October brings the Halloween zest and is a great time for Halloween themed movies to release. But this year global pandemic has forced everyone to stay home and not interact in public places, especially if you are in a contaminant zone, which means you cannot go out for movies. Although most theatres are closed, some films will be available in selected theatres and under proper security to ensure there is no threat of virus spreading.
Apart from theatres, online video-on-demand services are also welcoming Halloween movies and shows in style. Netflix is ready for Halloween with Hubie Halloween, a horror-comedy film.
