There is a new crop of wild and wicked films among the free horror movies streaming in July. This includes the found footage mockumentary Man Finds Tape that had a buzzy debut at last year’s Tribeca Film Festival, the biblical horror film, yes, you read that correctly, The Carpenter’s Son, and the infamous sequel to the horror classic, Exorcist II: The Heretic. Man Finds Tape was on VOD for a while, but has now found its way to Tubi, where you can watch it at any time, or catch it on their streaming 24/7 horror movie channels.
The Carpenter’s Sonstars Nicolas Cage, FKA Twigs, Noah Jupe, and Souheila Yacoub, and tells a story about the childhood of Jesus as he tries to resist the power of Satan. It is a biblical story, from Egyptian writer and director Lotfy Nathan, that uses the elements of films about demonic possession, which is something that is native to its story, making Satan the source of evil and the power that the young Jesus must resist. It is streaming on Tubi.
Man Finds Tapeis the debut feature film directed by Paul Gandersman and Peter Hall, and produced by Justin Benson, Aaron Moorhead, and C. Robert Cargill, among others. It stars William Magnuson, Kelsey Pribilski, John Gholson, and Brian Villalobos, and is about a brother-sister team that investigates videos and finds a terrifying secret that has grown in the underbelly of their hometown in Texas.
Exorcist II: The Heretic, Sir John Boorman’s sequel to the William Friedkin classic, has been derided for many years as a failure, but a documentary, Boorman and the Devil, about the making of the film, hit film festivals recently. Tubi has now brought Boorman’s movie to its streaming service. It is a rare find on streaming, so this is a great opportunity to watch the film and judge for yourself.
Pluto only has one scary movie this month, but it is one of the creepiest serial killer films ever made, and that says a lot considering that the director, David Fincher, is also responsible for another revered serial killer film, Seven. The film even opens on July Fourth, 1969, as it relates the story of an obsessed political cartoonist who feels he must find the Zodiac and stop his reign of terror. Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo, and Robert Downey Jr., Anthony Edwards, Brian Cox, Elias Koteas, Donal Logue, John Carroll Lynch, Chloë Sevigny, Philip Baker Hall, and Dermot Mulroney star in Zodiac.
The film makes one of the greatest uses of a pop song in film, as it skews the Donovan song, “Hurdy Gurdy Man,” into an anthem of fear. Admittedly, the song has always been a little scary, but Fincher used it to its full potential as the “song of love” becomes the accompaniment to a serial killer’s crimes.
