If you're looking for a satisfying horror thriller to kick off spooky season a bit early, look no further than the latest Shyamalan blockbuster The Watchers. The movie was produced by M. Night Shyamalan and written and directed by Ishana Night Shyamalan (the famous director's 25-year-old daughter) in her directorial debut.

The Watchersis "a hell of a scary good time," according to Mashable's film editor Kristy Puchko. Dakota Fanning leads a strong ensemble alongside Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouéré. And as of Aug. 30, it's officially streaming.

Here's everything you need to know about how to watch The Watchersat home — including some of the best streaming deals that might let you catch the flick for free.

What is The Watchers about?

Based on the novel of the same name written by A.M. Shine,The Watchersfollows a young artist named Mina (Fanning), whose life is derailed when she ends up stranded in a vast forest in western Ireland. When she finds shelter in a bunker alongside three strangers (played by Barbarian's Campbell, Outlander's Finnegan, and The Northman's Fouéré), she unknowingly becomes a captive performer for unseen creatures — aka the watchers. No one knows who they are, what they look like, or what they want. All that is known is they do notwant their performers breaking out.

Judging by the trailer alone, viewers are in for a spooky atmosphere and plenty of jump scares:

Is The Watchers worth watching?

The Watchersdidn't dominate at the box office, but it didn't completely bomb either, grossing just shy of $33 million globally. Against a $30 million budget, according to The Numbers, it at least broke even. Box office numbers don't always tell the whole story, though.

The film also received largely negative reviews from critics, earning a sad 32 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Mashable's own film critic, however, had mostly positive things to say about Ishana Night Shyamalan's directorial debut.

"Admittedly, the final act loses momentum in its eagerness to explain all the finer points of the movie's lore...Still, The Watchers is a sharply satisfying horror thriller thanks to a crackling cast, unnerving sound design, stomach-churning creatures, and an emotional story that offers far more than cheap thrills."

Audiences are torn, with the Rotten Tomatoes score currently hovering slightly above the 50 percent mark. In other words, you may hate it or you may love it — but it's worth watching to find out.
