Weapons Coming to HBO Max for Halloween

Are you ready for a late-night chiller? Zach Cregger’s Weapons is set to bring a whole new twist to the classic “Have you checked the children?” horror question. The spine-tingling flick will be available on HBO Max starting October 24 and on HBO itself beginning October 26. So, whether you’re in the mood for a suspense-filled evening or need to spice up your Aunt Gladys Halloween ensemble after watching the movie, this is the perfect choice.

If you loved Cregger’s previous hit, Barbarian, you’re likely in for a treat with Weapons. Like its predecessor, Weapons kicks off with a familiar vibe that will keep you on your toes as the plot unfolds through various perspectives, leading up to a mind-blowing climax and an adrenaline-pumping chase scene.

The talented cast includes Julia Garner as a teacher dealing with a class that mysteriously vanishes, Benedict Wong portrays the concerned school principal, Josh Brolin embodies an over-involved parent, Alden Ehrenreich takes on the role of a cop easily swayed, Cary Christopher plays the knowledgeable kid, Austin Abrams appears as a Willow fan and junkie, and Amy Madigan is none other than Aunt Gladys herself.

Prepare to dive into Weapons starting October 24 on HBO Max, and be sure to have a bowl of popcorn ready for added thrills. Looking for more entertainment news?
