It’s hard to believe but October has arrived. Spooky season is here and awards season is right around the corner. That means horror fans will be eating well this month and studios will begin rolling out some of their biggest movies it hopes of garnering attention from awards voters. This month sees one of the mostly anticipated movies of the year, a wide range of chillers, some solid streaming fare, and a particularly intriguing biopic.

Here are 5 October movies to watch for…

“Killers of the Flower Moon” (October 20th)

Without question the most exciting movies coming out in October is Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon”. It’s a big deal any time we get a new Scorsese film. This one, based on David Grann’s 2017 book of the same name, looks to be one of the 80-year-old legend’s most ambitious films yet. It’s a 3-hour and 26-minute period epic that features a sterling cast that includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, Lily Gladstone, Jesse Plemons, Brendan Fraser, and John Lithgow. In theaters October 20th.

“Priscilla” (October 6th)

In just a few days writer-director Sofia Coppola is back with “Priscilla”, a biographical drama based on Priscilla Presley’s 1985 memoir “Elvis and Me”. The film sees Cailee Spaeny playing the wife of the King of Rock and Roll. The story follows twelve years of Priscilla’s life and takes a considerably more understated approach than Baz Luhrmann’s Oscar nominated “Elvis”. It also stars Jacob Elordi, Dagmara Domińczyk, Raine Monroe Boland, Emily Mitchell, and Rodrigo Fernandez-Stoll. In theaters October 6th.

“Five Nights at Freddy’s” (October 27th)

Horror fans will have plenty of movies to choose from over the next few weeks. Perhaps one of the wackiest is director Emma Tammi’s “Five Nights at Freddy’s”. Based on the popular video game series, the story takes place in a fictional family pizza restaurant called Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. The restaurant’s mascot, an animatronic bear named Freddy, and his robotic cohorts turn into killers after the strike of midnight. Sound ridiculous? I certainly hope that it is. The film stars Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio, Matthew Lillard, Kat Conner Sterling, and Mary Stuart Masterson. In theaters October 27th.

“Fair Play” (October 13th)

Chloe Domont writes and directs “Fair Play”, a semi-erotic workplace thriller which marks Domont’s feature film debut. The movie grabbed a lot of attention after premiering at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. It received a very limited big screen release but will be premiering on Netflix within the coming days. Engaged couple Phoebe Dynevor and Alden Ahrenreich work at a cutthroat hedge fund firm where office romances are forbidden. After she gets a promotion that he coveted, their relationship begins to unravel. The film also stars Eddie Marsan, Rich Sommer, and Sebastian de Souza. Streaming on Netflix October 13th.

“Foe” (October 6th)

The always compelling Saoirse Ronan and the internet’s current ‘it guy’ Paul Mescal star in “Foe”, a science-fiction thriller from director Garth Davis who’s perhaps best known for his 2016 film “Lion”. In what plays as much as a psychological thriller as it does sci-fi, “Foe” sees its two stars playing a married couple who have their lives turned upside down after he’s chosen for an experiment on a large space station. While he’s gone she’s left behind with his AI replica. Aaron Pierce also stars. In theaters October 6th.
