Kidnapped: The Chloe Ayling Story

Attention, true-crime fans! This is one shocking documentary you must see to believe. Remember the Netflix documentary about the woman who was kidnapped, then set free, and no one believed her story when she returned? It happened again, this time across the pond.

Based on a true story, AMC+ Original Series Kidnapped: The Chloe Ayling Story follows the harrowing story of British model Chloe Ayling (Nadia Parkes, The Spanish Princess). Chloe thinks she’s landed a dream photo shoot in Milan, Italy, but quickly finds out she’s wrong when she’s drugged and kidnapped by a man who claims to work for a shadowy crime syndicate.

With her life on the line, she miraculously manages to escape, but she’s met with looming suspicion upon returning home. Subsequently, she becomes the target of a relentless media storm accusing her of faking her own kidnapping for fame.

Kidnapped: The Chloe Ayling Story is currently airing on AMC+, with new episodes dropping every Thursday until September 25.

True Crime Story: Smugshot (Season Two)

A SundanceTV Original Series, this can’t-look-away true crime anthology began mid-August and is wrapping up its second season in September.

True Crime Story: Smugshot spotlights privileged individuals involved in elaborate criminal behavior. Whether in pursuit of revenge or riches, status or glory, freedom or fame, each of these law-breakers clings to their entitlement despite having more to lose than to gain. These are the real-life stories of the smug people who thought they could get away with it but didn’t.

True Crime Story: Smugshot releases new episodes on Thursdays, with the Season Finale airing September 18, 2025.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon (Season 3)

The Walking Dead installments are steadily rolling out this year, and back for an epic third season is the franchise’s Dayrl Dixon chapter. The new season follows Daryl (Norman Reedus) and Carol (Melissa McBride) as they continue their journey to somehow find their way home and reunite with their loved ones.

As they struggle to find their way back, their path takes them farther astray, leading them through distant lands with ever-changing landscapes and unfamiliar conditions as they witness the various effects of the Walker apocalypse. With season three shifting to a new story in a new country—Spain, it almost makes the season a whole new show.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon premiered on September 7, 2025. New episodes will drop weekly through October 19, 2025.

Hot Milk

A Sundance Now Film, Hot Milk is also making its debut on AMC+ this month. The drama about a daughter traveling with her mother could wind up being life-changing for the daughter if she can escape her mother’s harsh demands.

Sofia (Emma Mackey, of Sex Education) and her ailing mother, Rose (Fiona Shaw, of Killing Eve), travel to the Spanish seaside town of Almería to seek the help of Dr. Gómez (Shantaram‘s Vincent Perez), an enigmatic healer who may hold the key to Rose’s mysterious illness. As long-buried tensions simmer between mother and daughter, Sofia finds herself drawn to the magnetic, free-spirited Ingrid (Vicky Krieps, of Corsage) and discovers a tantalizing reality far from her controlling mother.

Hot Milk premieres September 12, 2025, on Sundance Now and AMC+.

Ride with Norman Reedus (Season 7)

There’s no such thing as too much Norman Reedus, especially when he’s ridin’ a steel horse. The motorcycle enthusiast is back with season seven of Ride with Norman Reedus to embark on another epic road trip around the world with a new riding companion in each episode. Together, they’ll explore local culture, community, and enjoy some open road shenanigans.

Night of the Reaper

A Shudder Original Film, Night of the Reaper puts a fresh spin on the ’80s babysitter slasher movie.

In the wake of the brutal murder of a teenage babysitter, college student Deena (Jessica Clement, of Gen V) returns home and is roped into taking a last-minute babysitting gig. When the local sheriff receives a cryptic package with a piece of evidence proving the murder may not have been an isolated incident, he’s lured into a sinister scavenger hunt that sets off a game of cat-and-mouse with a dangerous thriller.

The more the clues begin to unravel, the more Deena finds herself ensnared in a nightmarish mystery that she may not survive.

Night of the Reaper premieres September 19, 2025, on Shudder and AMC+.

Chloe Ayling: My Unbelievable Kidnapping

After you finish the series adaptation of Chloe Ayling’s kidnapping, stay tuned on AMC+ for the Sundance Now true-crime documentary Chloe Ayling: My Unbelievable Kidnapping.

In her first documentary interview, Ayling revisits the story of her time in captivity as she struggles to come to terms with what took place, how the media reacted, and why so many people refused to believe her—only further deepening her trauma. The documentary also explores the case that was built against her kidnapper, his trial, and the subsequent fallout that played out in the UK press. Over the course of three episodes, in addition to hearing from Ayling herself, you’ll also hear from Italian authorities who investigated the case.

Chloe Ayling: My Unbelievable Kidnapping premieres September 25, 2025, on AMC+.

The Red King (Season Premiere)

The Red King is a British crime thriller and folk horror series set to provide a uniquely haunting viewing experience.

After reporting a fellow officer for assaulting a suspect, by-the-book police sergeant Grace (Anjli Mohindra, The Lazarus Project) is reassigned to a “punishment posting” on an isolated island. However, what begins as a punishment quickly turns into something far more sinister.

When Grace re-opens the cold case of a teenage boy who vanished without a trace one year prior, his remains mysteriously surface in a place no one expected. The deeper she digs, the faster the island’s eerie religious past begins to unravel, as do whispers of a secretive religious sect founded by an enigmatic leader with strange rituals and a string of unexplained deaths.

The Red King premieres September 25, 2025, with new episodes dropping weekly through October 23.

House On Eden

Another Shudder Original, House on Eden is a great choice for fans of the paranormal.

When paranormal investigators Kris, Celina, and their videographer Jay (Nobody Gets Out Alive‘s Hason-Christopher Myers) set out on their latest case, they expect the usual scares. However, after mysteriously being re-routed to an abandoned house deep in the woods, the crew find themselves facing a force unlike anything they’ve ever encountered.

As darkness falls and the night spirals into chaos, missing crew members and eerie phenomena hint at an ancient, malevolent presence watching their every move. What’s cool about Shudder horror flicks is that they expose you to the whole gamut of good and bad. In House on Eden, current social media sensations Kris Collins and Celina Myers star as themselves, so you know it’s going to be good.

House on Eden premieres September 26, 2025, on AMC+.

Guts & Glory (Season One)

From award-winning special effects artist and executive producer Greg Nicotero, of The Walking Dead and Creepshow, comes an unscripted Shudder Original reality show like you’ve never seen. The showrunner and host himself describes the show as if Survivor and The Blair Witch Project had a baby. Plus, it’s unscripted, so expect authentic reactions and emotions from the contestants.

Guts & Glory flips the traditional competition show script upside down and thrusts players into an immersive horror experience full of unexpected challenges. The new series blends the intensity of a horror film with the pressure of a survival game where contestants are confronted with their fears in various scenarios. Players must survive the night or be eliminated in ways they never saw coming.

The two-episode premiere of Guts & Glory airs October 14, 2025, on AMC+, with subsequent episodes premiering weekly through November 4, 2025.
