This is not a shock: There’s a lot of scary stuff coming to streaming on Max in October. What are they going to put up in October, colorful kids shows?
Nuts to that; Max is going full Halloween mode with premieres like the long-awaited remake of Stephen King’s Salem’s Lot, which will finally debut on Max on October 3. (1987’s A Return to Salem’s Lot will also be streaming on Max in October, in case you want to compare new and old.)
Also coming to streaming in October: The Franchise, a new comedy show set behind the scenes of an MCU-like blockbuster franchise. Plus, you’ll be able to watch recent A24 films MaXXXine and Tuesday with Julia Louis-Dreyfus, along with M. Night Shyamalan’s Trap.
