A killer blend of horror, humour and high fashion, Scream Queens is a camp cult classic that’s as outrageous as it is addictive. Streaming on Prime Video, the series from Glee and American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy stars Emma Roberts, Lea Michele and Jamie Lee Curtis in a wickedly funny slasher satire set on a college campus plagued by a masked murderer.
Packed with razor-sharp one-liners, over-the-top drama and a pitch-perfect mix of scares and style, Scream Queens is a bloody good time from start to finish. Just to be clear, this is not to be confused with the mid-2000s reality show Scream Queens.
Prime Video also features its latest Harlan Coben offering with Lazarus, led by Sam Claflin as Joel Lazarus, who is delivered the shock news of his father's suicide and is left to piece together the events leading up to his father's death.
When he sets foot in his father's office though, he starts to embody Dr L (Bill Nighy) himself, leading him to uncover more about not only his father, but his mix of clients.
If thrillers aren't up your street, then some other strong Prime Video contenders include Hotel Costiera, which boasts a beautiful Mediterranean setting, or The Summer I Turned Pretty, which unfolds against the backdrop of Wilmington, North Carolina (aka Cousins Beach).
Alternatively, if you're looking for something with a bit of edge – it is spooky season, after all – you can find some reliable thrills in no-holds-barred The Boys spin-off Gen V, which just returned for season 2, or unpredictable psychological thriller The Girlfriend.
The latter show pits Robin Wright (House of Cards) against Olivia Cooke (House of the Dragon), as a worried mother attempts to unravel the apparent lies of her son's mysterious new partner.
