Blair Witch is now on Netflix – Picture: Lionsgate

Happy July 4th weekend! Netflix has a bunch of new releases for you this week including some new drops over the weekend too. We’ll run through all the new movies and shows but we’ll also check in with what’s been trending in the Netflix US top 10s throughout the week too.

Thanks to the first of the month, we got a lot of new movies added as licensed titles from the likes of Warner Bros. and Sony come up for renewal. Next week is expected to have fewer titles (over 20 are currently scheduled) but that’s not to say there’s nothing decent to watch.

OK, let’s get into our top weekend picks, the full list and what’s been trending on Netflix this week.

What’s New on Netflix This Weekend

Blair Witch (2016)

Genre: Horror, Mystery, Thriller
Director: Adam Wingard
Cast: James Allen McCune, Callie Hernandez, Corbin Reid
Writer: Simon Barrett
Runtime: 89 min

Six years ago, Lionsgate rebooted The Blair Witch Project to a mixed reaction with the RottenTomatoes consensus saying at the time it was a “belated rehash of the original”.

The horror movie stuck to the original in having a tiny budget but unlike the original, it wasn’t able to live up to expectations.

Nevertheless, if you’re a horror fan, you should instantly add this one to your queue.

The Art of Incarceration (2021)

Genre: Documentary
Director: Alex Siddons
Cast: Jack Charles, Robby Wirramanda, Christopher Austin
Writer: Christopher Austin, Alex Siddons, Robby Wirramanda
Runtime: 81 min

If you’re looking for a new documentary that covers something almost certainly not a concern of your day-to-day life, then this one should definitely be on your list.

“At the Fulham Correctional Centre, incarcerated Aboriginal artists examine the cycle of imprisonment as they prepare for an upcoming exhibition.”

This is an interesting title for Netflix nerds in the sense that it’s not listed or treated as a Netflix Original despite the fact that Netflix seemingly is handling the promotion of the documentary with the upload of the trailer on its own YouTube channel.

Oh My Baby (Season 1)

Genre: Drama, Romance
Cast: Jang Na-ra, Ko Jun, Park Byung-eun, Jung Gun-joo, Kim Hye-ok, Cho Hee-bong
Runtime: 60 min

Adding to the already bulging collection of K-dramas on Netflix is this one that comes from Studio Dragon and Studio & New. It first aired on tvN in 2020 but now arrives on Netflix in full.

Here’s what you can expect:

“On the brink of 40 and single, a magazine editor aims to bypass marriage and skip ahead to the baby and happiness part of her story.”

All sixteen episodes of Oh My Baby are now streaming on Netflix.
