Just got Netflix - recommend me some films please

[Frosty66611]

I know I’m very late to the party but I’ve just signed up to Netflix as I’m currently feeling very sorry for myself with a bad throat infection and a heavy painful period and thought i’d treat myself to a rare day on the sofa.

Please recommend me some of your favourite films on there.

My top genres are:
Horror
Thriller
Disaster movies (Day After Tomorrow type stuff)
Romantic comedy

Thank you

The fundamentals of caring

[florentina1]

Nothing to Hide is great. At a dinner party people decide to unlock and answer their phones so that all can hear. Each call is more explosive than the previous and secrets come out.

[Darkbaptism]

Then haunting of Hill house is a great series.

[GetSchwifty]

Cargo

[FranKatzenjammer]

Yes, Cargo is brilliant. Also Hush.

[FranKatzenjammer]

The Road is another one you might like, if you haven't already seen it.

[Queenofthedrivensnow]

Limitless is great

[Whoseranium]

Annihilation is absolutely brilliant.

The Babysitter is a lot of fun.

I've not watched them yet but Gerald's Game and 1922 are both supposed to be really good.

[AppleJuiceFlood]

Not a movie but a series or two...

Mindhunter
The sinner

[HappyPunky]

It's not a film but you might like Stranger Things.

Also Crazy Ex Girlfriend is very good I'm binging that at the moment but it's very long.

Also try Inside number 9 it's made by two of the league of gentlemen.

You might like Black Mirror too, that's Charlie Brooker, both of them are quite short per series.

I don't watch many films because there are so many excellent series on there.

[AppleJuiceFlood]

I would second Black mirror too actually.
Very dark and clever.

[driggle]

Based on your interest in horror I'd go for

Cabin in the Woods
Tucker & Dale vs Evil
From Dusk til Dawn
American Psycho
The Collector
The Wailing (Korean thriller)
Office (Korean horror)

[TheLovleyChebbyMcGee]

Yes to Mind Hunter, Dale and tucker v evil, Stranger things and Black Mirror.

I'd also add in The Autopsy of Jane Doe and American horror story.

[Eenymeeny123]

I'm a bit late to the party too, so also following this thread for the replies. I enjoyed the good girls, the alienst, the haunting at hill house and the mist, Safe and travellers. I found mind hunter good but a bit slow. I haven't watched many movies on it.

[oldmum22]

On recommendation from florentina1, we watched Nothing to hide and it was extremely good. THANK YOU

[IfyouseeRitaMoreno]

Ooooh just watched Nothing to Hide too. It was very good albeit a bit depressing. I mean all that money and no happiness.

[TanteRose]

Calibre is really really good - I can't recommend it highly enough. And it fits your criteria very well

[Tiredemma]

The Last Kingdom

[Xiaoxiong]

The chilling adventures of Sabrina or whatever it's called is surprisingly horror movie-esque considering it's about a teenage witch. Very easy watching

[Ffsnosexallowed]

You

[IfyouseeRitaMoreno]

Oh bloody hell, also just watched The Fundamentals of Caring. 20 minutes in and I was crying like a baby!

Thanks for the recommendations. I’m lying here sick and am bored out of my mind!

The road

[PippaParty]

Big Little Lies. If nothing else the theme tune is gorgeous.

[PeachyRat]

A monster calls was great
