One of the benefits of autumn is that the cold weather forces you inside to watch more movies. Fortunately for everyone, Prime Video has plenty of them, including several underrated gems that are worth watching this weekend. Watch With Us' top choice is The Ballad of Wallis Island, a quiet drama that's one of 2025's best movies so far. Other worthy films include the Timothée Chalamet-led film Beautiful Boy and the horror comedy Tremors, which is perfect for fans of Kevin Bacon and the 1975 film Jaws. 'The Ballad of Wallis Island' (2025) Charles Heath (Tim Key) has won the lottery twice, so he can buy whatever he wants. A devoted fan of the defunct indie-folk duo McGwyer Mortimer, he hires them both to play a private concert for him on the secluded Wallis Island. But Herb McGwyer (Tom Basden) no longer plays folk, and he is weary of reuniting with Nell Mortimer (Carey Mulligan), who was once his lover. They both need the cash, though, so they accept - but can they put their messy past and present grievances behind them long enough to perform for Charles, who has his own personal problems to deal with? 7 New Movies to Watch This Weekend on Netflix, Prime Video and More (October 17-19) Quiet and unassuming, The Ballad of Wallis Island is an absorbing drama that deals with how people recover - or don't - from a past relationship. Charles and Nell have moved on, but their reunion brings up old resentments they both thought were dead and buried. For Charles, his grief over his wife's passing still rules his life, even though he tries to use his new wealth to bury his pain. Wallis Island's three leads are all messed up in the best way possible, and the film's soundtrack has an appropriate folk-rock vibe that will make you want to walk in the woods and meditate. The Ballad of Wallis Island is streaming on Prime Video. 'Tremors' (1990) Something is terrorizing the small town of Perfection, Nevada. After handymen Val (Kevin Bacon) and Earl (Fred Ward) discover the severed head of a town citizen, they initially think there's a serial killer on the loose. But soon they encounter the real culprits - four giant, underground worms that want to consume every animal and human in their path. With local scientist Rhonda (Finn Carter), the trio must warn everyone else nearby and somehow destroy these killer creatures before it's too late. Fun and unexpectedly tense, Tremors packs as many laughs as it does gore. Like Jaws, it focuses on three working-class heroes who have to think quickly on their feet if they want to survive. Bacon and Ward are terrific as the in-over-their-heads buddies who are surprisingly resourceful, and the film's supporting cast is stacked with actors you'd least expect in a movie like this, like Family Ties dad Michael Gross and country star Reba McEntire as a fun-loving, gun-toting married couple. The movie spawned a lot of inferior sequels, but it's best you avoid all of them and stick with the original. Tremors is streaming on Prime Video. 'Beautiful Boy' (2018) Writer David Scheff (Steve Carell) has it all - a nice gig at The New York Times, a loving wife and a beautiful family. But when his eldest son, Nic (Timothée Chalamet), starts missing school and acting out, he's forced to deal with a problem that many families experience - drug addiction. Nic is a meth and heroin addict, and his need for drugs almost tears his family apart. David does the best he can by forcing his son into numerous rehab programs, but is it enough to save someone who doesn't want to be saved? 5 Best Drama Movies to Watch in October, Ranked by Rotten Tomatoes Score Based on Schiff's autobiographical book of the same name, Beautiful Boy is an exacting and often painful look at how drug addiction takes its toll on everyone involved. The film shows that there's no easy path to rehabilitation; with Nic, there are periods of sobriety and relapses that make David wonder if his addiction will only stop with his son's death. Carrell and Chalamet give award-worthy performances as a father and son who clearly love each other, but are no match for just how powerful opioids can be. Beautiful Boy is streaming on Prime Video.
