Some Of The Best A24 Movies Are Streaming For Free

The 2022 film X is the first film in writer-director Ti West’s X horror trilogy. Mia Goth stars as an aspiring adult film star, Maxine, who is making her first film in a rented house in a rural Texas town. Goth also plays the house’s owner, an old woman named Pearl who develops a violent fixation on the group and goes on a rampage, intent on killing off everyone in the young, virile crew. Goth and West subsequently paired up for two more films, Pearl and MaXXXine, based around the same characters. Both X and Pearl are available to stream on Kanopy, Tubi and Plex. (MaXXXine is available on HBO Max.)

In Problemista, Julio Torres stars as an aspiring toy designer from El Salvador who now lives in New York and has big dreams of being a toy designer. When he can’t find a job in his chosen field, he secures work as an assistant to an erratic and eccentric art critic, played by Tilda Swinton. Torres also wrote and directed the film which co-stars Greta Lee, RZA and Isabella Rosselini. The film is currently available on Kanopy, Plex and Tubi.

Ari Aster’s directorial debut, Hereditary, is a psychological horror about a grieving family whose lives are plagued by horrific supernatural occurances after the death of their grandmother. The film stars Toni Collette, Gabriel Byrne, Ann Dowd and Alex Wolff.

Jonathan Demme’s concert film Stop Making Sense is a chronicle of the Talking Heads at the height of their fame. The film was originally released in 1984 but underwent a restoration for its 40th anniversary and was re-released by A24 in 2024. It’s available now on Kanopy, Plex and Tubi. 

In the psychological horror It Comes At Night, a contagious disease has decimated the global population, forcing a family (Joel Edgerton, Carmen Ejogo and Kelvin Harrison, Jr.) to hide out deep in the woods to avoid contracting the disease. When another family happens upon their home, they’re taken in citing safety in numbers, but soon mistrust grows between them, resulting in paranoia and violence.

Lest you think A24 only produced grim horror and psychological thrillers, Dicks: The Musical is a good reminder that they’re a great source for offbeat comedy, too. The 2023 movie musical is directed by former Seinfeld writer and director Larry Charles and stars Nathan Lane as Megan Mullally as estranged exes whose sons were raised apart, but meet later as adults and realize they’re identical twins. The twins try to reunite their divorced parents, Parent Trap-style, and while that doesn’t quite work, they have a wild adventure (in a sewer) where they realize that their own relationship is deeper than they thought. The cast also includes Megan Thee Stallion, Bowen Yang, Nick Offerman and Josh Sharp.
