Not sure which new releases to check out? Let us here at Decider help you figure out what to watch this weekend and where to stream it.

What would happen if every door and window in your home sealed shut with ho access to the outside world? While it might seem novel or even fun to live that reclusive life for a few days, what if it dragged on for years. That’s the premise of the new Netflix original movie The Last House, out this week. This week also marks the arrival of the new HBO docu-series Monsters of God, and the Billie Eilish concert film Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live) on Paramount+.

Netflix’s new thriller The Last House is directed by Louis Leterrier (Now You See Me, Fast X) and stars Greta Lee and Wagner Moura as a couple who, along with their children, become trapped in their own home, with no explanation and no way out. Will they figure out how and why they’re trapped before all of their resources run out?

Monsters of God is the latest limited docu-series from Eric Goode, the same man who brought us the wildly popular Tiger King and Chimp Crazy series. Monsters of God explores the same themes as his previous work, exploring the underground world of illegal animal smugglers. Expect more fascinating personalities in the five-part series. New episodes will drop weekly on Thursdays.

Billie Eilish – Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour (Live) is a concert film directed by James Cameron (yes, Avatar James Cameron), shot while Eilish performed a series of shows in Manchester, England in 2025. The theatrical version of the film was in 3D, but now that the streaming version has arrived on Paramount+, it’s still a fully immersive experience where Eilish performs 29 songs including all of her biggest hits, it just won’t be quite so three-dimensional.

The options above only scratch the surface, so you know that this weekend’s full lineup will have amazing options for what to watch this weekend!
