The Fourth Kind – Picture: Universal Pictures
The Fourth Kind (2009)
Genre: Horror, Mystery, Sci-Fi, Thriller Director: Olatunde Osunsanmi Cast: Milla Jovovich, Will Patton, Hakeem Kae-Kazim, Corey Johnson Runtime: 98 min We begin with a movie that wasn’t initially announced for release today in the form of The Fourth Kind which while being successful at the box office, didn’t receive overly good reviews when it released over 10 years ago. The movie is about an unsolved mystery in Alsaka where investigations continue into the disappearance of a huge number of people across four decades.GANTZ:O (2016)
Genre: Animation, Action, Drama, Fantasy, Horror, Sci-Fi, Thriller Director: Yasushi Kawamura, Kei’ichi Sato Cast: Daisuke Ono, Mao Ichimichi, Tomohiro Kaku, Saori Hayami Runtime: 95 min One of the best things about Netflix is the addition of strange and whacky titles from abroad you wouldn’t see anywhere else. GANTZ:O fits this description to a tee. The Japanese CGI animated movie is based on the manga series and scored well with critics. Here’s what you can expect:“Teams of recently deceased people who’ve been revived and given high-tech weapons must cooperate to defeat an army of monsters in Tokyo and Osaka.”
Time Is Illmatic (2014)
Genre: Documentary, Biography, History, Music Director: One9 Cast: Nas, Cornel West, Pharrell Williams, Swizz Beatz Writer: Erik Parker Runtime: 74 min Netflix has been on a roll recently with its music documentaries with Biggie being a recent good example. Today, Netflix got the 2014 doc on the creation of Nas’s debut album which sees us out and about throughout New York.Zoot Suit (1981)
Genre: Drama, Musical Director: Luis Valdez Cast: Daniel Valdez, Edward James Olmos, Charles Aidman, Tyne Daly Runtime: 103 min For lovers of older movies, you’ll want to check out Zoot Suit from Universal Pictures which just landed on Netflix for the first time today. Here’s what you can expect if you’ve never watched it before:“In this drama based on a 1940s trial, the members of a Mexican American gang are sentenced to San Quentin for a murder they may not have committed.”
