2 Netflix new releases to watch and 1 to skip this weekend (Oct. 25)

As a seasoned Netflix enthusiast with an affinity for both gripping dramas and heart-stopping horror flicks, I can confidently say that this weekend’s lineup is nothing short of enticing.


Although Halloween isn’t until next week, the Oct. 25th weekend can be considered the unofficial celebration period. It’s an ideal time to include all your favorite autumn movies and shows in your viewing list. If you’re looking for something fresh on Netflix, they have three recently released titles that are perfect for weekend viewing.

Apart from “Territory, Beauty in Black” and “Don’t Move,” Netflix boasts an impressive array of top-rated titles currently. The true crime docuseries “This Is the Zodiac Speaking” and Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut “Woman of the Hour” have climbed to the highest spots for TV shows and films. Meanwhile, “Escape at Dannemora,” “Kung Fu Panda 4,” “Family Pack,” and “The Comeback: 2004 Boston Red Sox” have also made it onto their rankings.

For the most anticipated Netflix releases this weekend, there’s something for everyone. But remember, it ultimately boils down to individual taste. To assist you in deciding what to stream on Netflix this weekend, we’ll be reviewing each of our top three picks and offering suggestions to watch or pass. Discover what deserves a spot on your watch list and what can wait with our recommendations below!

Territory

Pay attention! The Australian Western drama series, titled “Territory”, offers a generous serving of family drama similar to popular shows such as “Yellowstone” and “Succession”.

If you’ve found pleasure in one or both of the mentioned series, I highly recommend giving Territory a try this weekend. With just six episodes, it makes for an effortless weekend binge-watching experience. The cast, featuring Anna Torv, Michael Dorman, and Sam Corlett, truly shine in their roles, ensuring the show is captivating from start to finish.

Head on down to Marianne Station for some wild twists and turns!

Beauty in Black

By all means, don’t miss out! Tyler Perry’s first Netflix original series, titled “Beauty in Black,” has generated quite a buzz on streaming platforms, landing at the second spot in the daily top 10 list of most popular shows just a day after its release.

This captivating television show is packed with dramatic twists and tests the boundaries, earning it a spot among the most thought-provoking series this year (with another installment yet to come!). Yet, some viewers might find Perry’s style of overly emotional storytelling not to their liking.

It might be wiser to pass on reading “Beauty in Black” this weekend if you aren’t previously fond of his work.

Don’t Move

If you’re planning to watch a spine-chilling horror movie before Halloween, you might want to consider Netflix’s latest offering, “Don’t Move“. It promises to deliver the scares that you’ve been craving.

As a passionate movie enthusiast, I’d like to share my excitement about an intriguing film that Sam Raimi, the mastermind behind the original Spider-Man series, has brought to life. This thriller stars Kelsey Asbille and Finn Wittrock. The plot revolves around a woman who’s been drugged and is in a race against time to outmaneuver a relentless serial killer before she loses control of her own body. It sends shivers down my spine just thinking about it!

Without a doubt, “Don’t Move” is set to be among this weekend’s top new releases if you’re a fan of horror films. Therefore, it would be wise not to let the opportunity slip by and catch it as soon as it hits the screens!
