Tallulah

If you loved Orange is the New Black, then chances are you might notice some similarities in the writing between the show and Tallulah as they were both scripted by Sian Heder. The movie follows the life of the title character after she “accidentally” kidnaps a toddler from a mother with a drinking dependency. Okay, so maybe it isn’t such an accident after all, but Tallulah knows she can use the child to help track down her run-out boyfriend. Thankfully, there is plenty of humor as Tallulah comes to terms with being a mother, even if she never planned on it in the first place.

Gerald’s Game

The name might sound familiar, and that’s because it is. This Netflix original movie is based on the Stephen King novel all about a couple looking to spice up their marriage. The idea is simple: a weekend away in the woods just husband and wife. That is until Jessie finds herself handcuffed to the bed waiting for her husband, who has passed away on the floor from a heart attack. Great. With no one around, no phone, and in the middle of nowhere, Jessie must crank things up if she ever stands a chance of escaping.

The Ritual

We’re starting to notice a theme here. Horror fans by any chance, Netflix? The Ritual is a Netflix original that follows all the standards of a terrifying movie. Uncharted woods? Check. Shadows everywhere you turn? Check. Group of friends in mysterious circumstances? Check. Now, all we need is a creepy bunch of people all living out in the wilderness to make up the rest of the cast, and we’re set. Oh wait, we’ve got that too. The friends must try and escape from these new people, but will they be able to make it to safety in time?
