Amazon Prime Video UK in October 2020: Parasite and 1917 are streaming soon
What's new on Amazon Prime Video UK this month
Amazon Prime Video UK has revealed its new movies and TV shows coming to the service in October 2020, and the line-up includes a few really big movies from the past 12 months. Parasite, 1917 and Nicolas Cage's Color Out of Space are among the new films coming this month, while on the TV side The Walking Dead: World Beyond is streaming beginning on October 2.
The Walking Dead's latest spin-off puts more of a young adult angle on the aging franchise, and becomes the third show on the air based on the zombie-themed comic. This series, though, will end after two seasons – it's a finite story.
If you're waiting for the next episode of The Grand Tour, you'll be seeing that in either November or December as it stands. That's not on the schedule for October.
If you're in a Halloween mood, one highlight this month is the 'Resident Evil Franchise' releasing on Prime Video – presumably this means all six movies spanning 2002-2016 starring Milla Jovovich are dropping onto the service. That's one way to pass the time until Resident Evil Village gets here, anyway.
Here's what's coming up on Amazon Prime Video UK in October 2020. We've bolded out a few highlights.
