Movies and television shows jump fromNetflixto Max to Hulu to Paramount+ to everything in between. However, there is onestreaming service in Tubithat can take the pressure off.

Tubi’s library contains so manymovies and television showsthat it’s easy to lose track of all the programs you should watch. That’s only an issue because like other streaming services, programs move on and off Tubi all the time. That’s why you need to make sure to watch these five amazingly underrated movies as soon as possible and make sure you get them before they’re gone.

1Snowpiercer
Chris Evans is a different kind of hero
Snowpiercer
If you know Chris Evans best as Captain America, you need to give Snowpiercer a look. While he still plays the good guy here, he’s definitely a different kind of good guy. This time around, he’s leading a group of people riding around in a train that never stops, called the Snowpiercer.
Snowpiercer is humanity’s last refuge as the world suffers from a frozen apocalypse. This special train, which separates the rich from the poor, zooms around the globe, equipped with tools that allow it to bash through the snow and ice that blankets the planet.
The movie itself is an interesting approach to the study of class separation and what it might look like when all classes are forced to huddle together to survive. Survival means something different for the haves and the have-nots in this film, which also spawned a hit TV series.

2Malignant
An interesting twist on a familiar horror trope
Malignant is one of those movies that probably would have gotten more attention if it hadn’t been released when the world was still dealing with the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. While it did release in theaters, it released day and date on Max and that likely knocked down the word of mouth a little bit.
The good news is that it’s now on Tubi and you can watch this very original – and quite campy – supernatural horror movie. Malignant has the familiar trope of a killer tracking down the person they hold a grudge against, with some rather interesting twists in how the whole thing is pulled off. This movie didn’t win any major awards, but it’s a pretty decent little thriller and has an ending you won’t see coming.

3The Girl with All the Gifts
A different look at the end
The Girl with All the Gifts
The Girl with All the Gifts is a British flick that takes a different view from your standard zombie flick. In this movie, the world has ended thanks to a virus, but this particular virus behaves quite a bit differently in children. That’s only part of the story as these zombie children don’t always act like ravenous cannibals. In fact, they seem like everyday children locked away in a military installation for mysterious reasons. Right up until one of them catches the scent of fresh human meat.
Watching these adorable little children turn into feral monsters is only one of the things that makes this movie well worth your time on Tubi. Why everyone is in the installation is just part of the thing that makes the film interesting, and it’s when the main character and her favorite teacher venture outside the walls that this movie really gets going. Oh, and for an extra twist, don’t miss a cameo by Glenn Close.

4Coherence
A trippy comet tail of a movie
Movies about comets flying over the earth and creating havoc aren’t new, but there are plenty of different takes about just what happens when the phenomenon occurs. Coherence is another one of those movies that deals with something that’s pretty familiar to science-fiction fans, but with a new and original take on it.
I can’t say much about just what sets Coherence apart without spoling the plot, but I will say that the fact that the cast aren’t well-known megastars actually helps push the plot forward because it feels like this is a group of friends who didn’t now they were up for some comet craziness.

5V for Vendetta
Remember, remember the 5th of November
V for Vendetta
V for Vendetta is the biggest blockbuster on this list. Based on a graphic novel by the same name, this movie starred Hugo Weaving as the masked male protagonist named V who decided he was going to take down a fascist British government in the undefined future.
to do that, he enlists the help of a woman played by Natalie Portman who went from being part of the problem, to the person who helped see V’s mission to the very end. In today’s climate, all sorts of people are going to take all sorts of messages from the film, but the bottom line is that it’s quite entertaining. One of the most interesting aspects is that the audience never actually sees the epynonymous V’s face in the entire film.
