In the Watch List’s never-ending quest to make streaming life easier and less costly, I introduce the concept of toggling your services on and off and then demonstrate how to do so for each of the major VOD platforms. Try it for yourself!

Paying subscribers got a midweek recommendation for this weekend’s Halloween viewing: Ken Russell’s deliriously goofy late-1980s monster movie “The Lair of the White Worm,” featuring a newly-hatched Hugh Grant and a sleekly sinister Amanda Donohoe (above.)

Some good options for the weekend, both in theaters (the ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ memory play “Aftersun,” above) and on demand (a fine Louis Armstrong documentary on Apple TV+, a woozy erotic thriller from Claire Denis on Hulu).
