Csn anyone recommend films that don't come up straight away on Netflix?

There must be films I'm missing but just don't know about!

I really liked Rex, and blue is the warmest colour (graphic sex scenes in that though!)
Currently watching a series called the rain

Arrival?

I enjoyed Cargo the other day

Australian, v cute baby

Zombie film which I usually dislike - just didn’t watch the yuck parts not too bad though

I love the Cabin in the Woods and Tucker and Dale vs Evil. Both possibly acquired tastes though

The ones that are easiest to find on your Netflix may depend on what you've watched previously, but the following (in no particular order) are all excellent films:

The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
Schindler's List
Downfall
Hush
Cargo
The Limehouse Golem
Children of Men
The Revenant
Atonement
What Maisie Knew
God's Own Country
A Monster Calls
The Light Between Oceans
Wonder
Angela's Ashes
Kramer vs Kramer
Whiplash

God's Own Country is amazing.

I watched the ballad of buster Scruggs (I think it was called that) and it was excellent. I looked it up and it’s a Coen brothers film and quite Tarantino-esque if you like that sort of thing

We enjoyed 'Stranger than Fiction'. Great cast including, Will Ferrell, Dustin Hoffman, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Emma Thompson.

What we do in the Shadows - really good, funny mockumentary about vampires who house share in New Zealand.

Yeahnahyeah · 07/02/2019 00:26

Kiwi here. If you liked What We Do in the Shadows, see if u can find a series called Wellington Paranormal, which follows on from the movie. So funny.

Slatterna · 10/02/2019 23:20

Hunt for the Wilderpeople by the same director of What We Do in the Shadows is also great!

Lighthouse of the Orcas was good (not sure if still showing?)

I watched Hurricane yesterday. About the Polish pilots who flew with/for the RAF during World War 2.

Brilliant and touching.

MadameJosephine · 18/02/2019 10:06

The Endless, low budget but really clever

MadameJosephine · 18/02/2019 10:08

Extinction

RolandDeschainsGilly · 18/02/2019 10:10

Annihilation

Jozen · 18/02/2019 10:12

Also agreeing with Australian film Cargo. Great movie and amazing scenery.
I can't remember if I watched this on Netflix or not but Australian crime/drama series Mystery Road is also fantastic if you come across it.

TanteRose · 18/02/2019 10:12

Calibre - really good suspense, set in Scotland
