Each month, several films and TV shows are added to Amazon’s library. Here are our top picks for what's worth streaming this December. For more streaming guides and Amazon Prime picks, stay tuned to The Cinema Group.

This Month’s Highlights

A Quiet Place: Day One

The Quiet Place franchise continues to expand, and this time we’re taken back to where it all began. A Quiet Place: Day One, directed by Pig writer-director Michael Sarnoski, takes audiences back to the terrifying start of the invasion, with alien monsters who hunt their prey using sound. This prequel offers an intimate look at how the world first began to fall apart in the face of these eerie, unstoppable creatures. The film introduces us to new characters played by Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn, and as expected, the journey is tense, nail-biting, and beautifully shot. The combination of Sarnoski’s storytelling talent and the compelling performances of Nyong’o and Quinn ensures that Day One is not just a blockbuster but an emotional rollercoaster. If you’ve ever wondered what those early days looked like before the Abbott family’s ordeal, this film provides the answers—and does so with style. Don't miss it when it hits Prime on December 31.

Beau Is Afraid

If you're looking for something surreal and thought-provoking, Beau Is Afraid, arriving on December 13, is a must-watch. Directed by Ari Aster, this dark comedy-drama stars Joaquin Phoenix as Beau, a paranoid man who embarks on a surreal journey to get back home to his mother. Aster, known for Midsommar and Hereditary, once again brings his unique storytelling vision, blending dark humor with unsettling twists that leave audiences questioning the boundaries of reality. Phoenix delivers a standout performance, capturing the nuance of Beau’s emotional fragility in a way that only he can. This movie is not for the faint of heart, but if you love psychological depth mixed with surrealism, it will be worth your while.

Knives Out

Coming to Prime on December 11, Knives Out is a brilliant modern twist on the classic whodunit. Directed by Rian Johnson, this mystery film features a star-studded ensemble, including Daniel Craig, Chris Evans, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Christopher Plummer. The plot revolves around the mysterious death of a wealthy crime novelist, and Detective Benoit Blanc (Craig) is brought in to solve the case. With its sharp writing, witty humor, and endless twists and turns, Knives Out is not just a mystery but an entertaining commentary on family dynamics and greed. This is the perfect film to get cozy with during the holidays, especially if you're a fan of Agatha Christie-style mysteries.
