As the UK continues to navigate its way through the coronavirus pandemic, Amazon Prime Video’s sizeable library of movies and TV shows is a useful resource for keeping entertained indoors. But before you start bingeing through the line-up, don’t miss out on catching up with some modern gems before their rights expire.

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

Color Out of Space – 27th October

At long last, a screen adaptation of Lovecraft’s work that totally bangs.

Practical Magic – 27th October

Sally (Sandra Bullock) and Gillian Owens (Nicole Kidman), born into a magical family, have mostly avoided witchcraft themselves. But when Gillian’s vicious boyfriend, Jimmy Angelov (Goran Visnjic), dies unexpectedly, the Owens sisters give themselves a crash course in hard magic.

Pride – 1st November

This sincere tale of acceptance, support and celebration is an irresistible, feel-good gem.

The Twilight Saga – 2nd November

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are fantastic in these entertaining, if uneven, adaptations of the vampire novels.

You Were Never Really Here – 2nd November

One of the most hellacious anti-genre genre flicks in quite some time.

The Impossible – 3rd November

Juan Antonio Bayona’s retelling of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami is a gruelling, harrowing, moving experience.

Magic Mike – 4th November

Set in the world of male strippers, Magic Mike is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Channing Tatum in a story inspired by his real life. Mike spends his days roofing houses and designing furniture at his Tampa beach condo. But at night…he’s just magic as the hot headliner in an all-male revue. Just as another summer opens up to a world of fun, Mike begins falling for his new protégé’s captivating sister. Despite the mutual attraction, Mike might miss his chance when his lifestyle gets in the way.

A Bigger Splash – 10th November

A steamy thriller driven by four superb performances, A Bigger Splash is cinema to soak up and savour.

Now You See Me – 11th November

This magical thriller is hugely entertaining to watch as long as you don’t look too closely.

Non-Stop – 13th November

Liam Neeson on a plane? Jaume Collet-Serra fuels this improbable thriller with enough suspense for a fun ride.

Zombieland – 14th November

A buddy movie with zombies, Zombieland is laugh-out-loud stuff.

Clueless – 14th November

Perfectly updating Jane Austen for 1990s Beverly Hills, Clueless is an evergreen adaptation.

Pokemon Detective Pikachu – 16th November

Ryan Reynolds’ energetic vocals and a witty script make this unlikely Pokémon movie a surprising delight.

Spotlight – 16th November

This retelling of the Boston Globe’s 2011 investigation into abuse in the Catholic Church is urgent, gripping filmmaking.

Sense and Sensibility – 16th November

Ang Lee’s take on Sense and Sensibility features a stellar script from Emma Thompson, who also joins an impressive cast that includes Kate Winslet, Tom Wilinson, Hugh Grant and – most importantly – Alan Rickman in a hat as Colonel Brandon.

Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa – 17th November

If Alan Partridge directed a movie about himself, this would be it.

High-Rise – 20th November

A stunning state of the disunion address that only feels more relevant the more time passes.
