Here’s what’s new for home viewing on Video on Demand, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu and other streaming services, starting Friday.

Top streams for the week

“Toy Story 4” (2019, G, shown above) reunites the toy box gang for a road trip with new friends. Like the previous installments, it’s both funny and poignant and great for the whole family. It makes its streaming debut on Disney Plus.

Three siblings discover mysterious keys to a dark supernatural world in their ancestral home in “Locke & Key,” based on the best-selling comic book series written by Joe Hill. Ten episodes are streaming on Netflix.

Alison Brie plays an isolated, socially awkward woman whose dreams start to bleed into her reality in the psychological drama “Horse Girl” (2020, R). It comes direct to Netflix from its debut at Sundance.

Shia LaBeouf (shown above) writes and stars in “Honey Boy” (2019, R), the drama of the stormy childhood of a child actor loosely based on his own life. It’s available on Amazon Prime Video.

J.K. Simmons stars in “Counterpart: Complete Series” (2018-19, TV-MA), a political thriller that plays like a John le Carre cold war spy drama with a high-concept twist out of Philip K. Dick. It’s streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

Cult pick: “Blade Runner” (1981, R) became one of the most influential science fiction films of its time. The definitive director’s cut is streaming on Netflix.

Classic pick: Paul Newman is “Hud” (1963), a cynical, hard-drinking cowboy, in the superb adaptation of Larry McMurtry modern western that earned three Oscars. It’s available on Amazon Prime Video.

Correction: “Uncut Gems” was erroneously featured as a Netflix release last week. It is available only to international Netflix subscribers.
