Amazon Prime Video is stacking its October lineup with a mix of original films, true crime deep dives, gripping thrillers, and returning fan favorites. From adrenaline-fueled action to chilling psychological dramas, there’s something new dropping nearly every week to carry viewers through the heart of fall.
The month kicks off on October 1 with Play Dirty, a high-octane action-thriller that sets the tone for the season. True crime fans won’t have to wait long—Killer In The Family (Oct. 6) and Raoul Moat: Inside the Mind of a Killer (Oct. 12) offer unsettling looks into crimes that gripped headlines.

Sports and entertainment buffs get their fix with Saquon (Oct. 9), a documentary chronicling the life of star running back Saquon Barkley, and John Candy: I Like Me (Oct. 10), which celebrates the legacy of the late comedy legend.
For fans of international storytelling, Our Fault (Culpa Nuestra) debuts Oct. 16, delivering a passionate Spanish romance-drama. Just one day later, The Chosen Adventures launches, adding fantasy flavor to the lineup.
Perhaps the most buzzed-about release is Harlan Coben’s Lazarus (Oct. 22), a dark and suspenseful original series expected to draw thriller fans. October closes strong with Eden (Oct. 24), Hedda (Oct. 29), and the highly anticipated return of Hazbin Hotel for its second season on Oct. 29. The cult-hit animated series promises more devilish humor, bold visuals, and musical chaos.
With such a wide range—crime, sports, fantasy, and animation—Prime Video’s October schedule makes it easy to plan your fall watchlist. Whether you’re in the mood for real-life drama or surreal escapism, this month’s slate has you covered.
