THE VIETNAM WAR, tells the epic story of one of the most consequential, divisive, and controversial events in American history as it has never before been told on film. Movies Lists netflix Page 1 Paste. This is my fifth time compiling this list of the best horror films streaming on Netflix for Paste, and in that time Ive seen some serious ups and downs from the worlds most prominent streaming service. The first few times I updated the list, I was disappointed to watch great horror films hemorrhage from the service like so much slasher blood, but the last time I returned to it, in the spring of 2. I was pleasantly surprised. For perhaps the first time, when we updated this list six months ago, Netflix had actually added more quality horror films than theyd lost. Watch The Tell-Tale Heart Streaming' title='Watch The Tell-Tale Heart Streaming' />So, where does that leave us in the fall of 2. Halloween season Well, its very much a mixed bag this time aroundthere have been a lot of subtractions, AND a lot of additions of note. Since the last time we compiled this list, 1. Netflix, including classics such as The Shining or The Omen, as well as modern favorites such as Sinister or From Dusk Till Dawn. We also lost out on some excellent indie films, including Jim Mickles We Are What We Are, or Ana Lily Amirpours A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night. Those hurt to lose, but at the same time we gained classics such as Spielbergs Jaws and horror comedies like Young Frankenstein, along with more indie greats from the last few years such as Train to Busan or A Dark Song. In the end, it feels like things have held fairly even in terms of the overall quality level in Netflixs horror library, although it continues to be frustrating that the service doesnt go out of its way to add additional horror content as it approaches the Halloween corridorthe one time of the year when many people are seeking these films out. And how you let The Shining of all things slip off this list in October, Ill never know. With that said, there are a few things to keep in mind. For example, Netflix is very lacking in classics and franchise staples. Dont expect to find any Halloween or Friday the 1. George Romeros zombie classicsnot even Night of the Living Dead, which is free in the public domain for them to exhibit. What they can usually claim, though, is a decent number of more recent, solid indie horror pictures such as The Babadook, Starry Eyes or The Canal. The key is knowing which films to watch, and not getting sucked into watching the direct to VOD trash, which proliferates on Netflix like a weed. In the current era of suggested films with percentage ratings, its harder than ever to tell the wheat from the chaff. Thus, we invite you to use this list as a guide. The lowest ranked films are of the fun bad varietyflawed, but easily enjoyable for one reason or another. The highest ranked films are obviously classics. Check them out, and let me know about any great horror films currently on Netflix that you think deserved a spot on the list. You may also want to check out the following lists The 1.

I honestly wish Netflix had more films in the library akin to The Brainiac, and less of the modern horror trash. Seeing this weird old gem of 6.

Mexican zero budget horror makes me curious how exactly it ended up on the streaming servicewhats the story behind how this random film, about a sorcerer who returns from the dead as a brain sucking ape man, was deemed worthy Did someone from Netflix actually watch it at some point, or was it accidentally uploaded as part of a package deal of some kind Has anyone besides me ever streamed it Who cares Its a film that looks like it could very well have been shot by a young Roger Corman, featuring some guffaw inducing monster costumes and delightfully incompetent performers. Watch The Tell-Tale Heart Streaming' title='Watch The Tell-Tale Heart Streaming' />The Elegant Universe. Eleven dimensions, parallel universes, and a world made out of strings. Its not science fiction, its string theory. Aired 711, 718. Pastor Lindsey Williams unveils the truth behind the elite plan for humanity and this planet. All that its missing is a luchador hero, but you cant have everything. Jim Vorel 6. 9. Sharknado Year 2. Director Anthony C. Ferrante. B movie geeks and bad movie fans are not kind to the original Sharknado, and I dont think thats entirely fair. It gets flak from that audience for being purposefully bad, but it is possible to make an entertainingly goofy film in this way its just pretty rare. Now dragged down by an increasingly forced run of sequels, all of which Ive reviewed for Paste because Im a crazy person, its easy to lose sight of how slapdash and thus amusing the first film was. Theres absolutely no budget behind Sharknado, which makes the gaffes introduced by a tight shooting schedule all the more apparent and hilarious. The sky goes from dark to sunny in between shots in the same scene. The film idles in place for 2. Tara Reid tries to get dialog to come out of her mouth, and fails spectacularly. In short Theres fun stuff here. Dont be a bad movie hipster embrace the original Sharknado. The sequels, feel free to ignore. Jim Vorel 6. 8. Zombeavers Year 2. Director Jordan Rubin. Look, if you dont know before you ever hit play exactly what you should be expecting from Zombeavers, Im not sure how much I can help you. Its a film about toxic waste spawned zombie beavers, people. Its halfhearted as both a horror film and a comedy, with a preponderance of jokes that thud and just enough that will draw an ashamed chuckle. 16 And Pregnant Season 5 Episode 1. It feels like a throwback to the straight to VHS horror schlock of the 8. By the time people start turning into WERE BEAVERS near the films end, youll have settled into a good groove of mocking its flaws and enjoying its alternating shamelessness and reverence for the genrebecause at least they attempt some interesting practical effects. Good on you, Zombeavers. Its trash, but a step above the bottom of the barrel. Jim Vorel 6. 7. The ABCs of Death Year 2. Directors Various directors The ABCs of Death is an anthology film with a great premise 2. Unfortunately, the results are as scattershot as you would expect, and for every good entry there are two uninteresting, confusing or just plain gross for gross sake ones. Its worth seeing, however, for the two or three entries that are really great, which also happen to be from three very promising directorsNacho Vigalondos A is for Apocalypse, Marcel Sarmientos D is for Dogfight and Adam Wingards Q is for Quack. The D entry is probably the star of the show and the one that attracted the most critical praise when it came out, for good reason. Its a grungy, uncompromising, brutal inversion of a typical story between a man and his dog, and its beautiful looking to boot. Jim Vorel 6. 6. Deep Blue Sea Year 1. Director Renny Harlin. Look, its not easy to make a decent shark movie even under the best of circumstances. In the decades since Jaws was released in 1. Deep Blue Sea had a tough swim ahead of it particularly given that it came from five time worst director Razzie nominee Renny Harlin. So the fact that it succeeds as a loony popcorn shark thriller is worthy of a little bit of recognition. The effects are a bit dated now, but for 1. CGI, used to animate this story about super intelligent sharks created in an underwater research facility. A few of the scenes are appreciably bloody, such as the live shark brain surgery that ends with one of the researchers short a hand. And then of course theres the death of Samuel L. Jacksons character, a legitimately shocking moment that has gone down in history as one of the best movie deaths of the 9. But really, its the little things that make Deep Blue Sea more charming than most, from the cheese factor of Thomas Janes mop of curly hair, to the surprisingly amusing role played by L. L. Cool J, who memorably dispatches a shark because you killed my bird A character in a thriller, using his final moments to video record the perfect omelette recipe for the worldI can get behind that. Jim Vorel 6. 5. Stake Land 2 The Stakelander Year 2. Director Dan Berk, Robert Olsen. I am a big fan of Jim Mickles 2.
