What’s New to Stream on Amazon Prime for December 2019

Amazon Prime is the only streaming service with a cost that also gets you free shipping, and that my friends is a deal. They’re in the Original programming game, but their biggest offering remains the ton of films available to watch anytime for Prime members.

The complete list of titles hitting Amazon Prime this month — December 2019 — is below, but first I’m going to shower some affection and point some eyeballs towards a few specific titles.

Red Dots

Amazon Prime Pick of the Month

Fast Color (2019) splashes across your screen on 12/11 and is absolutely worth your time. The tale of three generations of women with special powers, the film takes genre tropes like a near post-apocalyptic setting and superhero origin story and shapes them into an emotionally glorious journey. Gugu Mbatha-Raw takes lead — always a good sign — and along with director (Julia Hart) and the actors playing her mother and daughter the film is an empowering tale for women (and women of color) everywhere. It’s also a damn fine little genre thriller.


Great Creepy Crawlies

Phase Iv

Phase IV (1974) is the legendary Saul Bass’ sole feature effort as director, and it is a damn masterpiece pairing a documentary-like feel at times with a story about ants evolving beyond our comprehension. It sounds silly, but the film plays it all straight to wonderful effect. Bug (1975) takes the more familiar genre route with its mischievous bugs, and viewers will be happy about it as the little bastards kill, maim, and start a fire in some poor woman’s hair. It’s glorious. Both films crawl into your brain starting 12/1.


Critically Acclaimed!

The Last Black Man In San Francisco

The Aviator (2004) lands 12/1, and if you’ve already seen The Irishman (2019) on that other streaming service this is as good a place as any to continue your Scorsese marathon. Leonardo DiCaprio headlines as Howard Hughes in this epic biopic, and he plays crazy and crazy ambitious well. The Last Black Man in San Francisco makes his presence known starting 12/5, and while I haven’t seen it yet I’ve heard nothing but praise for its timely tale.

‘Fear Street’ Spoiler Review: Netflix’s Horror Trilogy Mines Nostalgia While Looking to the Future

Netflix’s Fear Street trilogy, a three-week spree of crimes against innocent Shadysiders, ended on Friday. It’s possibly the biggest slasher-movie event since the 2018 Halloween broke box-office records for its franchise and production company. There have been other slasher flicks since then; the bloody body-swap Freaky comes to mind as one genre torch-bearer, seen mostly on VOD late last year. However, with its staggered release pattern — instant summer sequels, now available to stream! —  Fear Street  has built up a sustained momentum this month that goes unmatched by other recent entries in the genre. We took a non-spoiler look at all three  Fear Street films as they launched:  Part One: 1994  on July 2,  Part Two: 1978  on July 9, and Part Three: 1666  on July 16. Now, as the dust settles in the town of Shadyside, we’re ready to dive into the deep end with a spoiler-filled look at the plot twists, character deaths, and buried themes of the whole decade-hopping trilogy.

Yes, ‘Eternals’ Will Explain Why These Superheroes Didn’t Help Out During ‘Avengers: Endgame’

Eternals  may become the latest example of the many balancing acts that any shared universe will inevitably be asked to navigate. After all, constructing a timeline with a lived-in sense of history must stand up to scrutiny. While fans should generally approach movies with the benefit of the doubt (these are, after all, fictional works made up by human beings rather than an actual historical retelling), creators tend to obsess over these sorts of details. That’s why Marvel producers Nate Moore and Kevin Feige offer reassurances that there’s a very good canonical reason the Eternals didn’t bother showing up to help Captain America fight Thanos. Entertainment Weekly  has the lowdown on all aspects of Eternals , from director Chloe Zhao’s  influences to introductions for each of the main heroes. There’s also an interesting nugget included in the cover story about the movie’s place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Described as “…largely a standalone story, focusing specifically on th
