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! - Zábava

I recommend a Movie called Freaks 👍
Faults rather reminded me of the Keitel/Winslet movie Holy Smokes. And Killer Joe is very good, great performances from McConaughey and Emil Hirsch gave great performances, and everyone else was top flight too. Plus I totally agree with Kiss the Girls being the best adaptation of an Alex Cross book yet. I am looking forward to a re-watch of Black Swan and, having loved Amelie, I'll certainly be watching The City of Lost Children.
You Were Never Really Here ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’ve tried so many times to watch silence
Add "Once were Warrior" into this
I saw the city of lost children by myself in the movie theater. It was the best way to watch it. Completely alone in the movie theater with only two other people watching. Such a beautiful film.
Just saying…………If there’s two other people in the theater, than you weren’t completely alone. I know, I’m that guy. Sorry. haha 😂
@@darrenpokorski7756 Point taken. I meant I went by myself when I was quite young. No one I knew was interested in going. I had never wanted to see a movie bad enough to go alone. The other people were not by me, but technically you are correct.
Going to the movies alone is awesome. Why is it such a taboo?
@@bbogacz I was just being a smart ass, I apologize. A friend and I went to see a movie and there couldn’t of been 4-5 people altogether including us. It was nice. No one cared if someone was talking, we all where laughing having a good time. A good memory.
@@darrenpokorski7756 Don’t apologize. I thought it was kind of funny. When you comment online you can miss the wink and nod. This is the reason I’m horrible at online dating 😸
The hook here for me is City of Lost Children, one of my Top International Films of all time... why Criterion hasn't picked it up is beyond me! So great to hear you give it such prime kudos! 🐺
Oof. Killer Joe. Made me appreciate Matthew McConaughey's acting prowess in a whole different light.
As a celebrity, he can grate. As a professional actor, he has few equals in this generation not named Tom Hardy.
Add in True Detective and he's certified gold 🔥
Agreed also Thomas Haden Church is brilliant
The film made me realise he could actually act. 🤣
Have you this directors movie called BUG with Michael Shannon? It's pretty out there too.
My recommendation is 'We need to talk about Kevin' also included on Prime and is by the same director of 'You were never really here' Lynn Ramsay. It is subtly disturbing, but given the climate of our schools/etc. Very relevant and has stuck with me since I watched it about 3 years ago.
Great recommendation! It's a wildly uncomfortable movie.
Good suggestion. I thought it was a far better film than You Were Never Really Here as in the latter I never cared about any character
I was gonna suggest that. Thanks for beating me to it. 😃
I really appreciate the recommendation. Thanks.
Definitely a great film!
I very rarely comment on CZcams but your videos and recommendations are excellent, and I love how you promote some really obscure titles that I hold very dear to my heart, and that others get to experience and enjoy them too! Great work, keep it up, I always look forward to your videos and going through your back catalogue of vids! 👍
I can’t tell you how much I LOVED “The City of Lost Children”! Gorgeous steam-punk sets and such interesting looking cast. Love seeing Ron Perlman and Dominique Pinon in the same movie again (Alien Resurrection). My suggestion is to initially watch this with English dubbing and subtitles and then watch it in the original French (I mean if English is your language of choice). I’m so glad I have this on Blu-ray.
Couldn't agree more. Found that gem waaaaaaaay back when Netflix wasn't garbage. Miss those days.
Hey, your video just popped up in my recommended list. I'm so glad! I love weird, offbeat and downright strange movies. I love your recommendations and descriptions. Keep up the great work!
Solid vid as always. Really like how you post the list in the top comment for reference. I find myself wishing other CZcamsrs did that but you're the only one who does.
Reason people don't is because they want to avoid people not watching the video.
Without a doubt. Your channel is a must have for movie buffs. Love your lists. I may not always agree. But. You’ve helped me expand my horizons.
Leland Orser is one of my favorite character actors, especially in "Se7en".
Black Swan: "When this movie was released it came out to very mixed reviews mostly mixed from the audience because it is so wild and so weird."
Um, what in the fuck are you talking about? This movie got 85 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. It got an 84 percent audience score. Both critics and audiences clearly loved this thing. It made a THIRD OF A BILLION DOLLARS in theaters. For a non superhero, non franchise, R-rated, indie drama, A THIRD OF A BILLION DOLLARS. People clearly liked it. It was definitely weird, but that doesn't mean it was particularly polarizing; people loved it.
Come on man, do better.
"Silence" was absolutely incredible and brutal to watch. It's very eye opening and makes you think. If you haven't seen it, you definitely should
Love the recommendations as always, but seeing inconsistencies in the last few vids of dates not matching the movie. Knit picking, but glaring. lol
City Of Lost Children was directed by Jeunet and Marc Caro together. I believe Jeunet's first solo film was Alien Resurrection, and Caro was a consultant on that, too.
Thank you for the great list!
You Were Never Really Here is a mindblower; Lynn Ramsay is an insanely good director, and this is one of my favorite Phoenix performances. Great recommendation!
He's Ultra Dark though!
Definitely agree. This one came out of nowhere for me, one of those rare "I'm bored...hey what's THIS??" moments without the normal prerequisite research. SO GOOD.
@@aimeelynne7372 Totally Agree. Though This One was Firmly on my Radar, Prior to Release.
.. the Hallway/Entryway Sequence and the End are (WONDERFULLY) ELECTRIFYINGLY Insane. 👏👏👏🎨
(EASILY) One of the BEST Thrillers EVER. 👏👏👏👏👏
. ...
Lemme know if anyone would like some additional "similar" recommendations. Every Bit the Equal As ThisOne
🙏
@@drumbum3.142 Oh hey we're ALWAYS down to toss recommendations around over here! Would you like to select a micro-genera and could exchange a couple??
@@aimeelynne7372 Definitely. Assuming I Understand Correctly.
Was thinking of Titles (Approximately) Similar to This one (You Were Never Really Here) but if. There - are more specific parameters of sorts You have in mind, Lemme Know
🙏
Just now discovering your channel. I like that you dont give any spoilers.
DVD, watched Jungle last night and was blown away. Great suggestions. Thanks as always!
I have checked out some of your recommendations and have not been disappointed. Thanks for what you do.
I absolutely love Jean-Pierre Jeunet movies. Amelie, Delicatessen, A Very Long Engagement, and The City of Lost Children are wonderful. The first film I saw of his was Micmacs, which is also on Amazon, but I do not believe it is free. Hilariously, he also directed Alien: Resurrection. Such a great pick for your #1 slot on this list. I enjoyed this video, and you have inspired me to subscribe! I love movie breakdowns and film history.
My favorite Jean-Pierre Jeunet film is The City of Lost Children, but my favorite film experience was watching Alien: Resurrection at an employee and friends only midnight premiere. We had cases of beer and bottles of champaign and there was even some skateboarding involved. Bad film great memory.
Glad to see the love for City of Lost Children. Saw that years ago and just feel in love with the story and visuals.
I absolutely loved you were never here ! Going to check a few of these out this weekend. Thanks !!!
Another great FLICK CONNECTION PRESENTATION, Darren. I highly recommend You Were Never Really Here. Quality performance from Joaquin Phoenix. Many thanks for sharing with us. 💎💎💎
A well put together list. Just a quick note that "A Quiet Place 2" was from 2021 and not 2011, as is listed during the film clips.
Actually he has A Quiet Pace 2 listed as 2010, which is even more incorrect.
There are a lot of dates wrong. Kiss the Girls came out in 1997 not 2011. This guy is a clown.
@@geriatricgta6165 A clown, maybe, but a clown recommending good movies. I'm just downloading 2 of of this "clown's" recommendations
@@davel9514 you sound like a weirdo
This is a great list. I have seen all except Jungle and Silence. Those will be on my list for the weekend.
Darren....Have you done a collection of 'revenge' films? For whatever reason 'revenge' really brings out the best in storytelling (second to 'love', of course). Movies like Blue Ruin, The Horsman, Old Boi (not the remake), etc bear up under repeated watchings.
How random is it that just earlier today I watched the episode of "I shouldn't be alive" here on CZcams about the true story that they clearly based the movie jungle on! I went over to watch it on prime after you suggested it, great movie! Definitely interesting to see a more gory and detailed version of the events! Those reenactment TV shows do a decent job for what they work with but this was interesting! What an ordeal!!! I will say, the movie seemed pretty accurate if you watch the guy's first hand stories ! My life is just strange like that tho
.. I justtttt watch that episode! The I watch your channel for literally the first time, and out of the 5 movies you suggest, I pick the one that I just watched a TV doc on in on CZcams earlier today... 🤯😅
Great picks. Probably already been commented but you got the year on Quiet Place 2 off. It was a good one. Gonna have fun hitting some of these I’ve never heard of.
Always love the recs!! Thanks!
Roger that
You are spot on about Jean Pierre Jeunets CITY OF LOST CHILDREN. That film and his earlier DELICATESSEN are masterpieces. (And one might include AMELIE and T.S. SPIVET)
DVD I love your format but a few months ago you did a list that wasn't just one streaming service. It was just a list of some of your favorites and where you can find them. I would love to see more of that. I would also like to see a spoiler free no holds barred review of new releases... i.e. Maverick or dr strange 2 etc. Keep it up I been a long time supporter....even thinking of joining you on pateron. Thanks DVD
Glad you added Jean Pierre Jeunet's movie. It's incredibly well done and written, gritty + witty.
Thanks again for doing what you do for us! I've been watching so many foreign language films lately, thanks to you! 😊
Happy to hear that!
Darren once again great picks. Why did I not hear of your no 1 pick before? You were never here with Joaquin is excellent.
that shirt, where did you buy it from? keep up the great work.
Have you seen Freeway? Keifer Sutherland, Reese Witherspoon, late 90's big bad wolf story. Wild, weird and not PC. Streaming on Amazon Prime. Love your vids! My husband loves your vids & your shirts! Haven't looked to see if you have wardrobe links but hope you do. Gotta do some b-day shopping. 🙂
Great reviews. Question; what happened to the emojis? The ones you had for Patreon supporters, ect?
Thanks for another great list of recommendations.
Thanks Darren. Killer Joe and Silence are already on my list. Most of the others I've seen. Jungle is good, kiss the girls is one of my favorites, for some reason I thought it was older.
I love Killer Joe. I saw it back in 2011. I was even more excited when I found out it is based on a play!!
The best!
“I got him Joe! F****** kill him!”
Bro I love your content. Been watching most of your videos for a couple years now.
Right on, thanks for hang'n with me
Great job as always Darren.... Respect. Keep up the great work
I'm addicted to your videos, you give the best recs.
Glad you like them!
kiss the girls was pretty good i saw that when it was on Netflix ! Also city of lost children is a great bizarre film but so well done. def will be checking out some of these other ones! love these videos!
Great choices! I have been a Junet fan for a long time and saw City of Lost Children in the 90's, Delicatessen would be another great option for his darker films. And speaking of messed up. Check out "Revenge for Jolly" probably the best rampage/revenge comedy ever made.
Loved Him till He did Alien Resurrection. One of the worst movies ever made. But love his earlier stuff.
Man, I've been waiting so long for you to sing the praises of Bunraku in a video, but if you have I've missed it. Gotta see that one if you can.
saw you were never really here in theater on a whim and it really effected me. great film.
Few things make me happier these days than coming home after a hard day's work and seeing a new video from you. Kudos.
Thanks for the list! To let you know, Killer Joe is not included in the Prime membership. At least not when I checked a minute ago.
I'm seeing it as included with prime. Are you outside of the U.S.?
This has probably been said, but I think u accidentally put A QUIET PLACE: II as coming out in 2010 instead of 2021. I really enjoy your videos and find your commentary on various genre''s to be really helpful. Thanks for your channel!
He claims Kiss the Girls also came out in 2010 but it was actually released in 1997. It makes this video almost completely unwatchable because I begin to doubt everything he says.
You are an amazing critic and reviewer. You knowledge is unbounding. I never miss your posts. Even the old ones are great for reference. Thank you Sir !
Hey Darren… great recommendation on “City of Lost Children!” Only suggestion for a future video is “Best Foreign Films that have been Dubbed” for all those who don’t like reading subtitles for an entire movie. People who want to see the movie but need a little help with the translation!
Thanks for all the great picks! My wife and I watch your content separately so we can pick stuff to watch that is acceptable for both of us while not boring either of us.
Very Respectfully,
Micah
Micah I’d focus on Nordic films to get a quality dub. Particularly Netflix’s more recent movie and shows from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, et al, because Scandinavians tend to speak very good English anyway, they often get the original actors to dub their own characters. Katla is a good example but there are plenty on there.
Darren thanks for the great recs! I plan on watching Kiss The Girls & You Were Never Really Here again and also Silence. 👍
These really not my type of flicks, but the few I've seen are really good #'s 10, 5 and 3. Your tastes are usually really good so I'm sure that the rest are great examples of this type.
I've seen all of these.... but they're pretty good picks. Thanks man. (I hurt my leg really bad a few years ago and was watching a lot of movies for while (its better now))
I just rewatched City of Lost Children a couple of weeks ago because I couldn’t get it out of my mind. It’s out there, but a fascinating watch.
Another film that I loved and can’t stop thinking about without bursting into laughter ( my humor can be twisted ) is Good Time with Robert Pattinson . Great, underrated film
New subscriber based on this video. Popped up in my recs. I'm ALWAYS looking for something actually GOOD to watch. Thanks!
Right on! I post new videos weekly 👍
City of Lost Children is AMAZING!!! 10 out of 10! I watched it in high school when it first came out. SOOO GOOD!
Great list, have you seen the sadness on shudder? That movie is all kinds of fu*ked up...I know for sure you will love it. 🤘😎👍
Dude stop. If it’s gory then I don’t wanna hear about it
Just a note about using a VPN to access Streaming Services. Amazon, Netflix, HBO are all blocking the ip ranges associated with VPNs. I work for an ISP and they blacklisted a /19 that was not used for VPNs and it took me 4 months to get them back in service. So a VPN may not permit you access. Just an FYI.
Omg I’m such a big fan of Faults! Amazing little indie movie. Seriously watch it!
If you are going to mention Jeunet you have to mention Delicatessen! That movie is super dark, yet hilarious at the same time. Total classic.
Great list!
I just watched Killer Joe because of this list of recommendations. Holy SHIT!!! The movie is so good. It's definitely in my top 10 of all time. Thanks for the recommendation!
First time I’ve ever seen City of Lost Children on a CZcams list. Brilliant visuals, but totally out there.
Man...cant believe I haven't seen a lot of these....im excited for tomorrow
Not sure if the fall is a prime freebie but it's one of my favorites. It's not a standard kids movie and it's beautifully shot.
I’ve seen a few of these films, I’ll have to check out Killer Joe and Jungle. Kinda surprised Neon Demon didn’t make the list…
Maybe there was room for only ONE 'bad movie made well'...?? ;-)
Neon Demon is great...🤯
Great review list!.. Dominique Pinon is great in everything.
Great recommendations, new sub here!
I love Terry Gilliam's films, but opening weekend there was a line around the block for 12 Monkeys, probably due to Brad Pitt and the attention A River Runs Through It brought him.
A theater nearby was screening City of Lost Children and the poster had a quote with high praise from Terry Gilliam.
City of Lost Children is cited as a major influence on the steampunk aesthetic.
I would pay to watch anything with Madeline Stowe in it. I watch 12 Monkeys every so often for several reasons, but she’s the main attraction.
I suspect City of Lost Children took from steampunk rather than influenced it.
Good older action movie free on Prime is “Two Days in the Valley”. Nice cast of characters too.
i love Black Swan, and Faults looks interesting have to check it out
You Were Never Really Here was amazing. The book it's based on is equally good. I think they did a great job adapting it to film.
okay i own city of lost children. saw it in the theater. loved amelie as well and delicatessen, but of all Jeunet's flicks i think the best one was A Very Long Engagement. your thoughts DVD??
I always get city lost children mixed up in my mind with Dark City,also darkly weird futuristic starting Rufus Sewell,Kiefer Sutherland....dark city was on tv actually recently ( I know) ....started to watch it thinking oh young Ron Perlman......wrong. both movies nicely done...
An unusual and sometime disturbing movie which has some comedic elements in it is "The Big Nothing" with Simon Pegg and David Schwimmer. it is a caper movie which goes awry. I liked because it was off the beaten track. Thanks Darren I do watch your videos to get movies to watch and enjoy your commentary.
A Leland Orser film, he doesn't get a lot of recognition. Nice to see!
Came here to actually make sure that everybody knows his name. He's a fantastic character actor! (Faults "that guy", for anyone that doesn't know)
Looks like my next two weekends are booked, thanks!
"The City of Lost Children" is fantastic. "You Were Never Really Here" is also well worth a view.
'Black Swan' isn't a 'bad movie, well made', it's a brilliant movie, well made. I think a lot people don't get that it's a horror movie about obsession and a descent into madness. It's also the very first 'wereswan' movie. I think it's Aronofsky's best movie to date.
Black Swan is a pretty good movie but it’s actually an adaptation of the far superior anime Perfect Blue. I can’t recommend it enough.
It's a good movie, but not Aronofsky's best
Excellent suggestions
City of Lost Children is an AMAZING movie. One of my all time favorites, I would absolutely recommend it to anyone that likes surrealist movies. The English voice acting is a little wonky, so if you happen to speak French that's the better option.
Kiss the Girls is from 1997 and that's mentioned in the audio ("mid nineties"). However, the graphic cited 2010 as the year.
Great several movies that look awesome to see 👍 TY
Hello Daz, silly question most likely. have you seen "Tale of Tales" 2015 What did you think ? Very odd and creepy, I loved it. If you have a link to one of your videos where you discuss it, could you reply with the link please. Would love to hear your take on it.
City of the Lost Children is a fantastic film. Delicatessen is a good one that’s just weird. It also has Dominique Pinon in it. Irreversible (2002) is pretty disturbing. I’m definitely going to check out this list. Thanks.
The list is awesome!
pretty spot-on list. I've seen all of these films except for Silence.
Just a note to people outside the US who want to see Faults. It's on Tubi right now. Thanks for the video!
I appreciated Matthew McConaughey in Killer Joe, love when an actor takes risk when it comes to roles. Underrated film that didn't get the attention it deserved. Also, Killer Joe actually started out as a Broadway play.
Paper Boy that’s sick
Hummm, can't find it on Prime...🤔
I’m not really into ‘disturbing’ movies but def a few on here I’ll checkout DVD!
Love watching your vids cuz of the recommendations, but Kiss the Girls is from 1997, not 2010. In case someone was trying to search for it or whatever. That doesn’t take away from how much I enjoy watching your stuff.
Nice list, as always. Gonna leave this here again, not sure if it got lost in other threads but I've mentioned this movie before- Excision. Think Ginger Snaps but much much darker (still a sense of black comedy in there though). Especially from a parental perspective, this is a very disturbing movie.
I liked Emile's performance more than Matthew's in Killer Joe. Great list.
I remember the white guy with glasses his performance in alien Resurrection was amazing.. and then the black guy with glasses is a great actor and a lot of smaller roles, he's great in the new resident evil show
Great list. Midsommar should be somewhere on this list though.
As a long time film buff (showing my age) who had a huge collection of laserdiscs because back then, it was the only way to best see the movie when it was not in a proper theater. Later I ran the forum at DVDtalk. Somehow I stumbled across your channel and subscribed some time ago. This list though, finally had me hitting the bell icon. This is one of the best movie channels for me, because I so much respect your take. My only problem, I have a spreadsheet of movies/shows to watch, and the list is getting much longer now and I am falling more and more behind. :) Thanks for the content!
My recommendation is Gaspar Noe’s “Irreversible”. It’s an amazing movie that is so incredibly disturbing I’ll never be able to watch it again. I highly recommend if you want a messed up movie. I believe it’s on Tubi right now. Good luck.
Hello Darren and film buffs.
2003 Park Chan-wook movie ‘Old Boy’ very f**ked up movie and highly recommended. One of those films that resonates with you… Darren thank you for another compelling list! I forgot about the William’s film…it is on tonight’s schedule. PS: you have GREAT hair 🌟❣️
He’s spoken about that movie in the past. Good movie btw.
It’s not free anymore but for $4 on Amazon you need to see “The Brand New Testament”. Darkly sardonic but also heartwarming as it is ridiculous. One of my favorite recent-ish films.
