What premium titles are available to watch on Vudu this week?
Love reigns supreme, thanks to Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sam Heughan in Love Again. They 'meet cute,' bonding over text messages intended for a lost love that end up getting sent to a journalist, who is enchanted by the charming messages. From there, romance blossoms.
In What's Love Got To Do With It?, a single filmmaker who is addicted to dating apps (Lily James) documents a friend (Shazad Latif) as he journeys to meet his arranged bride in Pakistan. Along the way, she begins to question her own path to romantic happiness in the beguiling comedy.
The strained relationship between sisters Lily Sullivan and Alyssa Sutherland is threatened soon after they reunite in horror thriller Evil Dead Rise. Attacked by very nasty demons, they fight for their lives as blood flows, early, often and in great quantities.
Blood also flows freely in Sisu, but rather than supernatural evil, the culprit is a group of Nazis in the dying days of World War II, who steal the gold mined by a lone prospector in northern Finland. Battling incredible odds, not to mention the freezing-cold temperatures, the prospector must lay waste to the Nazis.
