Is it hot in here? It’s definitely hot in here. Of course I live in Texas and it’s been 107 for three days running with no end in sight. I try to stay motivated. Try to do things. But all I really wanna do is lie on the couch and watch movies. Luckily, AMC’s Shudder never fails to grab my attention.

As August comes barreling at me like a freight train on fire, I’m looking forward to binging their all new curated list of George A. Romero and Stephen King titles, including the return of the original Creepshow to the streaming platform.

Take a look at the full calendar of releases, and let us know what you’ll be watching on Shudder!

What’s on Shudder in August 2022?

August 1st:

Creepshow: A young boy’s horror comic book comes to life in a series of five terrifying tales: A dead father comes back for the piece of Father’s Day cake that his murderous daughter never served him. A meteorite turns a hapless yokel into a form of plant life. A cuckolded husband plots a seagoing revenge. Something in a crate under the stairs is eating people. And an obsessively clean billionaire suffers an uncontrollable infestation of cockroaches.

Land of the Dead: Legendary filmmaker George A. Romero’s latest undead epic finds humanity’s last remnants battling to survive the unspeakable truth: the zombie hordes besieging their city…are evolving.

Monkey Shines: Injected with human brain cells, a super intelligent female monkey is enlisted to help a wheelchair-bound quadriplegic get on with his life.

The Crazies: Ordinary citizens turn into homicidal maniacs after a chemical weapon is released in George Romero’s 1973 follow-up to Night of the Living Dead. After a mercifully brief foray into romantic comedy, Romero returned to the subject that made him famous – multiple maniacs attacking unsuspecting townspeople – and the government’s misguided response to the chaos.

Season of the Witch: After Night of the Living Dead, master of horror George A. Romero turned his eye to witches. On the surface, Joan Mitchell has it all – family, friends, and a beautiful home equipped with all the latest appliances. But when a neighbor educates her on the practice of witchcraft, Joan believes she’s discovered the perfect antidote to her monotonous suburban existence, and embarks upon a dark path that will lead to a shocking conclusion.

Carrie: Based on the best-selling Stephen King novel, Carrie is a high school loner with no confidence, no friends… and no idea about the extent of her secret powers of telekinesis. But when her psychotic mother and sadistic classmates finally go too far, the once-shy teen becomes an unrestrained, vengeance-seeking powerhouse who causes all hell to break loose in a frenzy of blood, fire and brimstone! Piper Laurie, John Travolta, and Amy Irving are terrific in this horror classic.

Misery: After his car crashes in the mountains during a blinding snowstorm, famous novelist Paul Sheldon is “rescued” from a car crash by Annie Wilkes, a fan obsessed with the main character in his series of novels. But when Wilkes reads his latest book–and learns he has killed her favorite character–she teaches Sheldon the real meaning of Misery.

Salem’s Lot: Driven by inner forces even he cannot understand, novelist Ben Mears (David Soul) returns to his hometown to write about a mysterious mansion that has intrigued him since childhood. But he discovers a horrifying secret: The community is slowly becoming a village of vampires.

Firestarter: Based on the Stephen King novel, this supernatural thriller stars Drew Barrymore as Charlie McGee, a young girl whose ability to start fires with her mind has dire consequences for everyone around her.

Firestarter: Rekindled: A maniacal agent has a personal score to settle with a woman who can start fires with her mind.

Cat’s Eye: Drew Barrymore, James Woods, Alan King, and Robert Hays star in this three-part anthology of Stephen King short stories connected by a stray cat who wanders through each tale. Chain smoker Morrison (Woods) joins a stop-smoking group run by sadistic Dr. Monatti (Alan King). A gambler named Cressner (Kenneth McMillan) makes a bet with his wife’s lover. And a young girl (Barrymore) is terrorized by a tiny troll.   

Needful Things: Sheriff Alan Pangborn is baffled — and a bit scared. Almost overnight, the residents of Castle Rock, Maine, the normally peaceful seaside community he serves, seem to have gone mad.

Allegoria: A group of artist’s lives become unwittingly entangled as their obsessions and insecurities manifest monsters, demons and death. The directorial debut of Powerman 5000 lead singer Spider One, Allegoria stars Krsy Fox, Adam Busch, Bryce Johnson, and Scout Compton. RLJE Flims will release film on SVOD and VOD onTuesday, August 2. (A Shudder Exclusive)
