From director Osgood Perkins and distributor NEON, gruesomely demented horror movie The Monkey will be making its streaming debut courtesy of Hulu next month.
The Monkey will be streaming on Hulu beginning August 7, 2025.
Based on the Stephen King short story from 1985’s Skeleton Crew, the gory horror-comedy is written and directed by Osgood Perkins (Longlegs) and produced by James Wan.
In the film, “When twin brothers find a mysterious wind-up monkey, a series of outrageous deaths tear their family apart. 25 years later, the monkey begins a new killing spree forcing the estranged brothers to confront the cursed toy.” Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, Elijah Wood, Christian Convery, Colin O’Brien, Rohan Campbell, and Sarah Levy star.
Meagan Navarro wrote in her review, “With storytelling efficiency and a playful spirit, The Monkey delivers a King adaptation like no other. Perkins pushes back against logic in favor of entertaining midnight madness, and death has never been funnier or gorier as a result.”
The Monkey scared up $68.8 million at the worldwide box office, leading to a new pact between Perkins and NEON. In addition to launching his own production banner titled Phobos, alongside Chris Ferguson, Perkins has also signed a first look deal with NEON.
