*“Stream”* (2024) combined slasher tropes with a betting mechanic: hotel guests are locked inside a building and hunted by four masked players while viewers wager on the kills. The narrative examines technology-driven voyeurism and greed. The film is free on Tubi and Amazon Prime and also available on DVD and Blu-ray.
