WHAT WE'RE WATCHING

From horror marathons to laugh-out-loud specials — plus a brand-new Kevin Smith premiere — Pluto TV has something for every mood this October. Here’s a peek at what’s streaming free all month long. Horror & Thrills Halloween Hits are here! Pluto TV’s first-ever Halloween pop-up category is streaming free thrills and chills all October long. From The Twilight Zone and Universal Monsters to scream-worthy franchises like Scream, Paranormal Activity, and Underworld, there’s something for every ghoul and goblin. Don’t miss pop-up channels like Dark Shadows and Stingray Holidayscapes (launching 10/20), plus curated on-demand picks like Frightening Franchises and YA Horror. 👻 Available now … if you dare. Exclusive Premiere The 4:30 Movie — streaming free exclusively on Pluto TV starting October 1. Kevin Smith’s nostalgic coming-of-age comedy follows three teens sneaking into movies in the summer of ’86, with hilarious turns from Justin Long, Rosario Dawson, Jason Biggs, Ken Jeong, and more. As Smith puts it: “The 4:30 Movie is an ode to lifelong love of not just movies but movie theaters as well. Anything important I ever learned about myself wasn’t discovered in a classroom or church — I learned it in the same movie theater where we shot this homage to the 80’s. And since it’s so heavily biographical, it’s almost essentially the prequel to Clerks. I hope the Pluto peeps love it as much as I do.” Comedy Ian Lara’s MATERIAL BOY premieres free on Pluto TV’s Funny AF channel on October 10 at 7pm ET — then streams all month long, live and on-demand. Live Sports Monster Jam roars into October with live events from Arlington, Syracuse, and Houston — streaming on the Monster Jam channel. Plus, Pluto TV is streaming nine live UEFA Champions League matches all month long on the CBS Sports Golazo Network, including Villarreal vs. Juventus (Oct 1) and Bayern vs. Juventus (Oct 16).
