BONES AND ALL, THE BAY and so many SHARKNADOS are coming your way for free.
July is a bonanza of free horror movie streaming, especially if you love movies about sharks, the cheesier, the better. You have so many options and some really great and underappreciated films that are available to you for free, which is a great way to chill out in the summer heat.
Pluto TV, the “stream now, pay never” service, has another motto for summer 2025. Boom, free movies. Not only does Pluto TV have the hottest horror film on streaming, 28 Days Later, but they also have the premiere of a Jersey Shore alum's debut feature film, Devon. It's an excellent time to explore this found footage film from the mind of a reality TV star.
Final Destination fans can watch the films in the series to their heart's content on Tubi this month and catch a great but sadly underseen classic of romantic horror from Luca Guadagnino. Romance in scary movies is a wonderful thing, and the streamer also has hungry dinos, evil witches, and cannibals in the desert to put fear into your living room.
Vizio has really gone all out this month. Not only do they have their usual roster of new films, they also have 27 of the wildest and cheesiest shark films ever to escape from various bodies of water to thrill you and make you laugh with fright. No seriously, they have so many shark movies, you might not be able to watch them all, even in a month.
