Happy viewing.

HULU: – “Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse”

“Scouts Guide” is not your average zombie flick. This new spin on the comedic horror zombie film genre is unexpectedly good and entertaining—don’t miss it.

NETFLIX: – “SPF-18”

Are you California Dreaming? If you’re not, this film just may change that. SPF-18 is a bit unrealistic, but it’s charming and fun with a modern fairytale vibe. Taking place in Malibu, Calif., the scenery is great and may have you longing for adventure on the coast. It has decent music and a bit of nostalgia for films from the 1980s. “SPF-18” is light and easy entertainment as opposed to intense and harrowing and definitely worth checking out.

AMAZON PRIME: – “Swiss Army Man”

Paul Dano and Daniel Radcliffe are wickedly hilarious in this twisted-yet-inspirational, thought-provoking dark comedy about a man stranded on a desert island.
