September premieres on Sky Cinema
All the best new premieres to watch on Sky Cinema this month, including Scream VI and Spin Me Round
By Simon Ward, Content Director
We might be a little way off celebrating Halloween, but one of this year’s biggest horror films (plus a few others as well) drops a month early on Sky Cinema this September. Perfect for those who observe the holiday of scares all year round.
But it’s not just frights on Sky Cinema. There’s something for everyone, including the story of a groundbreaking conductor, a fight for survival on a prehistoric Earth and probably one of the best casting decisions in recent memory as Alison Brie teams up with Aubrey Plaza.
Don’t forget, you can also watch hundreds of Sky Cinema titles on up to five devices with the awesome Virgin TV Go app at no extra cost to Sky Cinema subscribers. It’s the perfect way to take a bit of movie magic with you. Find out more about the Virgin TV Go app here.
Read on to find out what’s new on Sky Cinema in September.
TÁR
Available from Friday 1 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15
Cate Blanchett’s movies make you stand up and take notice – across her career, she has rarely put a foot wrong, both in her performance and her choice of projects. This is another one to add to Blanchett’s treasure trove as she plays Lydia Tár, widely considered one of the greatest living composers/conductors and the first-ever female chief conductor of a major German orchestra. But despite fame and acclaim, her life begins to unravel at the height of her career.
Accident Man: Hitman’s Holiday
Available from Saturday 2 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15
An action movie that doesn’t take itself too seriously in the vein of Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels and The Hitman's Bodyguard. Mike Fallan (Scott Adkins) is back as the tough hitman and the titular “Accident Man”, who makes his hits look like accidents or suicide. In this sequel, he must beat the top assassins in the world (including the most fearsome clown since Pennywise) to protect the ungrateful son of a mafia boss and save the life of his only friend.
Sharp Stick
Available from Saturday 2 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 18
Lena Dunham created the era-defining TV series Girls and became “a voice of a generation”. In the film world, she broke through with 2010’s Tiny Furniture and recently returned to directing with last year’s Catherine Called Birdy and this drama that tackles many of the recurring themes that have become Dunham’s signature over the years. When Sarah Jo (an incredible central performance by Kristine Froseth) begins an affair with her older married employer, she embarks on an education into sexuality, loss and power.
Scream VI
Available from Friday 8 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 18
The iconic series returns as it blends the old with the new as the four Woodsboro survivors try to leave their past behind for a fresh start in New York City. But not all dreams are made in this particular concrete jungle. If the sight of returning Scream legends like Courteney Cox makes you think you know what you’re getting, don’t get too comfortable because this is unlike any other Ghostface we’ve seen before. Melissa Barrera and Jenna Ortega also star.
80 For Brady
Available from Saturday 9 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 12
If you loved Book Club, then you’ll love 80 For Brady. Not only does it similarly bring together four legends of the screen as its leads (Lily Tomlin, Jane Fonda, Rita Moreno and Sally Field), but Fonda also stars in both. Inspired by the true story of a real-life group of New England Patriots fans known as the Over 80s for Brady Club (as in NFL quarterback Tom Brady), this tells the story of their journey to watch their hero play in the Super Bowl. Brady, as you’d expect, also appears.
Something In The Dirt
Available from Sunday 10 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15
Directing duo Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead are making a name for themselves as purveyors of entertaining and original horror. This fifth feature film by the pair (in which they also star) pitches itself as a comedy-horror. When two neighbours witness a supernatural event in their Los Angeles building, they realise that documenting the paranormal might lead to fame and fortune. But when you start investigating the shadows, the shadows might bite back…
Knock At The Cabin
Available from Friday 15 August in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15
From visionary filmmaker M Night Shyamalan and starring Dave Bautista, Jonathan Groff, Ben Aldridge and Rupert Grint, this psychological horror sees a family holiday interrupted by four armed strangers demanding an unthinkable sacrifice to avert the forthcoming apocalypse. As you’d expect from the director of Signs and The Sixth Sense, it’s a film that keeps you constantly on your toes. Doubt everything. Trust no one. And, if you can, try to go into this one cold.
All My Puny Sorrows
Available from Saturday 16 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15
Based on the international bestselling novel by Miriam Toews, this heart-wrenching story is about two loving sisters: one a gifted pianist (Sarah Gadon) obsessed with ending her life, the other a struggling writer (Alison Pill) who, in wrestling with this decision, makes profound discoveries about herself. With yet another impressive performance from Alison Pill, the movie still manages moments of unexpected humour, even set against such difficult subject matter.
Spin Me Round
Available from Sunday 17 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 18
Alison Brie and Aubrey Plaza have long been doing outstanding work, so pairing them together feels like one of those rare Hollywood lightbulb moments. When a restaurant manager (Brie) joins an Italian training programme, she has an image of flying away and falling in love, like a main character in a Nancy Meyers movie. Instead, it turns out to be more dangerous than she thought. Plaza channels some big April Ludgate energy here.
God Is A Bullet
Available from Friday 22 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert TBA
A film from the Taken school of taking matters into your own hands to rescue your kidnapped daughter. Detective Bob Hightower (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) takes matters into his own hands as he tries to infiltrate an evil cult to save his kidnapped daughter and avenge the murder of his wife. Maika Monroe, Jamie Foxx and January Jones also star.
Marcel The Shell With Shoes On
Available from Saturday 23 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert PG
Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at this year’s ceremony, this mixes so many things together - stop-motion, live action, mockumentary - to produce this year’s most unique and heartwarming movie. A one-inch-tall shell named Marcel is given hope of reuniting with his long-lost family when he's discovered by an Airbnb guest. Poignant and surprisingly profound, you will be floored by the depth of feelings you’ll soon have for a shell.
Swallowed
Available from Sunday 24 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 18
“Not for the squeamish” declares one review for Swallowed, in which two friends must survive a nightmarish ordeal of drugs, bugs and body horror after a drug run goes bad. It’s fair to say that “squeamish” might be the understatement of the year. A very intense indie film full of tension that persists until the final frame, with a cast including Jena Malone, Cooper Koch and Mark Patton giving absolutely everything.
65
Available from Friday 29 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 12
If your elevator pitch is “Adam Driver fights dinosaurs” then our only follow-ups are “how many?” and “take my money”. This sci-fi survival thriller stars Driver (Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens) as an astronaut who crash-lands on a prehistoric Earth 65 million years ago. As the famous dino franchise with Jeff Goldblum has taught us, there were quite a few chunky fellas roaming our planet back then. This hugely fun big-budget B-movie teams Driver up with Ariana Greenblatt (Love And Monsters) – so can these two survivors survive?
Assassin Club
Available from Saturday 30 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15
An elite assassin is given his final contract and must kill seven people around the world, only to discover the targets are equally skilled assassins hired to kill him. His only shot to survive is to uncover the mastermind behind the deadly plot. Henry Golding makes for an entertaining assassin at the heart of all the mayhem. Sam Neill also stars.
