Eyes Wide Shut Streams Free on Tubi This Season

Stanley Kubrick’s controversial 1999 erotic thriller, Eyes Wide Shut, has found a new home on Tubi. The film, which stars Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, is now available to stream for free on the ad-supported platform, offering a new way for audiences to experience the divisive classic, especially during the holiday season.

Film Overview and Reception

Eyes Wide Shut was the final film from director Stanley Kubrick. It follows Dr. Bill Harford (Tom Cruise) on a sexual odyssey after his wife, Alice (Nicole Kidman), confesses to having intense fantasies about another man. His journey leads him to a secretive and perverse underground society. Upon its release, the film garnered a mixed but strong reaction, earning $162 million at the global box office and a 76% Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

An Unconventional Holiday Film

While not a traditional horror movie, Eyes Wide Shut is often described as a perfectly disturbing watch for Christmas. The film uses the festive backdrop of twinkling lights and carols to contrast with its dark narrative of primal desires and marital turmoil. Kubrick’s nightmarish style creates a sense of unease, making the story of a man’s descent into a web of depravity a unique alternative to conventional holiday fare.
