What to Watch This Weekend (July 19-20): 9 Best New Movies and Shows to Stream Now (Including a '90s Revival That'll Have You Screaming!)

Over on the East Coast, it's been less summer and more rainy season — which gives us a perfect excuse to curl up indoors with a good movie or show. And trust us, once you've seen what's on our slate this week, you will too!
This weekend, July 19-20, a hit horror franchise is making a big comeback with an all-new cast of five rising stars — with the help of OGs, of course. On streaming, one of Prime Video's biggest shows is back for one last ride after last season's finale had fans feeling so passionate that the streamer had to issue a message to remind people to be kind to its cast ahead of the premiere.
Summers at Cousins Beach and a little bit of gory horror not your brand? Well, if you're searching for some real stories, look no further than the three true crime documentaries we have queued up this week that'll have you hooked.

I Know What You Did Last Summer
The original 1997 horror made stars out of its four leads: Freddie Prinze Jr., Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ryan Phillippe and Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Oopsies!
And of course, it wouldn't be the same without the original stars! Prinze and Hewitt reprise their roles, but look out for some more cameos ...

Amy Bradley Is Missing
Typical true crime documentaries tell the stories of horrific murders or disappearances, keeping the memory of the victim alive. But Amy Bradley Is Missing is different in one key way: her family thinks Amy is still alive.
In 1998, a 23-year-old Amy disappeared while on a cruise with her family, who think she was sex trafficked. Since then, there have been multiple alleged sightings of Amy in the Caribbean, prompting the Bradleys to speak out in a last-ditch effort to find their daughter.
