Angels And Demons Streaming Australia

[Lorri Dent]

Wecome across the devil and demons in many horror films, but rarely do we have movies with angels at the heart of the story. Though there are some scintillating movies like City of Angels, Legion, Dogma, and Fallen to name a few, there are also several web series that focuses on angels. If you are over-bored with demons and the devil, here are some series and movies that show angels in a new light.

Based on the book series titled The Mortal Instruments, the series revolves around 18-year-old Clary Fray who discovers that she is a human-angel hybrid. She hails from a long line of Shadowhunters that hunt demons. Clary is then thrown into the world of werewolves, vampires, and warlocks while trying to accept her new identity and purpose in life. She joins the demon-hunting world with fellow Shadowhunters Jace, Alec, and Isabelle and drags her best friend Simon along with her.

Movies and shows are full of unlikely duos who shouldn't work together. Thelma and Louise. Murtaugh and Riggs. Tom and Jerry. One of the most classically opposed duos in creation, angels and demons, are the beloved subjects of Prime Video series "Good Omens."

The first season of "Good Omens" premiered way back in May of 2019 and, while it wrapped up the would-be apocalypse in a neat little bow, the ending did tease that we would likely see angelic Aziraphale (Michael Sheen) and demonic Crowley (David Tennant) again. Amazon finally announced a release date for "Good Omens" season 2: Friday, July 28, 2023.

"Good Omens" season two, like the first season is streaming exclusively on Prime Video. The streaming service, which offers 4K Ultra HD, High Dynamic Range (HDR) and mobile downloads for offline viewing of select content, is available in over 200 countries including the U.S. and its territories, Australia, Brazil, Canada, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Japan, India, The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Singapore, Turkey and United Arab Emirates.

Not much is known about "Good Omens" season two yet. Season one of "Good Omens" followed the plot of Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's novel "Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch." In a The Verge article this week, Amazon said that this new season "explores storylines that go beyond the original source material to illuminate the uncanny friendship between Aziraphale, a fussy angel and rare book dealer, and the fast-living demon Crowley..."

Yeon Sang-ho is building a name for himself as a creative force out of Korea, following his zombie films Train to Busan and its wacky sequel Peninsula. He directs his first television series with the supernatural thriller Hellbound, an adaptation of his webtoon Hell, which wades in the murky waters of religion and faith as creatures appear on Earth to drag people to hell after a prophecy from an angel. But Hellbound approaches the subject of sin and paying for those sins through several characters, such as a police detective and a cult leader. The special effects may be a little iffy, but the brutality and philosophy are real. -Tim Surette

This supernatural horror limited series draws heavy head-trip inspiration from two of cinema's greatest Davids, Lynch and Cronenberg. Alita: Battle Angel's Rosa Salazar stars as Lisa Nova, a mysterious young writer-director who arrives in Hollywood in the early '90s with dreams of becoming a great filmmaker. She links up with producer Lou Burke (Eric Lange), who promises her the world only to take it away when she won't sleep with him. So she turns to a bad witch named Boro (Catherine Keener) to help her punish Burke. But Lisa finds that curses have a way of quickly getting out of control. Brand New Cherry Flavor is a slick little revenge drama set in Hollywood's seedy underbelly with strong performances and some memorably gross imagery. Lisa vomiting up kittens is literally just the start of it. -Liam Mathews

For a show about young adults with special powers who go to an actual academy to hone their skills, wave your magic wand (remote control) and make The Magicians appear out of thin air (turn on Netflix). The Syfy series, based on the book series some describe as "Harry Potter for adults" and adapted for television by You's Sera Gamble, is set in a world where magic is real and those with an aptitude for it are invited to attend the mystical college Brakebills University for Magical Pedagogy. But don't expect these kids to pull never-ending handkerchiefs out of their sleeves or turn your ears into change dispensers. These students get involved in some really dark, apocalyptic arts, and the series features one of the most shocking deaths in television in the last several years.

Lucifer, which was saved by Netflix after Fox canceled it, is based on The Sandman comics. The show stars Tom Ellis as Lucifer Morningstar -- also known as the Devil -- who has traded the horrors of Hell for the lights of Los Angeles, where he runs a nightclub and also moonlights as a consultant for the LAPD. As one does. The series, which recently concluded after six devilishly entertaining seasons, deftly mixes supernatural horror with elements of the police procedural, and while it takes itself and its characters seriously, it also knows how to have fun. It's a bit like Supernatural (which is also on this list) in that way. [More shows like Lucifer]

This short-lived British horror-comedy from Misfits creator Howard Overman balances a brilliant sense of humor with fighting the supernatural to make for a quick and enjoyable binge. Crazyhead stars two young women -- Cara Theobold and Susan Wokoma as Amy and Raquel, respectively -- who become fast friends after finding themselves caught up in uniquely personal battles with demons only they can see. When a group of said demons try to bring about the end of the world, it's up to the self-trained hunters to prevent that from happening, all while trying to navigate the familiar trials of young adulthood.

A suspenseful and atmospheric thriller, Black Spot is known in France as Zone Blanche, which refers to the fact the small, isolated town at the center of the series is a cellular dead zone, but there's so much more to the mysterious town and show than that. The drama, which blends elements of the mythological with the fraught tension of crime dramas, kicks off with a prosecutor arriving in town to investigate why the murder rate is so high. What he -- and the audience -- soon find out is the forest surrounding the area is full of dark and inexplicable secrets, and as the series progresses and the head of the local police digs into both her past and the area's past, a clear-ish picture begins to take shape. What is revealed is likely crazier than anything you could possibly dream up yourself, but somehow it all works.

If you've yet to watch Supernatural, the long-running WB-turned-CW drama about Sam and Dean Winchester (Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles), two brothers who travel America in their 1967 Chevy Impala and hunt monsters and demons and pretty much anything that threatens humanity, you're in for a wild treat. Across 15 seasons, the series, which features an expansive mythology that includes heaven, hell, and everything in between, has taken its simple premise -- saving people and hunting things -- and added a great sense of humor, a classic rock soundtrack, and a willingness to take risks, and the result is a globally beloved drama that was, at times, one of the most creative series on TV. Although its roots are in horror, that aspect fades after a little while and the series becomes the story of two brothers who would do anything for each other, including selling their soul to save the other.

Featuring one of the wildest premises we've heard in some time, Netflix's Warrior Nun follows an elite and secret order of highly trained nuns known as the Order of the Cruciform Sword, which is tasked with tracking down and killing demons on Earth. Based on a series of comic books, the show stars Alba Baptista as Ava, a young woman and former quadriplegic who is given a second chance at life -- and the use of her arms and legs! -- when an angel's halo embedded in her back revives her from the dead, gifts her with special powers, and gives her the family she never had in the form of the Order. The series, which features many parallels with Buffy the Vampire Slayer, is a fun addition to the streaming service's quickly growing supernatural catalogue. Season 2 is in the works.
