Here’s What’s New On Netflix This Month

What would you like this month on Netflix? Is it zombies? Crime thrillers? Perhaps some drug infused debauchery? I know…fart jokes! Yes! Everyone likes fart jokes. What if I told you you could have it all?

This September on Netflix, we’re getting a plethora of new TV shows and movies to make up for all the titles that just departed, and there’s a little something for everyone.

Movies

A Simple Plan (Sept. 1)

In the same vein as Fargo, where money makes men go crazy, comes this story about brothers (Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton) who find a bundle of cash. Cue paranoia, murder and a whole host of other complications. Sam Raimi directed this thriller that will certainly make you think twice about who you tell when you won the lottery.

Silver Linings Playbook (Sept. 16)

David O. Russell‘s drama about a damaged school teacher that moves back in with his parents was nominated for a ton of Academy Awards and even netted a best lead actress statue for Jennifer Lawrence. If you like quirky love stories, dramas about people with bipolar disorder, or dancing competitions, then this is for you. Also, Robert De Niro and Chris Tucker turn in exemplary performances.

Bad Grandpa (Sept. 27)

It may feel like a 90-minute Jackass sketch, but Johnny Knoxville and writer-directors Jeff Tremaine and Spike Jonze pack enough funny gags, skits and toilet humor to make the time breeze on by. Unlike most Jackass films and shows, though, there’s actually a narrative!

Killing Them Softly (Sept. 30)

Writer-director Andrew Dominik only makes a film every six years or so and his first two features, Chopper and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, were phenomenal (seriously, go watch Chopper right now). Killing Them Softly is his third feature, and it stars Brad Pitt as a hitman who is tasked to find a couple stick-up kids who robbed a card game. James Gandolfini is also fantastic as an aging, alcoholic assassin.

TV Shows

Californication – Seasons 1-7 

In this art-imitating-life TV series, a sexaholic-alcoholic writer (David Duchovny) tries to repair the wounds in his life while creating new ones. All seven seasons of this show are streaming this month.

The Blacklist – Season 1 (Sept. 7) 

James Spader is turning in another fine TV performance on The Blacklist, the story of a former spook who turns himself in to the FBI and helps them catch some of the baddest people on the planet. Word is that Netflix paid quite a hefty price to feature this on their streaming service, so don’t make them regret it!

The Walking Dead – Season 4 (Sept. 29)

Are you ready for the fifth season premiere of The Walking Dead on October 12th? If you missed any episodes from the last season then you have no idea what happened with The — well…I won’t spoil it for you because now you get to see the fourth season in all its glory.
