NETFLIX Horror Films Streaming in September 2017

Published

on

While we wait for Netflix to reveal what will hopefully be a massive October slate, their streaming slate for September 2017 is pretty disappointing, outside of them releasing two original productions: Tucker & Dale vs Evil director’s The Omen-inspired horror comedy Little Evil and the Stephen King adaptation of Gerald’s Game. September first kicks off, however, will a lot of shark movies…

AVAILABLE SEPTEMBER 1

Deep Blue Sea

Action-packed terror! “Bigger, better and more frightening than JAWS” – WKDM Radio. All-star cast includes Oscar and Golden Globe-nominee Samuel L. Jackson (“A Time to Kill,” “Pulp Fiction”), Saffron Burrows (“Celebrity,” “Wing Commander”), LL Cool J (“In the House”), Thomas Jane (“The Thin Red Line”) and Michael Rapaport (“Cop Land”). A group of scientists create genetically altered sharks which are bigger, smarter, faster and meaner. After a big storm damages their remote research facility, they must fight for their lives as the sharks hunt them down, one by one. Directed by Renny Harlin (“Die Hard 2”).


Jaws

Directed by Academy Award® winner Steven Spielberg, Jaws set the standard for edge-of-your seat suspense, quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon and forever changing the way audiences experience movies. When the seaside community of Amity finds itself under attack by a dangerous great white shark, the town’s chief of police (Roy Scheider), a young marine biologist (Richard Dreyfuss) and a grizzled shark hunter (Robert Shaw) embark on a desperate quest to destroy the beast before it strikes again. Featuring an unforgettable score that evokes pure terror, Jaws remains one of the most influential and gripping adventures in motion picture history.


Jaws 2

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water! The beach-goers of Amity are threatened again by a giant, man-eating shark in this thrilling sequel to Spielberg’s masterpiece! When signs of a new man-eater begin to wash up, Police Chief Brody must convince the town of the danger and kill the monster. Oscar nominee Roy Scheider returns along with the famous John Williams score.


Jaws 3

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water… Swimmers are terrorized when Florida’s Sea World captures a young Great White shark, angering its 35-foot mother! Quaid plays Michael, son of police chief Brody from the first two films, who must face off with the shark. Also starring Lea Thompson and Academy Award winner Louis Gossett.


Jaws: The Revenge

This time–it’s personal. The Jaws saga reaches its conclusion in this thrilling fourth and final installment as the wife of police chief Brody is followed to the Bahamas by a Great White. As the shark targets her family she becomes determined to protect them and destroy the monster! Starring Lorraine Gary and Oscar-winner Michael Caine.


Little Evil — NETFLIX ORIGINAL FILM

Netflix as they’ll be giving birth to the son of Satan on September 1, 2017, with the horror comedy Little Evil.

Adam Scott stars in as Gary (Scott), who just married Samantha (Evangeline Lilly) only to find out that her 6-year-old son (Owen Atlas) is the Antichrist. It’s like if The Omen were a comedy.

The film was written and directed by Eli Craig, who was behind the cult horror comedy Tucker & Dale vs. Evil!

Donald Faison and Chris D’EliaBrad Williams, Bridget Everett, Clancy Brown, Marcus Terrell Smith and Tyler Labine also star in Little Evil.


AVAILABLE SEPTEMBER 8

The Walking Dead: Season 7

Picking up immediately after the thrilling cliff hanger, Negan forces Rick and the group to fall under his will, brutally convincing them to live under his rules. To prevent further bloodshed, Rick genuinely believes they can make life under Negan, however terrible, work. But he soon learns that Negan can’t be reasoned with and they must prepare to go to war now. Victory will require more than Alexandria, and Rick will need to convince their new allies from the Kingdom and Hilltop to band together with the common goal of taking down Negan and his army.


AVAILABLE SEPTEMBER 29

Gerald’s Game — NETFLIX ORIGINAL FILM

This is the year of the King. Even though the adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower was a disappointment, it looks as if IT is going to be a nightmare, not to mention we still have Netflix’s Gerald’s Game to look forward to.

We now have the first ever shot from the film, directed by up-and-coming horror icon Mike Flanagan, who was behind Netflix’s Hush, not to mention Ouija: Origin of Eviland Oculus, Before I Wake and Absentia.

It will be premiering at the upcoming Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas.

In the film, based on King’s 1992 novel, “A woman accidentally kills her husband after being handcuffed to a bed, leaving her unable to free herself. As time passes and she realizes that rescue is an all but hopeless thought, she begins to slip into insanity, the voices in her head manifesting into visions.”

Here’s what King recently tweeted after seeing a rough cut:

Horrifying, hypnotic, terrific. It’s gonna freak you out.

Flanagan and Jeff Howard adapted the novel. The cast includes Carla Gugino, Henry Thomas, Bruce Greenwood, and Kate Siegel.
