Club Benefits
Hulu is a great streaming service for streaming new movies. Not only does it regularly add originals and classics to its library, but, because it's owned by Disney, it's the streaming home for new releases from several Disney-owned studios. It's the perfect place to start building your next movie marathon.
This weekend, I have three movies recently added to Hulu that are a must-watch, including one of my favorite movies of 2025: "No Other Choice." This Korean film from Park Chan-wook is unhinged in the best possible way, and you can stream it right now. On May 1, you'll be able to watch "Philadelphia," and trust me when I say this Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington drama is a must-watch. Then, on May 2, Hulu is adding "Hallow Road," a little-known movie from last year that became a favorite for one of our staff.

'No Other Choice' (2025)
Genre: Korean black comedy thriller
What's it about? Man-su (Lee Byung-hun) has worked to build the perfect life. But when his papermaking company is sold to Americans, he's suddenly out of work. After months of unemployment, he concludes he has no other choice but to kill more talented candidates than him to ensure his next job interview will be his last.
Why you need to watch it: This movie is so absurd and unhinged, and I absolutely loved it. Some scenes are simply brilliant. There's definitely a darkness to this story, but it's so comical in its presentation that it allows you to detact from the more depressing themes.
Watch "No Other Choice" on Hulu now
'Philadelphia' (1993)
Genre: Legal drama
What's it about? Andy Beckett (Tom Hanks) is a younger gay man who has just been fired as a senior associate from a prestigious Philadelphia law firm because he has AIDS. In fact, he's clearly already dying from it. But he still wants justice, and to get it, he hires Joe Miller (Denzel Washington), who would not describe himself as an ally to the LGBTQ+ community, to say the least.
Why you should watch it: I just watched this movie as part of my ongoing Denzel Watchathon, and it blew me away. It's an incredible portrayal of the AIDS crisis and the struggles of gay men in 1990s America, and it's the only movie to feature Hanks and Denzel together. Read my review of "Philadelphia" and then stream this movie once it's available at the start of the month.
Watch "Philadelphia" on Hulu starting May 1
'Hallow Road' (2025)
Genre: Psychological horror
What's it about? This psychological horror film stars Rosamund Pike and Matthew Rhys as Maddie, a paramedic, and her husband Frank. This married couple lives a normal life, until one night, when they decide to attempt to help their daughter cover up the evidence of a car accident that she caused.
Why you need to watch it: In his review of "Hallow Road," TG's Rory Mellon declared the movie a "masterful chiller." He even ranked it in his top 10 favorite movies of 2025 (and he saw more than 110 movies in theaters last year). It's only 80 minutes long, so there's no reason to skip this one once it's streaming on Hulu.
Stream "Hallow Road" on Hulu starting May 2
