Between movie theaters, VOD, Redbox, Netflix and the rest of the streaming platforms, a lot of content has dropped this week. I went through and found some of the best options you can watch this weekend.
In Theaters

Redbox
Scoob! (Sept. 1)
Scooby and the gang are at it again in this new animated mystery that’s now out on Redbox. This is the gang’s biggest mystery to date and, while they try to solve it, they realize a lot about their beloved Scooby and his destiny.
Blood Quantum (Sept. 1)
If horror and zombies are your thing, you’ll definitely want to watch Blood Quantum this weekend. In it, a zombie virus takes over and gets rid of the population on Earth — except for the Mi’qmaq community.
VOD
Robin’s Wish (Sept. 1)
Robin Williams fans will not want to miss Robin’s Wish. It’s an intimate look at the actor and his last few days of life. The documentary was created by filmmaker Tylor Norwood.

This new biographical drama was directed by, and stars, John Leguizamo. In the movie, he’s a talented teacher who inspires his minority students to play, and win, at chess. It’s based on the 1998 Miami Jackson Senior High School chess team, according to IMDB.
