Amazon Prime Video’s library of movies and TV shows is as sizeable as it is changeable, with new titles frequently dropping off as much as they arrive. Before you start bingeing through the line-up, don’t miss out on catching up with some old and new gems before their rights expire.

This is your last chance to stream the following with Amazon Prime UK:

The Cabin in the Woods – 29th August

Drew Goddard’s satire of the horror genre is an entertaining blitz of horror and laughs.

Dunkirk – 29th August

This raw, stripped-down war film is a harrowing elegy to British lives lost – and a powerful portrayal of despair in the face of hope.

Widows – 31st August

Steve McQueen’s character-driven heist grounds genre thrills with high stakes and real heft.

Charlie Says – 31st August

This well acted study of consent, complicity and compassion makes for quietly intriguing, disturbing viewing.

A Cure for Wellness – 31st August

Gore Verbinski’s slippery horror is enjoyably silly and genuinely creepy.

Hunt for the Wilderpeople – 1st September

The film follows Ricky Baker, a troublesome city kid, who winds up with a foster family in the Kiwi bush.

Tomb Raider – 1st September

Alicia Vikander makes for a likeable Lara Croft in this fun start to a promising new franchise.

Anthropoid – 1st September

A driven and subtle story of striking heroism.

About Time – 6th September

hard Curtis’ deceptively serious comedy is an honest, moving piece about family.

Zero Dark Thirty – 6th September

Kathryn Bigelow’s tense retelling of the hunt for Bin Laden is a gripping, grounded and grim piece of cinema.

The Shawshank Redemption – 9th September

Wrongly convicted, Andy Dufresne is sentenced to two life terms in Maine’s Shawshank prison. He learns how to get by in the brutal confines of prison while earning the respect of his fellow inmates, most notably lifer Red. Based on the Stephen King novella of the same name and starring Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman.
