Infinity Pool has made quite the splash since it premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival in January. The horror-slash-science fiction flick from writer/director Brandon Cronenberg was one of our favorite films out of Sundance and has earned itself a certified fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The disturbing, envelope-pushing content has caused a stir not only amongst audience members, but also the actors involved in the film. It stars True Blood‘s Alexander Skarsgård and Pearl‘s Mia Goth and is filled with “wild sex, hallucinogenic drugs, graphic violence, and skin-crawling body horror,” according to Mashable’s film editor, Kristy Puchko.
“It’s just crazy, crazy.… Love it or hate it, but it’s rare to experience something like this as an actor,” Skarsgård said at a post-Sundance Q&A.
Summer horror fest, anyone? Infinity Pool is officially available to stream online as of June 23. Here’s what brave viewers need to know to watch from home.
Is Infinity Pool on Max?
Max, formerly HBO Max, is a one-stop shop for all things Warner Bros. Since Infinity Pool was produced by Neon and not Warner Bros., it will not be streaming on the platform. Several Neon films have found a streaming home on Hulu — Spencer, The Worst Person in the World, Palm Springs — and Infinity Pool will follow in their footsteps. You can watch the chaotic flick on Hulu as of June 23.
Can you watch Infinity Pool online for free?
If you’ve never been a Hulu subscriber before, you can easily watch Infinity Pool for free by utilizing the streamer’s generous free trial. Select Sprint customers and students also have a couple of different options to score a free subscription. For everyone else, you may not be able to watch for free, but you can still save money (more on that below).
How to get Hulu for free
Best for most people: Hulu 30-day free trial

While many streaming services have dialed back — if not fully eliminated — their free trials, Hulu still offers a generous 30 days for newbies. If you’ve never signed up for the streamer before, now’s your chance to take advantage of your free trial on the No Ads or Basic plan. You’ll have plenty of time to watch Infinity Pool when it comes out on June 23, plus any other Hulu originals you’ve been curious about (we suggest The Great, The Bear, and Handmaid’s Tale, to name a few). If you choose to keep your subscription after your trial period is up, you’ll have to pay either $7.99/month for the Basic plan or $14.99 per month for the No Ads plan. Cancel before your trial ends and you won’t have to pay a dime.
Best for Sprint customers: Hulu Basic (with ads) annual subscription

If you’re a Sprint customer on the Sprint Unlimited plan and haven’t already claimed your free Hulu Basic subscription, head on over to the Sprint (which is now T-Mobile) website to learn how. As long as your Sprint Unlimited plan is active and in good standing, you’ll have Hulu included for no fee. However, if you change or cancel your plan, your Hulu subscription will be suspended along with it. See the FAQs and terms if you have more questions.
Best for students: Spotify Premium for Students with Hulu

Students looking to have a scary movie night featuring Infinity Pool have a few options. Our top pick is Spotify Premium for Students, which offers a generous one-month trial and includes Hulu Basic for no extra charge. That means you get one entire month of Spotify Premium and Hulu. Even better, once your free month is up, you’ll pay just $4.99/month for both services — all you need is a .edu email address to secure the deal.
Hulu also offers a student account on its own for just $1.99/month — another great option if you have a .edu email address. There’s currently no free trial for the student account, but at only $1.99/month, it’s a forgivable offense.
Student status on both platforms will be verified by SheerID to prove you are enrolled at an accredited higher education institution.
Other ways to watch Infinity Pool on Hulu
Don’t qualify for the free options? You’re not completely out of luck. There are still ways to save on a Hulu subscription. You could commit to a full year and save or you could bundle your subscription and get some extra bang for your buck. You could also just sign up for a single month of Hulu and cancel once you’ve watched Infinity Pool. Technically, this won’t save you any money, but it also means you won’t waste any.
Best long-term commitment: Hulu (with ads) annual subscription

Instead of paying $7.99 every month, Hulu allows you to pay for an entire year at once for $79.99. That saves you about 17% and knocks the cost per month down to just $6.67. With a long-term subscription, you can pay once and forget about it until your subscription renews 12 months later (be sure to set a calendar notification). At that point, you can cancel if it no longer suits you. Beyond Infinity Pool, Hulu has plenty of other excellent shows and films we recommend — like The Bear, The Clearing, and Tiny Beautiful Things, to name a few — and with a year’s subscription, you’ll have plenty of time to watch them all.
Best bundle deal: Hulu + Disney+ (with ads)

If getting the most bang for your buck in the streaming age is important to you, the Disney Duo Basic Bundle can save you 37% on your monthly subscriptions. The Duo Basic Bundle gives you access to all of the content Hulu and Disney+ have to offer (with ads) for just $9.99/month — that’s just $2 more than paying for Hulu on its own. For an even better deal, you can throw ESPN+ into the mix for $12.99/month with the Disney Trio Basic Bundle, which saves you 49%. While you end up paying more overall, you get access to two or three different streaming services for one low price. That’s two or three times the content and up to 49% savings. It may not be the best option for someone purely looking to watch Infinity Pool and be on their way, but for those hoping to watch all sorts of new series and films this year, it doesn’t get much better than the Disney bundle.
Other ways to watch Infinity Pool at home
Can’t handle signing up for another streaming service? Understandable. You can still watch Infinity Pool at home by renting or purchasing the film from digital retailers like Amazon, Vudu, or Apple TV. Most rentals give you 30 days to start watching the film and 48 hours to finish it once you begin. Meanwhile, if you purchase a digital copy of the film, you can watch it whenever you want because you own it.
