Netflix movies and TV shows coming in October 2016
Netflix's October 2016 lineup includes Richard Linklater's 'Dazed and Confused'
Leaves are falling, thick sweaters are in fashion again and your neighbourhood bakery is already serving their best pumpkin flavoured delicacy. That only means that almost anybody will be spending less time outside their homes, especially considering that staying at home will be very entertaining as Netflix brings a good selection for everyone to catch this October.
Vanity Fair reveals some suggestions as to what can be watched on Netflix this October. For movies, there is a lot of interesting picks coming, among them is “Dazed and Confused” by Richard Linklater. This is considered to be one of Linklater’s most enduring film. This movie, which is set in 1976, looks into the lives of high-schoolers from Texas. This movie features of actors who were about to have their breakthrough at that point in time including Mila Jovovich, Matthew McConaughey and Ben Affleck who was the bully.

Another suggested movie is “Ghost Town” by David Keopp which stars Ricky Gervais as a dentist who after a near death experience, can now communicate with ghosts. This is considered to be one of the best romantic comedies of its era.
“Three Kings” is also showing and features Mark Wahlberg, Ice Cube and George Clooney before they were as huge as they are now. This drama is set in the Gulf War and was made by writer-director David O. Russell who is also the genius behind “Silver Linings Playbook” and “The Fighter.”
The Verge suggests “I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House” by Osgood Perkins which is described as a creepy and weird entry from the Toronto International Film Festival. A full list of what is coming and leaving Netflix is also shown on that post.
As for series, the second season of “iZombie” is coming which is a consequence of a new deal by CW and Netflix, even though CW will be launching its own digital platform soon, CWTV.com. For those who are currently into the sixth season of “American Horror Story,” they mind find the second season worth rewatching since a lot of cross season references are being made.
Other series that are coming include “The Grinder,” “Blac Mirror” season three, “Containment,” “Doctor Foster,” “Word Party,” and a lot more.
