September Preview: 22 TV Shows & New Movies to Watch at Home
In the gallery above, our editors have selected the coming month's most promising TV shows (including limited series and specials) as well as movies available to watch at home through VOD and digital purchases, listed in order by premiere date. Many of these titles haven't been reviewed yet (and we haven't seen them), but they are the most intriguing new releases on paper, at least, arriving in September.
Movie streams September 4 on Netflix. The third feature directed by iconoclastic screenwriter Charlie Kaufman follows Anomalisa and Synecdoche, New York. His Netflix debut is a loose adaptation of Iain Reid's novel (about a young man and his new girlfriend's trip to visit his parents at a snowy, remote farm) starring Jessie Buckley, Jesse Plemons, Toni Collette, and David Thewlis. Ostensibly a horror film, Things is filled more with existential dread than traditional scares, and most critics seem taken by Kaufman's unique and complex vision, though a few find it too frustrating and/or morose.
