The movies leaving Hulu this month
It's the last full month to soak up that summer heat, so make sure you get to the beach, go for a picnic, and do whatever else you want outdoors before the colder months come on through. But make sure you carve out at least a little time to spend indoors, too, because it's also the last time you'll be able to watch certain movies on Hulu. The popular streaming service is planning to say its final goodbyes to 16 movies in August.
There are many reasons why a movie might leave Hulu—the rights may no longer be available, or its popularity may not justify the cost of licensing it, for example. Whatever the reason, you may want to spend a night or two inside this month to catch some of these movies before they're gone.
The first movie on the chopping block is "Skinamarink," a 2022 Canadian experimental horror film about two children waking up in the middle of the night to find that their father is missing and all the windows and doors in their home have disappeared. Another notable 2022 horror movie leaving in August is "Nocebo," which is being taken off of Hulu on Aug. 23. This film stars Eva Green as a fashion designer who lives with a mysterious illness that leaves both her doctors and her husband frustrated.
Hulu is also saying goodbye to the 2021 Western action movie "The Last Son," starring musician Machine Gun Kelly, on Aug. 18. In this film, the musician plays an outlaw named Cal, who is hunted down by his father (Sam Worthington) to prevent a prophecy where he murders his father.
Fans of Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin might be sad to hear that Hulu is planning to get rid of the duo's 2022 comedy "Moving On" a few days earlier, on Aug. 13. In this movie, Fonda and Tomlin star as two estranged women who reunite to seek revenge against the husband of their recently deceased best friend.
