Netflix Australia is adding a bunch of fresh movies and TV shows to get you through the weekend. Here’s everything that will be dropping between February 8 and February 10!
If you still haven’t seen the Oscar nominated horror film Get Out, make that your top choice for tonight’s viewing. For a more cerebral take on race relations, check out The Two Killings of Sam Cooke, a true crime documentary about the shooting death of African American singer Sam Cooke.
Ghost in the Shell is also worth a watch if you can stomach the blatant whitewashing. There’s also another season of The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants. (Y’know – for kids.)
Here’s the full list!
