Before we jump into the new week, let’s first take a look at everything that arrived on Netflix over the past seven days.

The big new original film of the week was Concrete Cowboy, starring Idris Elba and Stranger Things‘ Caleb McLaughlin as an estranged father and son who bond over Philadelphia’s urban cowboy subculture (it’s a real thing, look it up). Horror fans had a lot of treats in this haul, too, including a range of Child’s Play sequels, the first Leprechaun, James Wan’s Insidious and Sam Raimi production The Possession.

More of a comedy fan? No problem. If you haven’t already, check out Reese Witherspoon vehicle Legally Blonde, Ben Stiller superhero spoof Mystery Men, Adam Sandler/Kevin James flick I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry and Jim Carrey vehicle Yes Man. Looking for some romance? Then catch Brokeback Mountain, Friends with Benefits or The Time Traveler’s Wife. 

Moving on to the TV shows that debuted this week, Gaten Matarazzo (another Stranger Things alum) returned for a new season of Prank Encounters. Elsewhere, don’t miss British thriller The Serpent, featuring Doctor Who’s Jenna Coleman, or Worn Stories, a docuseries in which folks reveal the quirky and unlikely stories surrounding their clothes.
