Josh Hartnett Slasher Thriller ‘Trap’ Heads Prime Video’s Newest Movie Lineup

Amazon Prime Video is beefing up its streaming catalog with a mix of fresh psychological thrillers, classic slasher flicks, and retro nineties comedies. Whether subscribers are looking for heart-pounding concert chaos or vintage horror, the platform has dropped some serious star power onto watchlists just in time for a weekend movie marathon. Leading the pack of fresh additions is M. Night Shyamalan’s twisty 2024 thriller *Trap*. The film stars Josh Hartnett as Cooper Abbott, a seemingly wholesome Philadelphia firefighter taking his teenage daughter, Riley (played by Ariel Donoghue), to a massive arena show for pop sensation Lady Raven (Saleka Night Shyamalan). But behind his dad-of-the-year facade, Cooper is secretly a notorious serial killer known as "The Butcher." When he realizes the entire concert venue is actually a massive law enforcement sting engineered to catch him, he has to find a way to escape without blowing his cover. ## Is Josh Hartnett movie Trap streaming on Prime Video *Trap* marks a major recent comeback moment for Josh Hartnett, who leans fully into the terrifying dual nature of his character. Viewers get front-row seats to a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game unfolding inside a buzzing concert venue. Between real-life pop musical performances from Saleka Night Shyamalan and Hartnett's chaotic moves to stay one step ahead of SWAT officers, the movie offers a unique spin on the claustrophobic thriller genre. If one serial killer is not enough for a weekend watchlist, Prime Video is also bringing back one of cinema's most legendary slasher icons. *Halloween II* is now available, picking up immediately after the harrowing events of the original horror classic. Michael Myers resumes his relentless stalker campaign against Laurie Strode, played by horror royalty Jamie Lee Curtis, while she attempts to recover from her injuries in a surprisingly deserted hospital. ## What are the best horror movies to watch on Prime Video this weekend For viewers wanting something a little lighter on blood but heavy on superstar charisma, the streaming service has added the 1999 comedy *The Muse*. Sharon Stone lights up the screen with a chic blonde pixie cut as a mystical figure who promises to solve a Hollywood screenwriter's creative slump. While she successfully reignites his artistic passion, her endless luxury demands turn his entire daily routine into an absolute nightmare. With everything from Josh Hartnett dodging federal agents to classic horror showdowns and nineties Hollywood satire, Amazon's latest movie update gives pop-culture fans plenty of reasons to stay on the couch.
