James Cameron's returning classic pits a reprogrammed T-800, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger, against the shape-shifting T-1000 in a relentless chase to stop Skynet's nuclear apocalypse. Linda Hamilton anchors the momentum, and the effects and stunt work still land hard on a big screen. Screenings are limited this week, so plan around a narrow window. It rates 90% on Rotten Tomatoes and 8.6 on IMDb.

A badass Army sniper, played by Adria Arjona, must unleash hell when a rogue squad of genetically engineered super soldiers breaks loose in the desert, with her young daughter to protect.

Screenings are very hard to find this week, so grab it the moment you can.
