Some of the biggest horror releases of the month are all vying for our attention this final full week of March, including the latest from A24 and Blumhouse.
On the streaming side, Nicole Kidman channels her darkly comedic roots from the days of To Die For in a new thriller from Fresh director Mimi Cave, and John Lithgow freaks people out with a doll and a sadistic children's game in The Rule of Jenny Pen.
Below, you'll find a helpful guide highlighting all the new horror and thriller releases arriving this week and where you can watch them.
Holland (Prime Video, Mar. 27)
When Nancy Vandergroot (Nicole Kidman) suspects that her husband (Matthew Macfadyen) is leading a double life, she teams up with her colleague (Gael García Bernal) to do some investigating.

This highly-anticipated thriller starring John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush arrives on Shudder this week. Rush is a former judge, now paralyzed from a stroke and confined to a retirement home where he meets resident Dave Crealy (Lithgow)).
