Pumpkin spice has officially arrived, there's a pumpkin patch on every corner, and the debate over whether candy corn is actually good is raging once again. The #1 way to get in the spooky spirit is still with a good movie, whether it's a seasonal classic, a new horror gem, or a family favorite that just screams fall vibes.

Some will automatically think of classic Disney movies or similar family-friendly feature-length cartoons from their childhood, while others will automatically gravitate toward adaptations of their favorite comic-book stories. Others still may consider the exotic appeal of anime or the avant-style of artists outside the mainstream as the “best” animation has to offer. The only thing these disparate features have in common is that they’re devoid of live-action components; anything else goes. With this broad range of animated movies in mind, we’ve combed through the available features streaming on Netflix to bring you the best of the best. There’s something here for everyone.

Love period pieces? You can now pick your preferred timeframe — from gangsters in the 1920s (Peaky Blinders) to the British Royal family in the 1960s (The Crown) and teens in 1990s Ireland (Derry Girls). Looking for a more fast-paced thriller? Binge Bodyguard or Collateral. Want to watch something buzzy and downright weird? Well, Black Mirror and The End of the F***ing World are here for you. There are even options for the British sci-fi fan that isn’t interested in Doctor Who. (Crazyhead is an underrated gem, and we should all say so.) Here are the best British shows on Netflix.

It's time to take it back to high school and the delights of teen movies. Teen cinema has a long and proud tradition, from the heyday of Old Hollywood, through musicals, comedies, dramas, horror, and pretty much any other genre you can imagine. And why would that be surprising? Coming-of-age stories are packed with heart.

]]> Wed, 04 Oct 2023 00:00:31 GMT https://collider.com/best-teen-movies-on-netflix/ Why seek out a pulse-pounding action film or a knee-slapping comedy when you can get the waterworks going? Sad movies resonate longer and more deeply than do others. They connect with a part of us that wants to feel something more than mere entertainment when we sit back and tune out the rest of the world. And yet, they might remind us of our own lives, of the one that got away, of a lost family member.

]]> Tue, 03 Oct 2023 12:00:32 GMT https://collider.com/sad-movies-on-netflix/ The definition of anime has long been a source for debate amongst fans. In Japan, the word "anime" is simply Japanese for animation, no matter the media or its origin. But outside of Japan, the word has come to be associated specifically to animation being produced in Japan or from Japanese creators. This gets a bit complicated, as plenty of cartoons from the West like Transformers and even Animaniacs were at least partially animated by Japanese studios, and shows like The Last Airbender and movies like The Matrix were heavily influenced by anime. With Netflix now becoming a powerhouse in the anime industry, things get even more complicated, as they have shows made by Western creators like Castlevania and Seis Manos but are marketing them as anime. For this particular list, we’ve decided to go by Netflix’s own anime category, choosing from the movies listed within it, no matter its origin. Keep reading to discover the best anime movies on Netflix.

Penn Badgley has earned a badge of honor as the psychopathic heartthrob in the Netflix original thriller series You, and everyone wants to be friends with the juvenile delinquents on Outer Banks. As true crime podcasts and documentary series like Making a Murder and Joe Exotic: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness continue to thrive, so have addictive and dangerous crime series.

But until Netflix creates a real "Netflix and Chill" category, you might find yourself struggling to come up with new movie suggestions to keep things fresh. Sure, you might have your tried and true, go-to make-out movies, but if you're tired of watching Titanic or Pretty Woman for the 100th time, you need to change it up. That's where we come in.

]]> Fri, 25 Aug 2023 12:01:26 GMT https://collider.com/netflix-and-chill-movies/ Music is the universal language, and when combined with the visual medium, it can often create something quite special. The musical genre has certainly had its ups and downs over the years following its heyday throughout the 1950s and 60s, but you can always count on a resurgence following a fallow period. And, of course, Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Second Golden Age throughout the 1990s was defined by adding a musical element back into its films. So if you’re looking for something to sing along to, tap your feet to, or maybe just something to make you feel happy, below we’ve assembled a list of the best musicals on Netflix right now.

Or does the tension of the courtroom keep you on the edge of your seat? If the answer is yes to either or both of these questions, then you are at the right place. Whether you are a law enthusiast, a legal drama fan, or simply passionate about good storytelling, legal drama shows can be one of the most satisfying entertainment experiences. From real-life events and well-researched documentaries to fascinating fiction, these are the best legal drama on Netflix right now. Now, approach the bench, counsel.

]]> Wed, 23 Aug 2023 12:00:24 GMT https://collider.com/best-legal-drama-shows-on-netflix/ TV shows are one of the best ways to understand different cultures and the reality of countries all over the world. In addition to Japanese, Korean, and British shows, Netflix has been investing heavily in Brazilian productions that give international viewers a broad perspective of Brazilian culture, history, and also politics. From deep dives into Brazil’s complicated judicial system and panoramic views of the history and development of its music to more light-hearted reality TV, here are some Brazilian shows that you can binge-watch to get a perspective and a privileged view of Brazil.

]]> Thu, 17 Aug 2023 16:01:25 GMT https://collider.com/best-brazilian-shows-on-netflix/ It’s certainly gotten better over the last decade or so, but in the past, the representation of queer people on screen was a bit hard to come by. Previously, queer movies were generally of the indie or underground variety, with movies like But I'm A Cheerleader, Jennifer's Body, and Desert Hearts becoming cult classics years after release. In recent years, LGBTQ+ stories have become more welcome in the mainstream, with some major successes being Love, Simon, Call Me By Your Name, and Moonlight. In order to celebrate the queer community and make LGBTQ+ entertainment more accessible, we thought it might be helpful to provide a little guide to the best LGBTQ+ movie offerings on Netflix. There’s simple romance, comedies, horror, and lots of documentaries. So if you are looking for a good queer movie to watch, we’ve got you covered.

]]> Thu, 17 Aug 2023 12:00:25 GMT https://collider.com/best-gay-lgbtq-movies-on-netflix/ While everyone loves a good blockbuster from time to time, there’s something about a great independent film that strikes a particular chord. Indie movies can feel like hidden gems when you discover them, as they rarely get the kind of distribution or marketing that turns major studio movies into box office hits. And you can often feel the blood, sweat, and tears that went into making an indie movie, as the filmmakers involved put everything on the line for the sake of their art. So since Netflix contains a multitude of viewing options, we figured it’d be appropriate to go through and pull out the very best independent films currently available on the streaming service. So below, peruse through our list of the best indie movies on Netflix right now.

]]> Thu, 10 Aug 2023 17:00:35 GMT https://collider.com/best-indie-movies-on-netflix/ While titles like Squid Game and All Of Us Are Dead have cemented Korea’s place in the streaming era in what some are calling The Korea Wave, South Korea is not the only East-Asian country producing innovative, vital TV. Japan has been quietly producing live-action content made for the streaming era that, we feel, have largely gone unnoticed. Japan has been considered a cinematic powerhouse for the better half of the last hundred years, as well as producing countless unforgettable anime series, series made for the streaming platforms are, we feel, due for a renaissance. If you’re looking to dive into the world of Japanese TV here are our picks for the best Japanese TV shows on Netflix, including the classics as well as the new titles you can’t afford to miss!

]]> Thu, 03 Aug 2023 16:00:23 GMT https://collider.com/best-japanese-shows-on-netflix/ There is inherent magic in the language of cinema, and when that language transcends borders, it becomes a beautiful combination of visuals and sounds that appeal to one's soul. Consuming films in different languages is like embarking on a daring adventure, where subtitles become windows into unfamiliar cultures. It's a passport to empathy, an invitation to broaden our horizons, and an opportunity to experience the universal power of storytelling in its purest form. Netflix, the ever-expanding treasure trove of cinematic delights, has become a haven for international gems that transport viewers to new cultures, perspectives, and narratives. From heart-stirring tales of love and loss to gripping thrillers and thought-provoking dramas, the streaming platform offers an unparalleled collection of the best foreign-language films that ignite the senses and open the doors to a world of unparalleled storytelling. The crème de la crème of foreign cinema is listed below, awaiting your discovery on Netflix.

]]> Fri, 28 Jul 2023 17:15:25 GMT https://collider.com/best-foreign-language-films-netflix/ Dystopia. A concept that anybody who took a literature class should be more than a little familiar with. To put it simply for those who are unfamiliar with the term, a dystopia is the antithesis of a utopia. Where a utopia is a perfect society where every problem has been solved, a dystopia is a perfect society that is operated by those problems, often creating an oppressive environment for the less fortunate. The concept is omnipresent in stories like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, Brave New World, and more. Given that those three examples alone are some of the most influential pieces in modern storytelling, it's no surprise that many movies have taken inspiration from dystopic stories.

]]> Sat, 22 Jul 2023 19:31:23 GMT https://collider.com/dystopian-movies-on-netflix/ The Old Dark House of 1932 is often believed to be the first Hollywood slasher, but it would be fair to say, that the 1926 silent film, The Bat, was what paved the way for "old dark house" films and made this genre popular and successful in the years that followed. The story of “guests in a remote mansion menaced by a killer in a grotesque mask” explored in the film became a trope and a template for an exhaustive list of slasher thrillers that Hollywood holds in its treasure. Blockbuster franchises like Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Scream, and similar others that followed that trope defined the Golden Age of the slasher genre from the 70s through the early 00s. And with recent reboots and remakes of these franchises and newer additions to the genre, we now find ourselves in a new generation of terrifying but gripping stories of a maniacal killers haunting and hounding multiple victims. Cringe or scream, these movies do have the power to make you jump in fear, sometimes, literally.

]]> Fri, 21 Jul 2023 18:00:24 GMT https://collider.com/slasher-movies-on-netflix/ Music has the power to lighten up a person's gloomy day and bring people together like never before. Netflix knew exactly what to do to bring music lovers and artists closer together by producing documentaries focusing on some of the biggest names in the world of music. Whether you are looking to get to know pop stars like Taylor Swift beyond her hit singles or a massive Metallica fan wanting to uncover fun facts from one of the band's most celebrated albums, the following list has enough recommendations for you to pick and choose what to watch next.

]]> Mon, 17 Jul 2023 23:15:22 GMT https://collider.com/best-music-documentaries-on-netflix/ Sometimes you need just the right movie to spice things up and set the mood. They don't call it Netflix and Chill for no reason. With that in mind, we combed through the Netflix catalog so you don't have to in order to find the best hot, steamy, and downright sexy movies on Netflix. OK, so some of these may not be considered conventionally sexy, or maybe they start off hot and heavy before descending into tragedy and trauma, but all of these films confront and explore the spectrum of human sexuality in cinema. From romantic comedies to erotic thrillers and prestige dramas Netflix's selection runs the gamut.

]]> Wed, 12 Jul 2023 00:00:18 GMT https://collider.com/sexiest-movies-on-netflix-streaming/ A good sports movie may be hard to find but when it is done well, no other kind of movie can inspire us, aggravate us, make us cheer, or make us cry in equal measure or even in the same moment. It’s the best of both worlds. Mixing the competitive physical feats and last-minute dramas of sports with the keen eye of an experienced director and a committed group of actors can make a sports fan out of a complete novice. Currently, Netflix has one of the widest libraries of sports films ranging from hockey to boxing and drama to comedy. To save you hours of scrolling through one of the largest streaming services, here’s a list of 15 of the most captivating and entertaining sports films Netflix has to offer.

]]> Sat, 08 Jul 2023 20:30:19 GMT https://collider.com/best-sports-movies-on-netflix/ With such a wide-spanning medium like animation, it's easy to overlook a lot of shows. In this seemingly specific genre, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Time again, animated series that don't get some spark of buzz online or on social media often go unnoticed -- especially on such a huge platform like Netflix. Fortunately, there's plenty that can be curated into this list. Straight from the streaming giant itself, here are some of the most underrated and bingeworthy animated shows on Netflix.

]]> Sat, 01 Jul 2023 19:30:19 GMT https://collider.com/underrated-animated-shows-on-netflix/ Netflix, everyone’s favorite OG streamer, has one of the biggest selections of psychological horror films around. Psychological horror and its focus on the character’s emotions and inner world tend to stick with us in ways goofier jump-scare-heavy films don’t. If we want to be scared not just at the moment but for the rest of the week, then psychological horror is our go-to. Of course, with Netflix’s massive and sometimes oddly tagged library it can be hard to find the perfect film with just the right vibe. Fear not, because we’ve put together a list of some of our favorite psychological horror films currently on Netflix.

]]> Fri, 30 Jun 2023 20:30:18 GMT https://collider.com/psychological-horror-movies-on-netflix/ Comedy may be every moviegoer's best friend, but fear is the unsung hero film. Fear of loss, loneliness, death, or worse, propel characters through the climax of their respective pictures. Fear is a pit. Fear or terror is the promise suspense threatens to fulfill — and audiences love it. Few genres utilize fear more than horror and thriller. With the success of shows like Squid Game, Stranger Things, and The Haunting of Hill House, Netflix is aware of audiences’ love affair with fright and thrill. But there’s a fine line between being held in suspense and being dangled in dread. Sometimes a title and cover aren’t enough to discern an experience. Below is a selection of Netflix titles that excel at delivering suspense.

]]> Fri, 30 Jun 2023 12:00:18 GMT https://collider.com/most-suspenseful-movies-on-netflix/ When it comes to relaxing content, cooking shows are the crème de la crème of easy-watching feel-good TV.

]]> Tue, 09 May 2023 12:00:17 GMT https://collider.com/sexiest-tv-shows-on-netflix/ Since the mid-2010s, true crime as a genre has been at an all-time high. Podcasts, TV shows, and movies like Serial, Making a Murderer, and O.J.: Made in America have introduced a whole new generation of fans to the genre, cementing it in pop culture and paving the way for numerous productions about the strangest and most shocking stories the crime world has to offer. Soon enough, with the help of streaming services (particularly Netflix), people all around the globe were getting acquainted with the cases of Amanda Knox (Amanda Knox), Joe Exotic (Tiger King), and the Rajneeshpuram community (Wild Wild Country), among many others. And if true crime, at first, seemed to be an American phenomenon, or at least restricted to the English-speaking world, now more and more crime stories from all over the world are popping up on Netflix at an ever quicker rate. Over the second half of 2021 alone, the platform has included in its catalogue at least six true crime docuseries from countries like Germany, South Korea, Israel, Brazil, and India. Many more are on the way and lots of titles are already available to stream. Here’s a list of seven international true crime shows on Netflix that definitely deserve a watch.

If you're single, it’s a day when no one spontaneously buys you drugstore chocolates, and you seriously contemplate adopting a dog. If you're in a relationship, you suddenly find yourself thrust into the Love Olympics: buying one of those jumbo cards that would swallow up a child, trying to bribe your way into an overpriced restaurant, or hoping your significant other wasn't lying when they said you can totally skip the holiday this year (better buy that pink stuffed bear just in case!) Valentine's Day is a recipe for the blues no matter what your relationship status is, so why not get all your pent-up rage at St. Valentine out with a good old-fashioned Anti-Valentine's Day movie?

]]> Mon, 13 Feb 2023 13:00:16 GMT https://collider.com/best-anti-valentines-day-movies-netflix/ Hungry for some horror? Netflix has a library of endless frights, courtesy of body horror flicks, psychological thrillers, haunted house tales, and more. Since its inception, horror has always been a genre where women have thrived in their fight to survive monsters, men, and supernatural entities that seek to destroy them. With the popularization of the "final girl" film trope in the 70s thanks to movies like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) and Halloween (1978), their long-lasting impact of putting women in the driver's seat wielding weapons has lasted up through today. Netflix should not be overlooked where scream queens and modern-day horror are concerned, and here's a list of the best women-led thrillers to watch on the service right now.
