Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

despite its terrible acronym, I highly recommend John Dies At The End for extradimensional hijinks

something about small children with english accents makes me always lol

hand em over to Willy Wonka i say.

despite the epic roo hunt, Wake in Fright is really all about excessive drunkenness and repressed homosexualitry (like high school drama club parties).

okay i am definitely watching john dies at the end. see, that's why this thread is good. i had no idea it was by the phantasm guy. i love him. i even loved bubba ho-tep.

you are in for a treat :D

i watched "First Winter" over the weekend

it was pretty slow and unlikable for the first two acts but i'm glad i didn't give up on it because imo it redeemed itself in the end. very beautiful and haunting film altogether.

sort of a Martha Marcy May Marlene meets The Road kind of vibe if that sounds like its up your alley

however, there's a pretty inexcusable blooper where an actor's microphone is caught on screen for an extended shot during an otherwise intense scene...

I loved Monsters. I found it very affecting.

i walked out of jdate

wait directed by who

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2294619/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_4

"At first it's a party of sex; drugs; and yoga. But as supplies dwindle; they turn against one another."

A story told many times

a party of sex

I just inhaled Scandal in massive doses and nothing else has even come close in ages. I'm a believer.

don't know what to do when my yoga supply runs low

That's not how you use semicolons!!

is that the sequel to helvetica or w/e

TABU really knocked me out at the theater, not sure how it may translate to a Netflix stream.
It's the latest from Miguel Gomes, director of "Our Beloved Month of August."

Watching Troll 2 right now. It's quite something.

Thanks for the heads up on Tabu; been wanting to see that

Chuck!

LOL, classics. Actually, addition of Big Top Pee Wee is intriguing. That movie was lost to the ages.

Is it the uncut/expanded/totally OTT Caligula?

Jack Frost

"Snow Dad is better than no dad!"

finally watched house o fthe devil; like the dude's style but his movies really tend to sputter out

Did anyone other than scott watch Redemption? Need some Statham

i like safe, blitz, parker, killer elite, in the name of the king, the italian job, and the expendables 2 more than redemption. as far as streaming netflix statham goes. but i am scott.

I watched about 15 minutes. Maybe some other time. I have seen all of those other than in the name of the king. Also, Parker is ok

Canada just got Doctor Who (2005-). I am tempted. Do I need to know anything about the old series?

No

yeah, you can easily jump in with Eccleston

he is doctor who, he travels thru time in a box, humans are his friends

jump in, water's fine

Huh... I think this is the film that played at the Tribeca FF that my coworker described as "American Apparel: The Movie".

your co-worker sounds delightful

Yes she is and she said the guy in the lead role was essentially a Dov Charney-esque sleazebag.

Maybe I'll add it to the queue and see what all the fuss is about.

Just started Brooklyn Castle and I'm already squeeing through my tears.

you know, Empire State is pretty good despite the incongruous presence of The Rock. 80's period piece about Greek-American dudes in NYC and crime gone awry. director was an 80's hardcore punk dude and the 80's vibe is nice. cuz if you look at the poster you'd just think it was a standard Rock vehicle.

silent black and white bullfighting fairy tale dwarf movie looks kinda cool.

although right now i'm watching Olympus Has Fallen cuz that's how i roll. best white house destruction porn ever.

Agreed. Best B+ movie of the summer.

Oh wait, I thought you were talking about White House Down.

c'mon man

new aziz special is p good

Denver newspaper reporter Garret Smith takes matters into his own hands when police fail to challenge a rogue band of Mormon avengers who may be harboring a serial killer in their midst.

cosigning on pruitt-igoe myth; what a solid doc

I watched the aziz special the other night, definitely his best so far. He's gotten "edgier" in his delivery.

now i'm watching The Bay. barry levinson eco-terror grossness. do not watch if you hate that ile hole-fear thread.

I know every time I see a good documentary I come here and tell you it's the best (Pruitt-Igoe--WAS I WRONG?). Today, Brooklyn Castle is the best. The BEST. And it's not even a sad cautionary tale about human folly, it's CHARMING and funny as heck.
