Patrick Melrose and more on Amazon Prime this weekend: Feb. 29-Mar. 1
By Mads Lennon
Tons of new movies and Patrick Melrose: Season 1 debut. Here’s everything you need to know about what’s on Amazon Prime this weekend, Feb. 29 to Mar. 1.
February winds to a close and March kicks things into high gear this weekend on Amazon Prime Video. Nothing new will be added to Amazon’s vast catalog on Saturday, but on Sunday, Mar. 1, the streaming service will be adding a large selection of movies.
If you’re hoping for a scary night in, Amazon Prime will start streaming the 2007 reimagining of Night of the Living Dead and The Descent. The Descent (2006) follows a group of women who seek to journey through a legendary labyrinth of caves in North Carolina. Unfortunately, they quickly realize that the caves are home to monstrous creatures, and their adventure turns into a fight for survival. The Descent is widely considered one of the best horror films ever made. The sequel, The Descent: Part 2 (2010), will also be available.

While it’s not quite as good as the original 1968 movie, Night of the Living Dead (2007) is still an exercise in fear as a group of survivors try to fight their way out of a farmhouse after being cornered by vicious zombies. Night of the Living Dead Resurrection (2017) will also stream.
