From comedy to action and thrills, this week’s new movies on VOD have everything. Ilana Glazer and Michelle Buteau star in the comedy Babes, while 50 Cent and Mel Gibson head to the desert to find a serial killer in Boneyard.
You can also check out the drama Chestnut, starring Stranger Things‘ Natalia Dyer and Fargo‘s Rachel Keller. In Chestnut, Dyer plays Annie, a young woman biding her time during the summer after college graduation before she has to move across the country for her new job. While she’s home, she becomes entangled in a love triangle with a man and a woman she meets in a bar (played by Keller and Danny Ramirez), which gives her summer a thrilling jolt, and complicates her feelings about leaving.
