Black Christmas
As the residents of the Pi Kappa Sigma sorority house prepare for the festive season, a stranger begins to harass them with a series of obscene phone calls.
The Bone Collector
Lincoln Rhyme was the department's top homicide detective and leading expert in criminal forensics until an injury left him paralyzed, depressed, and incapable of working. But when a gruesome murder in Manhattan leaves detectives baffled, they call on Rhyme to help solve the mystery. Amelia Donaghy, a rookie cop whose quick thinking preserved a gruesome murder scene, is enlisted by Rhyme to be his on-the-scene forensics expert. With Amelia reluctantly acting as Rhyme's able-bodied go-between, the pair piece together cryptic clues the killer leaves behind at the scene of the crime, hoping to catch the grisly serial killer.
Everybody Knows
Laura, a Spanish woman living in Buenos Aires, returns to her hometown outside Madrid with her Argentinian husband and children. However, the trip is upset by unexpected events that bring secrets into the open.
The Girl on the Train
Rachel Watson, devastated by her recent divorce, spends her daily commute fantasizing about the seemingly perfect couple who live in a house that her train passes every day, until one morning she sees something shocking happen there and becomes entangled in the mystery that unfolds.
A Walk Among the Tombstones
Private investigator Matthew Scudder is hired by a drug kingpin to find out who kidnapped and murdered his wife.
What to know before choosing
Crime splits into two families that have nothing in common: the investigation, which promises an answer, and the criminal film, which follows people you know from the first scene are going to fall. The first wants your attention; the second works when you are tired. Both are here, and the rating does not tell them apart: read the summaries. This is the genre where a good and a bad evening hang on that single detail.
Peacock is the Universal library with a streaming service attached, and that shapes everything: horror, comedy and the studio-era back catalog are unusually deep, while anything outside Universal is thin. It also keeps a genuinely free ad-supported tier, which no other major service here does — so a Peacock list answers a slightly different question from the others, namely what is worth watching for nothing at all.
