Fall is finally here! As such, it’s a great time to slow things down and enjoy some entertainment. In this post, we’ll give you the best fall movies, shows, and even documentaries that are perfect for the season.

Best Fall Movies and Shows

Now that there are so many streaming services, it can be a little daunting to find exactly the show you want to watch. Here’s our guide to some of the best shows and movies. In addition, we’ll tell you which streaming service you can find them on.

1. Eternals

This is one of the best fall movies for those who love superheroes. It’s a relatively new concept for Marvel movies, and the cast list is full of A-list actors ready to take the franchise to the next level.

Keep an eye on Disney+ in case they decide that they want to continue dual releases.

2. Dune

This cinematic masterpiece is, as most know, based on the massive novel by Frank Herbert. Sci-Fi enthusiasts know it better than most. Yet, the Dune movie—with its top-tier cast—brings in new fans who may not have been invested in previous versions of the story.

This is not a movie you want to miss. So, watch it at home with HBO Max.

3. Only Murders in the Building

If you’re a fan of the iconic duo Steve Martin and Martin Short, this should definitely go in your to-watch pile! The legendary pair have teamed up once again, and this time, they’re mixing things up with young talent—Selena Gomez. If you’re like everyone else and enjoy listening to true-crime podcasts, this is your show.

These two comedy legends have given us a new perspective on the podcast phenomenon with this series on Hulu. For those who love podcasts, this show will be an absolute treat to watch as the residents get in on the hype by investigating a murder that happens in their own building.

4. What We Do in the Shadows

Also on Hulu, What We Do in the Shadows is a hilarious take on a mockumentary, and definitely one of the best fall shows. After all, this show is the brainchild of Taika Waititi and Jemaine Clement and is inspired by their 2014 movie of the same name.

The TV show follows three vampires and their familiar as they go about daily life on Staten Island. To get access, stream the show on Hulu.

5. Val 

In real life, there’s hardly a living soul who doesn’t know who Val Kilmer is. He used to be the heartthrob, the adventurer, and the bad boy with universal good looks. In fact, he could be found in quite a few blockbuster movies back in the day, until one day he faded from public view.

This documentary on Prime Video explores Kilmer’s roles, his life, and even some of his regrets. Don’t miss Val!

5. The Movies That Made Us

If you enjoy all movies from the classics to the modern releases, this one’s for you. After all, who doesn’t enjoy going down memory lane and reliving some of the most iconic movies that made up our childhoods? Soundtracks, actors, and movie themes have a great impact on who we are now, in the past, and sometimes even in the future.

The makers of The Movies That Made Us knew this about the power of movies. As such, they have carefully curated a number of episodes that lovingly explore these themes. Don’t miss out on this journey through cinema on Netflix!
