Audiences still love The Conjuring. Last week, The Conjuring: Last Rites opened to $84 million domestically, the third-highest opening for a horror. At this rate, Warner Bros. will greenlight the rumored Conjuring prequel sooner rather than later.
This weekend, Goodfellas is one of our picks for free movies to stream. It’s rare to get one of the greatest movies of all time at no cost. Take advantage of this opportunity before it’s too late. Keep reading for the rest of our picks for this weekend.
We also have guides to the best new movies to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best free movies, and the best movies on Amazon Prime Video.
You’ll lose count if you try to name every single movie based on a King novel. Most of these adaptations are on paid streaming services, but not Cujo, which can be found on Pluto TV. Based on the 1981 novel of the same name, Cujo features a kind St. Bernard that transforms into a ruthless killer after a bat bite.
The dog, Cujo, turns its attention toward Donna (Dee Wallace) and her son, Tad (Danny Pintauro), who are stuck inside their car in the blistering heat. Remember: it’s only a movie. 99% of dogs are lovable creatures, but Cujo represents the 1% of evil canines.
For Goodfellas to be the best movie from Martin Scorsese, it must be pretty darn special. Based on Nicholas Pileggi’s book Wiseguy, Goodfellas dramatizes the life of Henry Hill (Ray Liotta), a teenager who works his way up in the Brooklyn-based mafia.
Along with Jimmy Conway (Robert De Niro) and Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci), Henry becomes a true gangster, one with money, power, and fame. If the first half chronicles Hill’s rise, the second half depicts his disastrous fall, plagued by drugs, prison, and death.
With all due respect to 1999’s Message in a Bottle, 2002’s A Walk to Remember is the first movie that introduced most audiences to Nicholas Sparks. Set in North Carolina, rebellious teenager Landon Carter (Shane West) begins spending time with Jamie Sullivan (Mandy Moore), the local reverend’s daughter.
Jamie has one rule for Landon: don’t fall in love with her. Eventually, Landon falls for Jamie, who must reveal her secret before it’s too late. Sparks will break your heart and put it back together before the credits roll.
Stream A Walk to Remember on Tubi.
Some of the best shots in Grok Imagine’s AI-made Odyssey don’t contain actors. Ancient landscapes stretch into the distance. Close-ups of grimy hands suggest people who have touched something rougher than a keyboard. For a few seconds, the illusion holds.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.
What is AV2, and why should viewers care?
YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.
YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
