Looking for something new to watch this weekend? Netflix’s newest original film, Tall Girl, is now available. Here are five great movies to watch.

Netflix has a bunch of new arrivals from the week and over the weekend that will keep you entertained. It’s can be overwhelming to look through a full list of releases, so here are the five top movies to check out this weekend, including the newest rom-com Tall Girl, the horror We Have Always Lived in the Castle, and much more.

5. Hello, Privilege. It’s Me, Chelsea

Chelsea Handler takes you inside the world of white privilege. We know it exists but many white people won’t want to admit it. However, Chelsea doesn’t just look at what white privilege is but how it’s helped her career. Within 64 minutes, you’ll be taken into what white privilege has done to American culture.

4. Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D

While it’s not the greatest of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies, this one is leaving Netflix next week so this is going to be the last weekend to check it out—or watch it again.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D follows the original movie when the people of Newt, Texas burn down the Sawyer farmhouse. The entire Sawyer family is almost wiped out, except for young Edit Rose Sawyer, who is raised by Gavin and Arlene Miller. You know how that’s going to work out when we pick up the series of events decades later, right?

3. We Have Always Lived in the Castle

If you loved The Haunting of Hill House then you’re going to want to check out We Have Always Lived in the Castle. The movie is an adaptation of the book by Shirley Jackson (the author of The Haunting of Hill House), and it stars American Horror Story‘s Taissa Farmiga and Avengers‘ Sebastian Stan.

The movie starts with a murder mystery but soon turns into something more terrifying. Two isolated sisters and their uncle are thrown off by the arrival of a cousin who looks very much like their deceased father.

2. Eat Pray Love

If you love a good old romantic comedy, then it’s all about Eat Pray Love, which arrived on Netflix earlier this week. Julia roberts stars as Liz Gilbert, a woman who believes she had everything she’s ever wanted. However, when her husband divorces her, she finds herself at a crossroads in life.

Liz realizes she never really knew what she wanted. Now it’s time to head out on a journey of self-discovery, which takes her across countries such as Bali, India, and Italy.

1. Tall Girl

There’s only one movie that could go to the top of this list. It’s all about the newest coming-of-age Netflix original movie. Tall Girl dropped on the service on Friday and is a must for all.

Jodi is the tallest girl in her school, something that she’s always been insecure about. When a foreign exchange student transfers to the school, she finds someone who is taller than her and may help her feel comfortable in her own skin, but that also leads to her learning far more about who she is and what she wants from life.
