Fantastic Four: First Steps, Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, and the best movies on streaming this week

The Fantastic Four: First Steps jumps from Earth 828 to Disney Plus, offering another chance to do your MCU homework ahead of Avengers: Doomsday. Meanwhile, Frankenstein movies are often Halloween fare, but Guillermo del Toro treats the story of a mad scientist building a monster as a deeply emotional Gothic fairy tale. After a limited theatrical run, Netflix releases the Creature onto streaming this weekend.
