Hulu's original film library is smaller than some streaming competitors, partly because the platform has prioritized television. The streamer fills its film catalog through licensing deals, including content from parent company Disney, 20th Century Studios, and Searchlight Pictures.
Hulu offers horror originals like the Predator prequel Prey and the horror-comedy Fresh, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones as a woman dating someone with cannibalistic tendencies. The platform's Huluween celebration pairs seasonal classics such as Hocus Pocus, Scream, and Edward Scissorhands with newer releases including Hereditary, Midsommar, and The Substance.
The platform's original films include Fire Island, a queer retelling of Pride and Prejudice set among friends vacationing on New York's Fire Island, featuring Joel Kim Booster and Bowen Yang. Good Luck To You, Leo Grande stars Emma Thompson as a retired teacher who hires a young sex worker, played by Daryl McCormack, to explore physical intimacy. Filmmaker Bing Liu's Oscar-nominated documentary Cameraperson follows three young men growing up in Rockford, Illinois, connected by skateboarding.
Palm Springs features Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti as wedding guests trapped in a time loop. The coming-of-age comedy Sunny follows an Indian teenager, played by Kuhoo Verma, on a road trip across South Dakota.
Predator: The Anime Chronicles is an R-rated animated anthology exploring the Yautja aliens across three historical settings. Prey is set in 1719 on the Great Plains, following Amber Midthunder as Naru, a young Comanche warrior who hunts the alien threat.
