When Will Hell Of A Summer Release On Streaming?

Based on Neon's multi-year exclusive deal with Hulu, Hell of a Summer is expected to stream on Hulu at some point later this year. Depending on the popularity and box office success of Hell of a Summer following its early April theatrical release, the film could arrive on Hulu sometime this summer, potentially in August or September 2025. Neon's highest-grossing film in North America, the Nicolas Cage horror Longlegs, took six months to go from theaters to streaming on Hulu. Hopefully, Hulu subscribers won't have to wait that long for Hell of a Summer.

When Will Hell Of A Summer Release On Digital?

Potentially By The End Of April 2025

If Hell of a Summer underperforms at the box office, the film could be made available to rent or purchase on at-home VOD by the end of April 2025. Wolfhard and company should fill some seats with fans of campy horror films and Stranger Things but the mixed reviews out of 2023's Toronto Film Festival raise early concerns about Hell of a Summer's box office numbers. Films like these are typically made on a relatively cheap budget, placing Hell of a Summer in a fairly good position to become the first unexpected box office hit of Spring 2025.
