After crushing at the box office, Paramount’s killer chimp slasher Primate will stream on Amazon Prime Video this coming July 31, 2026.
In the film, Lucy’s tropical island homecoming was supposed to be beaches and best friends—not a fight for her life. When her family’s exceptionally clever chimp spirals into a savage, rabid frenzy, the night explodes into terrifying chaos. With her father away and no help coming, paradise becomes a prison as Lucy and her friends fight to survive a deadly predator they once trusted.
Fans of Jordan Peele’s Nope know just how terrifying Primate is, and having it hail from filmmaker Johannes Roberts (47 Meters Down, Strangers: Prey at Night) only made it better. In fact, Dread Central’s Matthew Jackson reviewed Primate, writing that Roberts’ “love letter to [Stephen King’s] Cujo is a blast.”
Johnny Sequoyah, Jessica Alexander, Troy Kotsur, Victoria Wyant, Gia Hunter, Benjamin Cheng, Charlie Mann, and Tienne Simon star in the film.
