With a leading performance from Alexander Skarsgard and some epic battle sequences all throughout, this is new addition to Prime Video is an adrenaline rush not to be missed.
3. LOTR: The Rings of Power
In this exciting prequel to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy, LOTR: The Rings of Power takes you on an unpredictable journey through middle earth.

From the writers behind Westworld comes a mind-blowing new epic about a future altered by technology and one woman's discovery to an alternate reality that leads her on a wild ride. While looking to live an entirely different lifestyle, Flynne Fisher also finds herself seeing a dark future she desperately wants to avoid. With world's colliding and an out of mind experience taking her all over, Fisher searches for a secret connection. For a sci-fi fantasy that's bound to light up the big screen, The Peripheral most certainly won't disappoint and should be on your list for what to watch in October if it isn't already.
Overall, there's no shortage of killer flicks and stellar shows to check out on Prime Video this month, but these four new additions certainly take the cake and should be the talk of the network. Even in the midst of Thursday Night Football stealing all the buzz, these shows and movies will make the well-known streaming service even more worthwhile.
