I'm your host, Darren Van Dam!
Tired of looking for good movies to watch on Netflix, Amazon Prime or other streaming services? Every week I recommend a handful of the best movies on Netflix, Amazon, HBO etc. so my subscribers never run out of good movies to watch on streaming. Spending 10 minutes watching one of my videos could save you hours of searching, hours that you could otherwise spend watching good movies on streaming that you otherwise might not have ever watched or even known about.
Thanks for watching!

I've been enjoying the Koren movies lately. Subtitles are rough for some, but the story and characters are better than almost everything Hollywood puts out. Worth it!

Arctic is an unusual film in that there is like maybe 15 words said throughout the whole film. Mads does the film justice through just surviving and facial expressions. And the man against nature theme here is very real.

Nice descriptions! Like that you call them as you see them. Helps me decide what to watch.

[@tunguskalumberjack9987]

My obsession over the past year has been many of the Scandinavian shows and limited series. Not all, as I’m not big into comedy types, but the crime dramas and supernatural stuff have been excellent. I am totally good with subtitles, as I keep them on even when I’m watching a show in English- I watch most movies and shows in my bedroom, and during the summer, the A/C and the fan make it hard to always hear all of the dialogue. That, and I’ve always enjoyed listening to other languages. Anyone looking for suggestions on which shows to check out, I’ll list my favorites below: Equinox The Chestnut Man The Valhalla Murders Bordertown (3 seasons)* Deadwind (3 seasons) Entrapped The Lørenskog Disappearance Borderliner Katla The Day Will Come Occupied (3 seasons) * this show also has a conclusion movie, called Bordertown: Mural Murders

[@venom7774]

Thx u. I got hooked on scandanavian movies on tubi

[@tunguskalumberjack9987]

@@venom7774 Happy to help! I’ve watched a few on Amazon Prime, but they irk me because so many of the ones that I think look like something I’d really enjoy end up not actually being included on Amazon at all, but these other services that they are partnered with. I’m not going to subscribe to a fifth streaming service just to watch 3 shows, but Amazon advertises them as if they were the ones carrying them. I looked through Hulu and they didn’t seem to have anything that appealed to me, but Tubi is fantastic. I haven’t looked through their catalog of Scandi stuff yet, but thanks for letting me know that they carry some. I usually spend about a week straight watching nothing but Tubi when I start, because their selection is immense, and I’m just trying to catch up 😆 Thanks again, and have a great week!

[@Jadedxx]

Omg I LOVED Deadwind! And I'm on Season 2 of Borderland which is amazing! There was another one I forget the name off but she was a coroner something like she talks to the dead. It was amazing.

[@honig2sassi]

Thanks - I am hooked on Scandinavian crime dramas and murder mysteries. I keep waiting for Varg Veum to make a move to Netflix. There are a few on this list of yours that I haven't seen so I will definitely check them out. I loved Bordertown but got a bit sick of the daughter in the final season. I keep looking for more/new stuff but haven't seen anything new lately.

Excellent FLICK CONNECTION, Darren. The Strays looks like one to see. Many thanks for sharing with us. Always look forward to your monthly reveals 👍👍👍

[@MarkRVillano]

I think that a lot of what Netflix claims to be their Top Ten is not based on the number of people that actually sit through an entire movie or series. Much like the game that Amazon tried playing with their Rings of Power debacle, they go with the number of initial clicks that are based more on the viewer's curiosity than anything else. Millions of people like to see if a film or series is actually as bad as they've been told, and once they realize that this is indeed the case, they bail. But Netflix will nevertheless chalk them up in the "Win" column.

[@gigiartstudiowithartistvir3919]

It would be nice if streaming services didn't add so many old movies that we've all seen over and over in favor of fresh content. Another thing I've noticed about Netflix in particular, is they seem to be catering to a younger audience.

Gunther's Millions is well made, but the story made me feel a bit queasy. A dog inheriting that much money?.. I could predict the end by the end of 2nd episode. SMMFH. You is back!? Awesome. Normally not my cup of tea nor my husband's, but the two of us got wrapped in the story with a quickness. I agree, Netflix has top quality true crime series.

Unfortunately Viking Wolf was very disappointing. Lots of staring and monosyllable conversations. The men were portrayed as useless (as usual) and the women as brave and stunning. The wolf looked as bored as I was watching it.

[@e.g.truthseeker4673]

90% of these WOKE/FEMINIST $hi+ is usually boring

[@arthurwatts1680]

OK - I'm an old cynic but the only movies I go back to a second (or third) time are a few Tarantino and vintage classics like Vanishing Point, with the odd sci-fi movie thrown in. Right now I'm into series from a variety of cable networks - 1923, East New York, The Last Of Us and The Peripheral - but what I'm really obsessing over is season 2 of Halo, and we may have to wait until 2024 for that. I'd forgotten just how good the season finale was from season 1 - went back and watched it again and was blown away. Anyone who is put off by the fact that The Last Of Us and Halo are based on video games really needs to give them both a chance imo. Thanks for the video.

[@scottstewart316]

Vanishing Point......a vastly underrated and (unfortunately) unseen commodity. What an awesome movie that was!
