October will be another busy month for Netflix movie departures, and below, we’ve listed ten great movies you need to watch before they depart the US library. 

Here, you can find our ongoing list of all the movies and series set to depart the streamer throughout October 2024. We’ve covered you for all the remaining titles, leaving in September 2024 here. As a quick note, we list titles for the actual day of removal. If you want to watch any movie leaving on, your last full day to watch will be September 30th.


The Conjuring & The Conjuring 2 (2013-2016)

Leaving Netflix: October 1st, 2024

Since The Conjuring was released in 2013, no horror movie franchise has made more money at the box office than The Conjuring Universe. If it weren’t for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, then The Conjuring Universe would likely be history’s most successful cinematic universe.

The Conjuring and The Conjuring 2 leaving means they join the third entry, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It, which left at the start of September. This means that the only movies from The Conjuring Universe left on Netflix are Annabelle and The Nun.

We’d expect to see The Conjuring movies to make a return to Netflix shortly.


Conan the Barbarian (1982)

Leaving Netflix: October 1st, 2024

Before becoming the invincible juggernaut that was the Terminator, Arnie made a name for himself as a different destroyer, Conan the Barbarian. Robert E. Howard’s beloved warrior was brought to life by the hulking behemoth of Arnie and one of the most underrated roles of his long career.

Conan, a mighty warrior and the last of his people, seeks revenge against the snake cult responsible for his people’s genocide.


Flushed Away (2006)

Leaving Netflix: October 1st, 2024

Flushed Away Movies To Watch On Netflix Before They Depart At The End Of September 2024

Picture: Flushed Away – Dreamworks Animation

From Logan, aka Wolverine, to Roddy St. James, Hugh Jackman’s performance shows that he had a lot of fun voicing the loveable rodent. It’s an underrated title of the Dreamworks collection that lots of Gen Z kids would have grown up watching. Pampered pet rat Roddy is flushed down the toilet of his luxurious Kensington home. Lost in the sewers of London, he befriends Rita, a sewer rat, and enlists her help to get him home. Given we’ve got a brand new Aardman animation movie to look forward to shortly on Netflix (we’re talking about the new Wallace & Gromit film), it’s a perfect time to revisit. 


Hacksaw Ridge (2016)

Leaving Netflix: October 1st, 2024

One of the most inspirational stories of World War 2 is the exploits of Desmond T. Doss, whose actions in the Battle of Okinawa were so heroic and unbelievable that the story was altered to make it more believable for the audience. Garfield puts in an incredible performance as the soft-spoken Doss. Desmond T. Doss, a devout Christian, and conscientious objector joins the Army as a medic during World War 2. From the barracks to the battle of Okinawa, Doss’s trials and tribulations don’t deter him from carrying out his heroics at the battle of Okinawa and receiving the Medal of Honor without firing a single shot. Featuring stunning set pieces and some horrifying imagery, this is an easy must-watch pick. 


Hunt for the Wilderpeople (2016)

Leaving Netflix: October 1st, 2024

Dennison would go on to feature in Netflix’s Christmas movie sequel, The Christmas Chronicles 2

Transitioning from action movies to comedies, the 90s was another busy decade for Arnie. Having worked with Danny DeVito in Twins, the pair reunited to work on Junior, directed by Ghobusters’ Ivan Reitman.

The Lego Movie (2014)

Leaving Netflix: October 1st, 2024

The Lego Movie was a huge hit with families all over the world and helped spawn its fun spin-off sequel, Lego Batman. Before Phase 4 of the MCU, The Lego Movie was the most ambitious multiverse story.

1994 was filled with incredible films, and one of the best is the cult classic Natural Born Killers, which Quentin Tarantino initially wrote before being adapted by director Oliver Stone. 

Micky and Mallory Wilson Knox leave a bloodied trail in their wake as they rampage across America, killing nearly everyone they meet. Leaving only one survivor behind to tell their stories, they quickly become a media sensation. This movie came to Netflix as part of the Milestone Movie Collection, and most of those titles have now departed. 


Pokémon Detective Pikachu (2019)

Leaving Netflix: October 1st, 2024

Twenty-three years after the first Pokémon game was released, audiences finally saw live-action Pokémon in theatres for the first. It is a charming and fun adaptation of one of the best Pokémon spin-offs, with Ryan Reynolds voicing an adorably chunky and fluffy Pikachu.

When his father goes missing, aspiring Pokémon trainer Tim searches for him but finds his father’s Pokémon partner, Pikachu. Mysteriously, Tim can understand Pikachu, and together, they search for Tim’s father and attempt to solve the mystery of his last case.
