It's Labor Day weekend, which means the most you should be laboring is lifting up your remote over the next three days.

There's certainly a nice crop of streaming options for film lovers of all tastes coming from Netflix, Peacock, Max, and others. You've got recent theatrical releases, like Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt channeling a 1980s TV show and Kevin Costner's ambitious Western epic, but also original fare like a Lee Daniels possession thriller and an ultra-modern take on the R-rated high school comedy.

Here are 10 notable new movies you can stream right now:

'Daughters'

An incarcerated dad gives his kid a big hug at a prisoner father-daughter dance in the documentary "Daughters."

This moving documentary focuses on a father/daughter program for incarcerated men where dads get to go to a dance with their little girls. The film follows inmates and kids in the lead-up to the big day and the emotions involved, from anger and sadness to sheer tearjerking happiness as men get to hug their children, some for the first time.

'The Deliverance'

Ebony (Andra Day) worries about her troubled youngest son Andre (Anthony B. Jenkins) in "The Deliverance."

Exorcism movie nerds will find a bunch of familiar aspects to Lee Daniels' possession thriller, inspired by an eerie true story, but who knew the man behind "Precious" and "Empire" is a pretty crafty horror guy? He weaves some freaky imagery in this story of a Black mom (Andra Day) facing personal demons and an evil spirit that's infecting her kids.

'The Fall Guy'

Exes Colt (Ryan Gosling) and Jody (Emily Blunt) reconnect on a film set in the romantic action comedy "The Fall Guy," based on the 1980s Lee Majors TV show.

He's not just Ken, he's also one heck of a stuntman. Ryan Gosling's embattled Colt Seavers falls 12 stories, gets thrown through glass, has to solve a mystery and reconnect with his filmmaking ex (Emily Blunt) under the most gonzo circumstances in this action-packed, breezily delightful reimagining of the '80s Lee Majors TV series.

Where to watch:Peacock

'Hell Hole'

A parasite gets loose and starts taking over members of a fracking operation in the horror movie "Hell Hole."

The filmmakers behind the amazing coming-of-age horror "Hellbender" unleash this throwback to the goofy body-snatching B-movies of yesteryear. Members of an American-led fracking crew unearth a centuries-old French soldier and, with him, a parasitic tentacled monster that causes chaos.

'Horizon: An American Saga – Part 1'

Kevin Costner (right, with Jamie Campbell Bower) co-writes, directs and stars as a drifter seeking a home in the two-part Western epic "Horizon: An American Saga."

Between "Dances With Wolves" and "Yellowstone," you can't knock Costner's Western bona fides. And the star/director's "Horizon" is certainly sprawling (and looks plenty scenic), though there are way too many plots and characters in this three-hour, perfect-for-streaming epic about westward expansion during the Civil War.

Where to watch: Max

'Incoming'

Mason Thames (center) is a high school freshman who lives large at his first party in the raunchy teen comedy "Incoming."

Do underage drinking and diarrhea explosions sound like a good time? If so, party on with this Gen Z take on the raunchy high school comedy. "The Black Phone" star Mason Thames leads a crew of fresh faces in the tale of freshman friends who attend their first booze-filled shindig and aren't at all prepared for the madness that unfolds.

Where to watch: Netflix

'The Killer'

Nathalie Emmanuel plays an international assassin and Omar Sy is a French cop in "The Killer," director John Woo's remake of his iconic 1989 action film.

A remake of John Woo's '80s Hong Kong action classic? Blasphemy! Oh, wait, it's Woo doing it? Well, let the man cook. The redo gender-flips its main character and changes the setting to Paris. While it doesn't hit quite the same, it's not too shabby, either, with Nathalie Emmanuel as an assassin on the run and Omar Sy as a cop who's doggedly in pursuit.

Where to watch: Peacock

'Kinds of Kindness'

Margaret Qualley (left), Jesse Plemons and Willem Dafoe play a variety of roles in the anthology movie "Kinds of Kindness."

Yorgos Lanthimos' weirdly watchable triptych puts the spotlight on Jesse Plemons and Emma Stone. They play cult members seeking a messianic woman in one tale, while others feature Plemons as a businessman with an oddly demanding boss (Willem Dafoe) and a cop who doesn’t recognize his wife (Stone) after a near-death experience.

Where to watch: Hulu

'The Supremes at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat'

Sanaa Lathan (far left), Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor and Uzo Aduba play a trio of friends who've navigated decades of troubles together but have that bond tested in the drama "The Supremes at Earl's All You Can Eat."

This heartwarming drama follows three best friends, first as youngsters in the 1960s and later on in the '90s (when they're played by Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Sanaa Lathan and the always fabulous Uzo Aduba) as they navigate ups and downs in their personal lives. It mostly works as feel-good fare, though there's not nearly enough of the three leads together.

Where to watch: Hulu

'The Watchers'

Mina (Dakota Fanning, center) ventures into woods and finds her way in with a group of strangers (Oliver Finnegan, Olwen Fouéré and Georgina Campbell) watched nightly by odd forest creatures in "The Watchers."

Atmospheric horror is in the Shyamalan filmmaking genes, apparently, and in her directorial debut, Ishana Night Shyamalan takes after her dad, M. Night. She tosses in some intriguing folklore and fantasy in a thriller about a young woman (Dakota Fanning) taken in by a group of strangers who are being watched by mysterious forest inhabitants.
