Today, Tubi is adding a slate of 21 films to its free streaming lineup. All of the titles were funded with Kickstarter and handpicked for the FilmStream Collective, an initiative launched by Kickstarter and Tubi in June 2025 to bring independent films to the free streaming service with a curated collection of titles.
The partnership is meant to provide resources to bring independent projects to a larger audience by addressing two of the biggest hurdles for filmmakers – funding and distribution. Projects start with Kickstarter’s community-powered funding model before the finished product comes to Tubi. The two companies are offering financial backing, creative freedom, and guaranteed distribution.
Here’s more about a few of the new titles:
- The Decedent by Andrew Bowser takes us inside a funeral home, where a young mortician confronts the spirit of a serial killer on her embalming table.
- Don’t Trip, Alex Kugelman’s sharp, unsettling thriller, follows a struggling writer spiraling into a dangerous relationship with a troubled nepo baby.
- The GeeChee Witch: A Book Hag Story, from Fairfax Pictures, roots its horror in ancestral fear. After her mother-in-law is mysteriously killed, Leah and her husband relocate from Harlem to his family’s estate in coastal Georgia. Out of her element she grows increasingly convinced someone in the low country has put the “root” on her. Leah’s fears are realized when she discovers a Boo Hag has been unleashed on her family. Disguised in the skin of past victims, the witch is determined to take Leah’s husband – and her life.
- God Said Give ‘Em Drum Machines, directed by Kristian R. Hill and produced by Jennifer Washington, is a documentary that rewinds to 1980s Detroit, telling the story of how Black musicians built Techno music from the ground up – developing a sound that would travel the world, transform dance floors, and shape a multi-billion-dollar industry.
“We’re excited to bring Kickstarter creatives and the communities who support them to our audience of nearly 100 million viewers,” said Anjali Sud, CEO at Tubi when the partnership was first announced. “Tubi is becoming the home for the next generation of Hollywood talent. Whether we’re bringing crowdfunded films onto the platform, turning a Wattpad novel into a movie or putting the power to green-light in the hands of the fans – we are expanding the pathways for creators to grow their audience and adding greater diversity and differentiation to our content offering.”
