Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

I'm just waiting for some dinosaurs to show up.

i totally forgot that melanie lynskey was in heavenly creatures and played rose on 2 & a half men and is from new zealand. she is such an awesome actor. definitely reason enough to watch i don't feel at home in this world anymore.

she has made soooooooo many movies that i have never seen. like 20+ movies.

she was in Up in the Air lol

yeah she's the best. i'll watch that movie

Wait new The 100???? Dje5;gtx#\£dbhnlix I am so excited! Did it just go up today? What up wanheda

thanks for the heads up! Loved Gimme the Loot

aye, the same - that was a good movie was that.

One of the best things about it was its brevity and it seems the new one is only 82 minutes as well

more short movies imo

it seems very long since I watched it, but I remember at the time thinking the world would be better with more movies like it.

yup otm. the way i discovered tramps existed was by seeing gimme the loot on my shelf & being like what has that dude been up to

Cannabis (six-episode French Series from 2016) wants to be The Wire minus cops and almost gets there. Bonus points for setting the action in France, Spain, and Morocco and for having a few strong female characters to offset feuding drug dealers of varying levels of power, ambition, and vileness. Well worth the time if you're not bothered by dialogue in French and Spanish with English subtitles. Très violent, très dur.

That sounds interesting, will watch

the comments on that show are... interestign

totally forgot that melanie lynskey was in heavenly creatures and played rose on 2 & a half men and is from new zealand

Weird- I totally forgot she was in 2 and a Half Men too, and I used to watch that show. For me her filmography basically begins with "Happy Christmas" and ends with "Putzel" - she's great in both.

Wow, Get Me Roger Stone -- did not expect this to be so good

i've never been a big sarah silverman fan but the new one is a lot more thoughtful than i've ever seen her before. and it's funnier as a result imo

"Bad Company" - 1972 revisionist Western starring a young Jeff Bridges is up on Netflix atm. Definitely worth a watch

So been watching The Keepers - terrifying.

don't watch War On Everyone, it's terrible. like a long episode of Police Squad directed by Quentin Tarantino. it actually made me cringe for the director and i was only able to watch about half an hour of it. young bro dudes might like it though.

there is ANOTHER Sundance-y Melanie Lynskey movie on now. from 2016. Little Boxes. but i don't feel like watching it.

you guys still haven't watched The Overnight, right? i know, you're busy. Comey Day coming and all. you gotta get ready...

I watched it a while back. It was ok

Keepers is good though deeply depressing

I also watched The Overnight awhile back and it was thoroughly enjoyable

I was expecting a depressing murder mystery, was not expecting the full extent of it. But there are some very strong survivors and believers in people that we meet in that show

About the keepers that is

don't watch War On Everyone, it's terrible. like a long episode of Police Squad directed by Quentin Tarantino. it actually made me cringe for the director and i was only able to watch about half an hour of it. young bro dudes might like it though.

yeah it was...not good

wanna re-up Hasan Minahj's Netflix special as it was very funny and sincere, anyone see it?

I thought it was great. Excellent storytelling, just the right amount of sentiment.

Can anybody recommend some good horror films? They've added a few, but I'm not familiar with them and the new rating system doesn't work so hot for horror films, where OK ones get overrated and good-bad ones often get rated worse than bad-bad ones.

These all caught my eye:

Under The Shadows
The Invitation
The Similars
The Presence
The Disappointment Room

I'm kinda picky but I've been lucky to watch some good ones lately, most but not all on Netflix: It Follows, Hush, Green Room, Crimson Peak, The Boy (which critics hated but was so much dumb fun)

i've heard nothing but good things about under the shadow. the invitation is extremely divisive for some reason but it's prob my favorite film of the past few years, horror or otherwise

oh wow that is a hell of a recommendation! i'll move that one to the top of the queue

it touches on a lot of things that are really resonant for me (the total consuming and distorting nature of grief for instance) and it's beautifully shot

the invitation is worth seeing, imo, not really a 'horror' movie tho per se (part of it's appeal)

'don't kill it' was also pretty fun, but not on netflix

'he never died' was ok -- some ppl rated henry rollins' performance but i thought it was kinda whatever

i really want to watch 'the green room' again, the whole experience of seeing it with only a one-sentence plot setup (i very deliberately avoid trailers for horror/thriller movies) was so fucking great. it's one of the few movies i've seen in recent years that instantly made me want to watch it with someone else who's totally naive to it, just to see them react to it

has anyone seen "the devil's candy"? it's on my amazon watchlist

Under the Shadows is GREAT

Going to watch tonight

Pacific Rim AND Gravity have been added!! If I had a giant-ass TV I would be all over those

oh, hello on broadway

did anyone watch that new backwards caper movie yet? netflix exclusive? wait, i'll find the name....

Shimmer Lake! looks like it might be cool....

Riverdale, while it couldn't be mistaken for good, is entertaining background TV

I loved it

Would not have gone within 1000 yards of it if not for this thread though

riverdale is so too good soda how dare u

It makes me want CSI: Stars Hollow

ooh yes

Luke Perry and Skeet Ulrich and Madchen Amick were so good

I really like the Betty actress too

Yeah, Betty does a lot of good acting without great material. Apparently (according to my students) Jughead's "I'm weird speech" is a well-known meme. As it should be, though, because

He was great too obv

New(ish) Joe Swanberg movie w/ Jake Johnson and Keegan-Michael Key looks like it might be worth a watch

can recommend! it's good, way less aimlessly improv-ed than Drinking Buddies etc. I enjoyed it
