It may technically be shorter, but there’s a good chance that April 2020 feels even longer than March (and for a lot of us, March felt like the longest year of our lives). With many businesses temporarily closed and Americans quarantining themselves at home to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus, indoor time is going to be plentiful as Spring gets started.
Thankfully, Sling TV has more movies than the internet has April Fool’s jokes. All Sling subscribers — including those currently enjoying our 7-day free trial — have access to a huge catalog of movie titles, both live and on-demand. And our flexible, à la carte options means you can add premium channels like Starz and Showtime to access even more movies. Navigate to the “Rentals” tab and you can also find the latest movies (or old classics) with just a few clicks. Best of all, if you rent a movie from April 2-5, 100 percent of all profits will be donated to Good360, a global nonprofit leader that is delivering critical supplies to healthcare providers and first responders.
In fact, Sling has so many movies, we put together a monthly guide featuring 50 highlights. From seasonal events like Easter (or having a good cry) to popular genres like horror and superhero movies, consider this list a basic overview of the thousands of titles available to watch. This April is looking like it won’t be a joke; Do the right thing, quarantine with Sling.
