakes up on an alien planet, not knowing who she is but seeing a bunch of dead crew members around, and she needs to figure out if her rescuer (Aaron Paul) is on the level or not. Where to watch: Shudder 'The Day the Earth Blew Up' Who better to stave off an alien invasion than ... wait, what? Daffy Duck and Porky Pig?! This Looney Tunes animated comedy features the iconic 'toon twosome as roommates and coworkers at a chewing gum factory who uncover a mind-control plot when the launch of a new flavor turns people into zombies. Where to watch: Max 'KPop Demon Hunters' Catchy music, anime style and some horror combine in this kid-friendly action comedy. When the members of Korean pop trio Huntrix aren't busy being megastars, they protect their fans from supernatural dangers. But dark secrets and hormones become issues, thanks to their latest enemy: demons disguised as a hunky boy band. Where to watch: Netflix 'Love Me' Are you ready for a romantic sort-of-comedy between inanimate objects? Hundreds of years after mankind is wiped out, a smart buoy (Kristen Stewart) turns on and strikes up a friendship with the last satellite (Steven Yeun) launched into space. This weird couple literally gets more real as time passes, trying ice cream for the first time and opening up to each other. Where to watch: Paramount+ 'A Minecraft Movie' Kids are going to love it, as will anyone with a soft spot for the glorious weirdness of "Napoleon Dynamite." The adventure centers on misfits stuck in a fantasy world that makes the most of their creativity, with an unhinged Jack Black singing about lava chicken and a hilariously macho Jason Momoa gamely taking the brunt of the gags. Where to watch: Max 'My Mom Jayne' We knew Mariska Hargitay was one of TV's top cops. What we didn't realize is she's also a gifted documentarian. Hargitay was just 3 when her movie star mom, Jayne Mansfield, died, and the film is her way to figure out who Mansfield was. The documentary disconnects the sex symbol from the real person while also revealing the biological father Hargitay kept a secret. Where to watch: Max 'Nosferatu' Do you live for Prime Day and gothic thrillers with weird romance and bloodsuckers? Director Robert Eggers' remake of the horror classic finally comes to Amazon, with Lily-Rose Depp as a woman who's the obsession of an undead mustached menace (Bill Skarsgård). Where to watch: Prime Video 'Please Don't Feed the Children' With her first feature film, director Destry Allyn Spielberg – yes, the daughter of that Spielberg – creates an intense world where a pandemic has stricken adults instead of kids and teens on the run are taken in by a stranger (Michelle Dockery). Then Spielberg shows her true mettle by pulling off a twist that proudly goes full horror. Where to watch: Tubi 'Sally' While this revealing documentary about Sally Ride obviously touches on her being the first American woman in space, it's more interested in getting into her personal life. The movie digs into her tennis roots, the misogyny she dealt with regularly at NASA, and the lesbian romance she kept private for 27 years because she knew it wouldn't be accepted. Where to watch: Disney+, Hulu 'The Woman in the Yard' Danielle Deadwyler stars as an injured widow and single mother knocked for a loop by tragedy when a mysterious woman in a black veil shows up out of nowhere to haunt her family's yard. It's psychological horror that digs deep into depression and mental health, with a harrowing ending that leaves much up to audience interpretation. Where to watch: Peacock

'Many assumed that Bill had cheated on Linda through 2022 and 2023, but they were broken up by September 2022," the insider says. "Linda was still pretending they were together after the breakup, and Bill played along so she could transition with the least amount of public humiliation and avoid abrupt displacement.'

The source close to the former couple also says Holliday's social media activity "changed drastically" after she and Belichick split. A separate source confirmed to PEOPLE in September 2023 that the couple had split, noting that Belichick, 73, and Holliday, 62, had "been pretty separate for a while" by the time their breakup was announced. The couple had been dealing with relationship issues that were "not new" when they separated, the insider revealed. 'Bill is all about football and very busy now. He doesn't want a lot of public attention on this," the source told PEOPLE at the time. Currently, Belichick is dating Jordon Hudson, a former Bridgewater State University cheerleader who has been acting as his publicist through her company Trouble Cub Enterprises.

The Squid Game Season 3 VIPs Were More Cringe Than Ever — Why Did Bad Line Readings Slip Through Again…?
The following contains spoilers for Season 3 of , now streaming on Netflix. Almost exactly midway through 2025, we have a candidate for TVLine's annual Dumbest Line of Dialogue of the Year 'award'. More from TVLine Squid Game Recruits Oscar Winner to Bring Series Finale to a Tantalizing Close, Tease Potential U.S. Edition Dept. Q Makes Nielsen Streaming Top 10 Debut - and With a Decidedly Older Audience Save the Dates: The Chicken Sisters Season 2, Mom on Netflix and More '!' Squid Game Season 3 VIP That goofy observation came to us courtesy of one of the golden-masked VIPs in Squid Game Season 3, now streaming on Netflix. The idea behind the VIPs, I presume, is that somebody has to finance this highly illegal and incredibly deadly underground competition that dangles a 45.6 billion won (~$34 million) jackpot and comes with a pretty pricey infrastructure (guard salary/health plans, wardrobe, single-use coffins, Velcro patches, etc). And if you're going to front the Front Man some of those greenbacks, you deserve a front row seat for the competition's final rounds. But just as much as Squid Game Season 3 masterfully ratcheted up the on-screen tension with a version of Jump Rope that got my own trick knee quaking, every iota of pent-up drama dissipated from the room each time they cut away to the masked VIPs' reactions and utterly inane commentary. 'You have the father, the mother and the baby all in the same game? I mean…,' remarked the long-haired VIP (aka TEMU Ellis from Die Hard), before he mimed his mind being blown. 'It's like watching one of those family reality shows,' sniffed the grey bearded VIP. VIP jJnnifer tittered before chiming in, 'I must say, I'm quite impressed with the player pool this time.' Squid Game's Season 3 VIPs were a different lot from those we who made us cringe during Season 1. According to the closing credits and Google Translate, David Sayers played Richard; Hong Kong native Jane Wong played Jennifer; Jordan Lambertoni played Zach; Kevin Yorn (who reportedly is series creator/writer/director Hwang Dong Hyuk's lawyer!) played, well, Kevin; and a 'Bryan Bucco' played Zach. Thing is, Squid Game auteur Hwang Dong Hyuk absolutely knows what he's doing — his directing of Season 1 won an Emmy, while his writing earned a nomination. So, why are the VIP scenes so very, very bad? They're not cartoonish in a fun way, nor do they effectively serve as social satire. The VIP scenes could have been additive to the series, if, imagine, a Stellan Skarsgård type growled a wry observation during Sky Squid Game. Or if the actors/lawyer at hand were not done so dirty by the dialogue and editing. But apparently zero lessons were learned, or cared to be learned, from Season 1. Which is… a choice? How'd Squid Game End? Our Recap of the Unusual Season-Finale Showdown View List The matter of the painfully bad VIP scenes came up at the time of Season 1's release, and the actors from that troupe offered up theories on why the dialogue and line readings made our ears want to crawl up and die. 'Non-Korean performers often act with dialogue that is translated by a non-native – sometimes even by Google Translate — so it can sound unnatural,' one Season 1 VIP told the Guardian in fall 2021. It's also possible that the person editing the footage doesn't speak English as a first language, and thus might use a poor take. 'If I was editing a Russian actor speaking Russian, I wouldn't have any idea if he was saying his lines correctly,' said the Season 1 VIP above, 'or if his intonation was natural.' A second Season 1 VIP told the Guardian that 'heavy plaster masks' plus 'sitting 20 feet away from each other' added up to: 'We all had to yell our lines vaguely into the air, which added to the weird tonality of the delivery.' To recap, the VIP scenes: Were poorly written, and poorly acted (or edited) Reliably killed tension Were not dramatic in and of themselves (e.g. the inclusion of the baby could have been a point of debate… but wasn't) Told us nothing we could not have presumed about the game's backers (e.g. they're deplorable, shallow), and Arguably made the Front Man less menacing, the way he quietly did these idiots' bidding So… why did we get them again, at the same quality level, in Season 3?
