Potential summer breakout hits 'Bullet Train,' 'Sandman,' 'Prey' and more!

We take a while to work up to it, but the consensus for this coming week/end of streaming and screening is loaded with lots of potential surprise breakouts. The big fish in the pond is Bullet Train, the assassin action comedy starring Brad Pitt and a stacked supporting cast, but don't discount the long awaited Sandman series (based on Neil Gaiman's comic series) that's hitting Netflix on Friday, the Predator prequel Prey hitting HULU (and its alternate audio dun entirely in Comanche), the LGBTQ+ conversion camp slasher They/Them on Peacock that connects Kevin Bacon back to his horror roots, and honestly there are too many other great options to rattle off here so you'll just have to listen in to get the lowdown on the highlights.
