While Hulu subscribers might be relieved to hear that only three titles are leaving the streamer on August 31st, that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few gems worth catching before they disappear. This August, Hulu bid farewell to the 2006 remake of “The Omen,” a chilling tale of a family who suspects their adopted son might be the Antichrist. The stylish thriller “High-Rise” also departs, exploring a society confined within a self-sufficient, luxurious high-rise building that descends into chaos. Action fans will miss “The Enforcer,” starring Antonio Banderas as a reluctant enforcer who finds himself caught in a dangerous world of crime and betrayal. However, don’t fret as Hulu is offering a final chance to catch two critically acclaimed films that are actually departing in mid-September. “Call Jane” takes viewers back to the 1960s and delves into the world of the Jane Collective, an underground organization providing safe and illegal abortions. This timely film, starring Sigourney Weaver and Elizabeth Banks, highlights the struggle for reproductive rights in a pre-Roe v. Wade America. Finally, get ready for a dose of laughter with “Theater Camp,” a hilarious mockumentary about a group of young actors and their efforts to keep a struggling theater camp afloat after its director falls into a coma. This comedy, featuring Amy Sedaris, Ben Platt, and Molly Gordon, is sure to provide a lighthearted and entertaining experience before it leaves Hulu’s platform.
