Phil Nobile Jr writes an excellent column for the always entertaining Badass Digest. His monthly "Big Streaming Pile" compiles awesome films currently available to watch on different movie streaming services. You should read it. But first, you should read my blatant rip-off.
Here's four films you should watch on Netflix right now.
Upstream Color - Shane Carruth's second feature is a trippy love story about...well, i think it's actually best to go in cold on this one like i did. It's a beautiful, thought-provoking film that feels like Terrence Malick courting Philip K. Dick.
It's A Disaster - The debut (i think) feature from Todd Berger about a brunch. A brunch among friends who are all hiding things from each other. A brunch among friends who are hiding things from each other while a terrorist chemical weapons attack goes on outside the house. This movie is way funnier than it has any right to be.
Prohibition - You really should watch every Ken Burns documentary. They're all excellent. This three-parter about the Prohibition era is a lot of fun and exhaustively researched.
Once Upon a Time in the West - Ending with a classic, this is probably my favorite Sergio Leone film, my favorite Ennio Morricone soundtrack, and my favorite spaghetti western period. It's beautifully shot, acted, scored, and on and on and on. If you've never seen it, you owe it to yourself to check it out.
Okay, so go and watch these now. You've got a great Sunday ahead of you.
