New To Amazon Prime Video For May 2019: Movies, TV, And Originals (US)
Finally, Good Omens has arrived.
May is almost here, and Amazon Prime Video will have plenty of new offerings for you to check out. Starting on May 1, the streaming service will be adding new movies, TV shows, and originals.
The majority of Amazon's movie releases come at the end of the month, but there is plenty to look forward to before then. Suspiria hits the service on May 3, and the remake was a bit polarizing with critics and fans. GameSpot's review by Rafael Motamayor said, "While the dance sequences will make your skin crawl, and Tilda Swinton can do no wrong, the truth is that this film is simply boring."
However, May 31 is when most of Amazon's new content drops. If you're a fan of Jason Voorhees, get ready to binge a bunch of movies. All but two films in the original franchise are coming at the end of the month. Sadly, Jason X and Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter did not make the cut, but you can watch Jason ride a boat for an hour then hang out in New York City for a few minutes in Jason Takes Manhattan. If you're more into comedies, then make sure to check out Planes, Trains & Automobiles or The 'Burbs, heading to Amazon the same day.
Also on May 31 is the release of the highly anticipated first season of Good Omens. Based on the Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman novel of the same name, the Amazon original series follows an angel and demon who have become fond of life on Earth and team up to stop the coming apocalypse. However, they've lost the Antichrist, who is supposed to bring Armageddon, so the two set out on a journey to find him.
Below, you'll find the full list for what's coming to Amazon for the month of May. If you're interested in more stuff coming from streaming services, check out Hulu's list for May.
