The service will also exclusively debut “Infinite,” a sci-fi action film starring Mark Wahlberg and Chiwetel Ejiofor and directed by Antoine Fuqua, on June 10; and become the streaming home for “A Quiet Place Part II” following its successful theatrical release.
Among the more popular horror titles being made available on the streaming service this week are “Body Cam,” “Saint Maud,” “Crawl,” “Child’s Play,” “Gretel & Hansel,” “Pet Sematary,” “The Prodigy,” “The Haunting,” “Paranormal Activity 3 & 4,” and “Arachnophobia.”
The Paramount+ summer slate will also include the return of the CBS Original series “Evil,” which follows the story of a woman (Katja Herbers) hired by the Catholic Church to determine if a serial killer is possessed by a demon.
