Tired of looking for good movies to watch on Netflix, Amazon Prime or other streaming services? Every week I recommend a handful of the best movies on Netflix, Amazon, HBO etc. so my subscribers never run out of good movies to watch on streaming. Spending 10 minutes watching one of my videos could save you hours of searching, hours that you could otherwise spend watching good movies on streaming that you otherwise might not have ever watched or even known about.

Thanks for watching!

Holy moly you mentioned Naked Lunch early on. Love that flick!!

[ademozkum]

It's not related to this list, but Tubi has a great crime drama you rarely see, "True Believer" with James Woods and a young Robert Downey Jr. It also has the terrific mini-series adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize winning book "Lonesome Dove", which has a really stacked cast.

I've never forgotten what a surprise The Hitcher was to me when I saw it in a theater. It is SO good.

[ianmann]

Natural Born killers is quite the ride with all the actor performances dialled up to 11😉

[awotnot]

Rec sounds good. Not seen Hitcher for years and reckon it should hold up. Problem with it for me is I saw it at the midnight flicks at release in central London and the experience will never be matched. Brilliant film. Strangelove is a masterpiece. As is NBK.

Bought a Saint Nicholas Tshirt. Awesome page. I honestly love Nick Cage. Well done, Man.

A great list....i always enjoy your pales in comparison to REC (2007). The only plus side, is it is in English, so no subtitles. I believe Quarantine even used footage from REC and spliced it in there...terribly.

[bwanamatata]

Great video, as usual.
Wish I was of normal size so I could rock me some St. Nicholas, as well.
Had a thought, that I'll toss to commenters and the channel: Are there recent movies that you know you will love, but also know they will "fugg" you up for a bit, and you need to be in the exact right mood?
Mine are the recent "All Quiet on the Western Front" and "Infinity Pool". Actually, started dipping my toe into the Infinity Pool, thinking it would be a regular body horror, but the opening cinematography and sound design quickly dispelled that foolish notion.

~~The Hitcher, still one of my all time favorites&must of watched it good 5x the year it released alone. With easily one of the wickedest tense character introductions there is. You know a movie's an awesome ride when it seems like it's maybe 30min long?

I’d like to add to the list the 2005 French movie 13 Tzameti, directed by Bela Babluani. It’s shot in all Black & White, really dark and crazy, and it may not exactly be a great date night movie, unless your significant other or date is a nihilistic psychopath. It’s not currently streamed anywhere that I know, so you have to dig around to find a DVD for sale online. The dialogue is in French, but the Region 1 edition for the US has English subtitles, which is good. It’s a seriously messed-up classic. Flip side - avoid the 2010 Hollywood remake that Brad Pitt’s production company churned out. Original director Bela Babluani made it, but it’s not the same. Somehow, filling the cast with Hollywood stars and filming in color just sucks the heart and black soul out of the original story.

After that, Man Bites Dog is a worthy film that you mentioned but should be on the list. It’s sick, disgusting, perverted and psycho. And it has parts that you laugh at then feel ashamed about. Unless somebody in Hollywood gets some sick, diseased bug up their ass, it will never, ever be remade for American audiences, which is as it should be.

Another movie that should’ve at least gotten a word or honorable mention is another Stanley Kubrick film - A Clockwork Orange. It’s filled with violence, disgusting and offensive things, and it was even banned in England for many years because people couldn’t handle it. When I was a kid, I went to a preview in Hollywood before it officially came out, and people in the audience lost their shit. Some even walked out. After the movie, me and some other kids from college had a sit down with a couple of old-school Hollywood industry insiders, and they were totally freaked out. They hated 2001 when it came out a couple years earlier and thought Kubrick was garbage. Clockwork Orange, to them, convinced them that Kubrick was insane and that his career was over. Of course they were wrong on all counts. Stanley Kubrick is a legend, and I don’t think anybody remembers who those old Hollywood farts were.

It Comes at Night carries the uncertainty right into the characters. How does that guy have a black son?!? They never explain it!!

[Nastyboy]

Thank you for adding Foreign streamers!👍🏻

[eddiebyrne]

I would like to see you do a review on Western movies

[cshep]

I loved REC, Quarantine I felt was not as good but that may be because I already knew the storeyline.

[hobonickel]

I found it hard to believe the distopian American western titled "The Bad Batch" (2016) Lily Amiripour was not only on your list but not first on the list lol. You are letting me down kind Sir.. I can only hope it's because it has been slightly (just a wee lil bit) occulted and barely visible to mainstream observation over here in the states with little or no marketing despite it being in english, despite the star studded cast that is Jim Carrey, Jason Momoa, Suki Waterhouse, Keanu Reeves and Giovanni Ribisi. Not to be confused by the Star Trek series by the same name making it even more obscure. It pays tribute to Jororowsky the spaghetti westerns and the sound track especially it's themed song by Federale. It is on point!

Time to start binging max all of these look interesting, i was in the usaf for 20yrs and they got dr strangelove pretty damn close to real events

[chrisb]

Hi, does anyone know if you can get the T-shits shipped to the Uk?
Thanks

[jiggidyjam]

It comes at night isn’t on paramount +

[DeltaDemon]

The american version of quarantine is way better than the Spanish version because the cause of the affliction is not stupid in the american version. In the Spanish version the cause is magic/god. Stupid. Ruins the whole movie.
