What to Watch This Weekend: Netflix Edition #5

Each weekend, I recommend a movie, documentary, and TV series that I found through Netflix or started watching because it was conveniently on Netflix and I had been meaning to get to that movie/documentary/TV show for some time. If you have any recommendations, feel free to leave a comment!

Movie


The Tall Man

The faded mining town of Cold Rock is haunted by a lethal specter known as the Tall Man, thought to be behind the disappearance of numerous children. When Julia Denning’s son David also vanishes, she sets out to unlock the chilling mystery herself.

The pacing of this movie is a little slow but I think it’s worth it in the end…

Documentary


The Listening Project

Named Best Documentary at the Santa Cruz Film Festival, Dominic Howes and Joel Weber’s intellectual trek through 14 countries attempts to uncover answers to the question, “What does the world think of the United States of America?” Individuals from all walks of life and myriad cultures freely express their stark opinions — both complimentary and condemning — of a nation that may not be loved by all, but leaves few lives untouched.

TV


The Colony

This Discovery Channel reality series explores what life might be like after an apocalypse by planting 10 volunteers in a devastated landscape and asking them to rebuild civilization from scratch.
