Top 10 Netflix Series to Binge Watch in 2019

23/10/201929/07/2019 by PickyTop

If you are looking for the Top 10 Netflix series interesting enough to binge-watch this weekend, you are in the right place.
It’s challenging to choose something good to watch, especially from live streaming services like Netflix while going through countless reviews on IMDb.
So, to make your life easier (and hopefully save your time),
I’ve created the list of best Netflix shows for you to choose from and not necessarily released in 2019, some shows in the list are released in 2018 while some in 2017.
My favorite is number 5! What’s yours?
Here are my favorite top 10 Netflix series 2019 list:

10. Maniac

IT’S MULTI-REALITY BRAIN MAGIC SHIT

Plot-
Annie Landsberg and Owen Milgrim are one of many participants drawn into the later phases of a secret pharmaceutical experiment.
Every participant has a different purpose behind taking part in the test — she has depression and is aimless, but focused on broken relationships with her mom and sister.
While he has been suffering from schizophrenia for a long time.
At early stages, as an essential treatment, experimenters give subjects pills which, the inventor states that it can fix anything about the psyche.
It draws Annie, Owen, and 10 different subjects into a three-day drug trial test and they’re told that it will take care of most their issues, with no complications or symptoms.
Shockingly, things don’t go as arranged.
My review-
This one of the best drama Netflix series was rather exceptional in bringing on a funny 80s classy fantasy of retro-futurism.
Essentially, the atmosphere made the show.
Every one has been different. There were some special scenes, but some would gradually take you out of the show’s world.
Emma and Jonah performed well in the series. In her hallucinations, Emma easily moves through the different characters she plays.
Released in 2018, but still one of the best Netflix original series holding its position in 2019.

09.Stranger things

show manages to offer great nostalgic entertainment for people who grew up in the early to mid-1980s and love movies like E.T., Poltergeist, and other classics.

Plot-
Joyce Byers, who lives in a tiny Indiana town in 1983, inspired by a period when tales of science fiction entertained audiences.
When Joyce’s 12-year-old son, Will, goes missing, she launches an investigation into his disappearance with local police authorities.
They discover a series of uncommon mysteries as they search for answers, involving secret government experiments, unsettling supernatural entities, and a strange little girl.
My review-
Stranger Things has tons of mystery with a blend of 90s nostalgia and horror-humor genre.
The direction of the plot and it’s playing out a clear and concise narrative with a lot of unanswered questions and then telling all of its pieces, giving us enough clues to make feel satisfied, but holding us back enough to keep the ball rolling.
Its third season is about to be released soon now released four years ago, but this TV series still holds the ninth position in our list.

08.Peaky Blinders

rich and convincing Netflix TV show of strangely high caliber. A lavish treat for grown-up watchers

Plot-
England is a blend of sadness and pleasure in 1919 in the consequence of the First World War.
Returning soldiers, communists, and groups of hoodlums are battling for survival in a country shaken by financial trouble.
A standout amongst the most dominant gangs of the time is the Peaky Blinders, kept running by returning war legend Thomas Shelby and his family.
Thomas has greater goals than running the streets.
At the point when a case of firearms disappears,
He perceives a chance to progress in the world since wrongdoings may pay, however authentic business pays better.
Attempting to free Britain of its criminals is Inspector Chester Campbell, who lands from Belfast to accomplish that aim, and things go bad between two of them.
My review-
Personally, I think this show is best series to watch on Netflix, which was released in 2014 on BBC Two, but still holds the eighth spot in our best TV shows countdown.
Peaky Blinders’ very first scenes, let watchers know they’re in for a feast, as serious-faced Shelby marches through the dull avenues of mid-twentieth century Birmingham on a black horse.
A thought comes to mind,
Does he want to murder someone?
Is he looking for a rival or his love? Is he about to wreak havoc on what looks like a rough urban area?
Nope. He’s doing some superstitious activity, paying to have a spell cast on his horse so he’ll win the horse-race tomorrow.
Does our protagonist Shelby really believe this spell will make his horse a winner? Nah. He just wants to attract more betting customers towards his horse.
Peaky Blinders is loaded with scenes like this, which zigs when you expect something and take the drama to a sudden new way.

07.When they see us

strikes the right chord, portraying the relentlessness of a Not-so-Perfect justice system

Plot-
When They See Us is a TV Netflix drama series of how police capture five young men, indicted they arrest them and for raping and,
nearly pounding the life out of Trisha Meili–“the Central Park jogger”–a young white lady Cops discover her ambushed body that same night these people are busted.
All the underlying signs point to a single attacker having dragged her away from the way into the bushes & there is little evidence against those people.
Yet, when the leader of the DA’s sex wrongdoings unit, Linda Fairstein, hears that they have captured some people somewhere else in the park, a new narrative began to frame.
Police names their night as frenzy, the young men as creatures moving in a pack, hellbent on killing people.
Similarly, as with the early foundation of the young men’s ordinariness, Fairstein and her team are never expressly marked as a racist.
Their preference is basically implanted in each supposition, an inferred understanding among all the white grown-ups that the young men are the undeniable suspects, that they must have done it.
Fairstein inhales convictions like air and show rotates around it.
My review-
With When They See Us, Director is telling an important story, bringing one of New York City’s most infamous cases of wrongful conviction to life.
The four-episode series of DuVernay is a darkly-filmed story that sometimes feels like a drama in the courtroom and alternates expertly between tense, moving and sometimes lighter-hearted moments.

06.The Umbrella Academy

The story many mysteries and conflict made it highly engaging, with many unexpected turns

Plot-
On one day in 1989, 43 newborn children were mysteriously born at random, to unconnected ladies who hinted at no signs of pregnancy before.
Seven of them are in the foster home of billionaire Sir Reginald Hargreaves, who makes the Umbrella Academy and prepares his “children” to save the world.
During their adolescent years, however, the family breaks and the group scatters.
Quick forward to the present, when the six living individuals from the team rejoin upon the news of Hargreaves’ passing.
They cooperate to tackle a puzzle encompassing their dad’s mysterious death.
But their different personalities and abilities again pull the already estranged family apart, and a global apocalypse is another imminent threat.
The series, based on the collection of comic books made and written by My Chemical Romance lead artist Gerard Way.
My review-
The Umbrella Academy holds the sixth position in our Top 10 Netflix series for a specific reason and that in one word is “Twist”
As someone who likes superhero films, but doesn’t read the comics, this show was (almost) all I hoped for.
Yes, it’s predictable, and yes, it’s comparable to a lot of other superhero TV series playing out there.
However, I will say two twists took me by full surprise for every twist I predicted. It’s been an action-packed, wacky, funny, and mysterious, and, just straight-up weird Netflix show.
Still, I was eagerly awaiting the next episode for answers to the curious questions that after each new episode seemed to pile up.

05.The Haunting of Hill House

A good dash of traditional horror & mystery

Plot-
Dr. James Montague is studying paranormal aspects scientifically. His latest project is researching the bleak Hill House — whose residents have encountered morbid and often untimely deaths over the 80 years since it was built.
He intends to collect individuals who have had psychic experiences for his research;
Two people agree, a young girl who has been taking care of her invalid mom over the past several years, and Theodora, a lively artist.
Luke, the son of Hill House’s present owner, accompanies Dr. Montague and an eccentric and elderly couple — a Mr. and Mrs. Dudley — who serve the house as caretakers.
The group initially has a good enough time for themselves with the food, huge house, and its surrounding woods. But things go catastrophically wrong quickly.
My review-
The only horror genre in our top 10 Netflix TV series list worth mentioning.
It requires only one hour, potentially two, to ping pong between dual timelines — flashback mode and present time — to get a sense of what’s really going on here.
Speaking of horror, viewers should come for the jump scares and varying bits of creepiness.
Insects crawling out of mouth corpses drastically rising from slabs, spirits ranging from fairly young stuff to ancient crones rotted, suddenly gaping mouths and melting faces — all present and accounted for.

04.Sex Education

light-hearted comedy if you love movies like american pie

Plot-
Socially awkward high school student Otis may not have much knowledge in the lovemaking department.
But he gets good guidance on the topic in his personal sex-ed course living with mom Jean, who is a sex therapist.
Being surrounded by manuals, videos and tediously open conversations about sex, Otis becomes an unwilling expert on the subject.
When his classmates learn about his home life, Otis uses his insider knowledge to improve his status at school.
So he teams up with whip-smart bad girl Maeve Wiley to set up a clinic for underground sex therapy to figure out how to deal with the issues of their classmates.
But through his teenage sexuality research, Otis understands he might need some of his treatment.
My review-
I had one big problem with sex education: director did not display a British secondary school as it was supposed to be in sex education.
It feels more like an American high school, but the plot is set to be in Britain.
Nevertheless, The mixture of sexual humor and the friendliness of the show reflects the tradition of likewise mixed teen comedies from American Pie to Netflix’s Big Mouth.
Unlike by your expectations, this show is focused foremost, on relationships between parents and children, best friends, older and younger generations, and young individuals who fall in love and out of love.
Overall, good and lighthearted original drama series if you love teen comedy

03.Russian Doll

twisted it into something darker, and at least makes you think that's what you are watching.

Plot-
A young lady named Nadia is on a visit to be a guest at a party.
But she is caught in a strange time loop because she repeatedly attends the same event and dies every time at night — only to wake up uninjured the next day as if nothing had happened.
Nadia attempts to find out what’s going on with her and discovers,
Then she discovers that she has to appreciate her own life enough to want to save someone else’s, and Alan (who is also stuck in the loop with her) has to do the same.
Together they are repeating her birthday party and their death after-party in a time-loop, in an endless repeat of the same day.
Both at first refuse to accept their new reality: Her friends & family beg her to be acknowledged, but she doesn’t do it, she does whatever she wants.
As she tries to find a way out of this strange time loop, the situation loop becomes more complicated.
My review-
Russian Doll may be the best thing that Netflix has ever made,
It skillfully tackles some heavy subjects with a proper blend of shades in humor & emotions.
While watching this web series you’ll likely go from stomach aching laughter to tears of very relatable heartbreak in every episode.
You could attempt to kick back and appreciate the zippy jokes and the agonizingly hip soundtrack.
Regarding my opinion, Russian Doll is the best Netflix original series 2019.

02.Mindhunter

If you are interested in behaviour, psychology and how the criminal mind thinks then I highly recommend watching this

Plot-
FBI agents Holden Ford (Jonathan Groff) and Bill Tench (Holt McCallany) travel around the U.S. to interview and monitor serial killers.
They are eventually joined by Wendy Carr (Anna Torv), a Boston University psychology teacher who helps them create a system to categorize the murderers and probably predict future behaviors.
Interviewing criminals who are known serial killers by the investigators to know how they think and profile them in such a manner that they will describe a serial killer in the future.
This is their primary goal and they go about teaching about these serial killers to the others in the nation.
Both of them begin to profile them by speaking to them in the prisons in which they are being kept.
My review-
The show gradually evolves and develops for you, and by exploring the psychology they have also beautifully shown how the Quantico agents coin the word “serial killers” for the very first time.
It’s worth watching, Mindhunter is one of the most artistic, meaningful series on Netflix.
It has none of the cheap, dull quality of the many characteristics of the streaming service, nor does it deal with the traveling, wheel-spinning storytelling of some famous names that are more appropriate as premises than real shows.
It works well as an intense, intellectual crime procedural and it do have all qualities to be on the top spot of this Top 10 list but there is an another show to hold the title for best Netflix Original series.

01.Better Call Saul

Breaking Bad-Walter White & Jesse+New Characters+Humor=Better Call Saul

Plot-
Better Call Saul pursues the life of the character Saul Goodman starting around six years before the events of Breaking Bad.
In 2002, Goodman, known as James McGill, is an ex-conman attempting to pursue a genuine profession as a hopeful legal counselor in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
He tries to turn into a partner in the law office in which his more established brother Chuck McGill is a senior accomplice.
Jimmy’s (Saul’s) work is as often as possible dominated by his past reputation of a con man, and he battles to figure out how to substantiate himself,
Even with the help of another co-worker in the firm, Kim Wexler, with whom he additionally turns out to be romantically involved.
In the meantime, Jimmy every now and again deals with Chuck, who professes to have a skin disease,
A condition that makes him physically sick within the sight of anything with an electrical segment and has made him take an all-inclusive leave from his firm and customary law work.
Mixed within Saul’s activities are the earlier chronicles of other Breaking Bad characters, including
Mike Ehrmantraut, an ex-cop who winds up associated with illicit drugs dealing plans,
and drug lords like Hector Salamanca and Gus Fring, who distribute drugs illegally brought to the territory from Mexico.
My review-
This choice on the no.1 spot in our top 10 Netflix series list was easy for me and I find it very hard exactly what to say about this another Vince Gilligan’s masterpiece
If you are a fan of super-hit Breaking Bad, you surely should not miss Better Call Saul.
It follows the same style of storytelling, despite being a spin-off, it stands out with a unique story-line which provides the origin stories of all the people that orbited Walter White.

Some honorable mentions,

If you liked the above list which I provided after watching each and every episode of them just to ease your selection,
Please let me know in the comment section which one is your favorite and which one you will watch.

Top 10 Best Ghost Movies of All Time

13/10/201913/06/2019 by PickyTop

This post is about the top 10 ghost movies of all time are that are beyond cheap jump scares and boring plot.
I’m a regular horror film fan. I’ve seen all the stupidest supernatural movies ever made, even those so-called scariest movies of all time.
I used to watch them test my courage; Unfortunately, none of those flicks ever frightened me.
Nowadays, horror films are complete jokes.
Relying on jump scares to distract you from the lack of quality storytelling, shallow acting, and dialogue so bad you’d think it was a high school goer composing a fan-fiction for English class.
If you are planning to watch some new supernatural horror this weekend and are confused,
Check out my researched list of scariest top 10 ghost movies:

10. Conjuring 2(2016)

Scare intensity-5/10
Quality of movie-6.5/10
Conjuring 2 is an old school horror based on real-life true incident.
The plot goes like,
A single mother with distressed children, poor, no dad, helpless and downright depressing lives in Enfield London witnesses an evil spirit in their house.
They contact paranormal investigators couple, Ed and Lorraine Warren to help them.
Later it is revealed that the spirit of the old man is manipulated by a demon which is more powerful and wants something more sinister from Lorraine.
The same demonic entity in Conjuring-2 has appeared in a prequel movie from the franchise released recently as The Nun (2018) but, the level of scariness Conjuring-2 offered is far superior.
Director James Wan brings here a masterpiece which surely deserves a spot in top 10 horror movies of all time in Hollywood among modern films.

09. A Tale of Two Sisters(2003)-Korean movie

Scare intensity-6.5/10
Quality of movie-6.5/10
A tale of two sisters is loosely based on a well-known Korean ghost story.
What did I love about this film?
Unlike Hollywood horror is it’s the use of mind-fucks and delightful symbolism with flawless planning and imagery.
There is no doubt this is a good film and an example of what the Korean horror genre can do.
The starting passes an impression of a slow and simple movie, which gives you a chance to think about what and when it will occur.
At some point, this inclination sort of vanish as the time passes by and you get interested in the story.
After some time, it reaches half of the film and very little of the storyline explanation, leaving you curious because of its strange narrative.
The climax arrives, and you stay involved, needing to know increasingly more of Sumi and Suyeon’s (both sisters) history.
All these narration results in a very well-balanced plot without overusing horror movie methods such as jump scares or splatter.
This direction builds up the movie in a perfect joint with the bold dialogues of Sumi’s character and personality changes according to whom she’s interacting with, resulting in good chemistry that leaves you questioned until the last minute.

08. Poltergeist trilogy (1982,1986,1988)

Scare intensity-5/10
Quality of movie-7.5/10
What can you say about the film series that itself is cursed while filming.
Known as the Poltergeist Curse is a scourge that is linked to this horror film series Poltergeist.
In many variants of the urban legend, all the cast members passed, while in others can link four deaths to the curse.
In reality, just four of the actors died, two passed on startlingly, while the other two died because of natural reasons.
There is a fact that unusual events occurred during the shooting of the three movies. It is uncertain that this means the curse is true, or it is just a pure coincidence.
Speaking about the plot, a poltergeist in folklore is a noisy and deadly (but usually mischievous, not wicked) spirit held as responsible for unexplained noises and movement of objects within a home.
In all three film series, each recounts an episode in the lives of the Freelings, and horrific events they encounter with the supernatural.
No doubt even today in 2019, this old horror classic has to be included on the 8th spot in our list of Top 10 ghost movies of all time because considering past standards, it was ahead of its time.

07. Tumbbad (2018)-Indian movie

Scare intensity-7/10
Quality of movie-9/10
The most original story I have seen in a movie for quite a while, not particularly horror genre but more like a psychological mystery.
Writers set the movie during the latter part of British India and the period setting adds a visual aspect of validness to the story.
Story goes like,
A catastrophe affects young boy named Vinayak, his life-threatening encounter with a cursed cannibal old lady (his house Imprisoned grandmother) who knows the way to get buried treasure sets him on the path of greed.
He tries to investigate the local legend of a god-turned-demon named Hastar and his gold medallions but stopped by his mother by swearing.
Now grown-up Vinayak (after his mother passes) becomes obsessed with uncovering the treasure.
Gradually, his obsession turns him into a cold-blooded opportunist.
Why I loved this movie ?
Some moments in the film are grotesque, but you cannot miss the details they have captured meticulously.
The scenes on the screen are remarkably very impressive.
From the fascinating rain-soaked outdoors to the old ancestral home that hides over one disturbing mystery, screening shots are like artistic masterpiece.
Kudos to Director and creative team for making this movie which I think is the finest and best horror movies of all time in Bollywood (Indian film industry).
Various scenes in the film’s latter half unfold in a live womb (yes) of earth and these portions are especially impressive for the sheer creative mind and imagination on display.
The ending will leave you in a state of sadness & dejection with a lesson on greed.

06. The Blair Witch Project(1999)

Scare intensity-7.5/10
Quality of movie-7/10
October 1994, three film making students disappear in the forested areas close Burkittsville, Maryland while shooting a documentary.
One year later, someone finds their recording.
The rest of the 79 minutes of the Blair Witch Project is “removed” from that recording, all which is shot by them with handheld camcorders and a 16 mm camera.
The clips go like, after talking to a few people of local people about the Blair Witch, they go into the nearby woods to get a film of areas related to the story (The story includes a witch who steals and executes the two kids and grown-ups).
They get lost, and every night horrendous things occur. Sludge showing up on their camp.
At that point, Josh vanishes and a heap of twigs is “delivered” which contains what they believe to be a part of his body.
Finally, the two surviving filmmakers stumble (at night) upon a lonely, rundown house from which exhales groaning and shouting. They rush to explore the uncertain sounds.
Then, the camera falls to the ground and the credit roll.
While watching the movie you will feel in a more continuous state of anxiety and fear with a heavy heart beating moments between the scenes.
This movie had set a new standard for camcorder movies which inspired other classics like Paranormal Activity series (2007-present).
But still, it is one of the most scariest ghost movies by diminishing the concept of compulsively including a scary-faced demon or spirit.

05. The Exorcist (1973)

Scare intensity-6.5/10
Quality of movie-9.5/10
Instead, to reveal the story, I’ll go with the execution of direction and play of this film.
You have to see the Exorcist a couple of times to understand the personas, get all the dialogue between them, and value the art and attention to the direction.
The more you see this movie the frightening it gets, because the more you watch, the more you can comprehend what’s happening.
The movie stands up well to this day in 2019 because the director created and maintained an atmosphere of dreamy bitterness even in the quiet scenes, filled by scenes of extraordinary mental frightfulness and an absolute killer sound background that remains unsurpassed to this day.
Scenes never truly resolve or end as you expect that they should.
No wonder, this classic still manages to scare us and served as a benchmark among the Hollywood horror movies that were released after it.

04. Ring(1998)-Japanese movie

Scare intensity-5/10
Quality of movie-7/10
Before you say anything, let me be clear.
Here, we are not making a comparison between Western and Japanese ghosts.
Comparing with its Hollywood remake movie the Ring, I don’t think the original Japanese version is that terrifying.
Yet, it builds a genuinely good sense of fear and is very deep in its storytelling.
As a cinematic entity, ‘The Ghost’ in the Western cinema has changed for years from its Asian counterparts in the way filmmakers choose scare you.
Ghosts in Western films pop out at you in creating a gotcha moment which is scary (for 2 seconds).
In days before this fashion, ghosts were unaware and shy to show themselves and it was more like tension built up through the story.
Filmmakers ditched this method in favor of scary CGI faced, ass-kicking ghosts.
Speaking about the story goes it goes like:
Journalist Reiko’s niece is discovered dead alongside three friends after viewing a supposedly cursed videotape, and she decides to investigate.
Alongside her ex, Ryuji, Reiko finds the tape, watches it and gets a telephone call advising her she’ll die in seven days.
Determined to understand the curse, Reiko and Ryuji find the video’s history and try to resolve an old murder that could break the spell.

03. The Witch(2015)

Quality of movie-9.5/10
Earning the third spot in our Top 10 ghost movies list, The Witch is one of that movie-going horror experience which you will love.
Rather than relying on jump scares, too chiller graphics or the shabby adrenaline rush, this film is like being on a roller coaster.
Director Eggers in his remarkable debut picked up the movie-watchers and transported them to 1630s New England.
The Witch takes as much time as is needed to mix the suspense and, expanding the demonic warmth until just in the last minutes you understand how scary things will turn.
There are disturbing, even horrifying scenes early on, but they don’t surprise you so much as they build up a constant tension.
The story starts itself into your mind with a first, the unknown fear of something unseen.
It sends shivers down your spine with its harsh air of anticipation and sense of a puzzle that puts forward questions you’re not sure you want the answer.
I highly suggest you watch this if you are searching for realistic yet one of the scariest ghost movies in modern cinema.

02. Exorcism of Emily Rose(2015)

Scare intensity-6/10
Quality of movie-9.5/10
It’s often said “theaters and digital screens act as a wall to differentiate between the real world and movie world”
But when you see something on the screen that strongly resonates with what we know to be real-world, various thoughts, experiences, and emotions bubble up in your mind.
Especially if it’s horror, things don’t go very well for you.
This movie is about a cleric who stands for trial for the murder of a 22-year-old young girl he performed an exorcism, because of which she died.
She is from a decent Catholic family, yet encounters satanic possession in college and struggles against the evil forces within her.
An agnostic lawyer goes to the support of the priest, while government prosecutor calls an outreaching Methodist to accuse.
The interrogation comes down to whether Emily Rose really had medicinal issues or if her indications of paranoia, seizures, muscle, and joint hardening, shouting, brutality and inability to eat has no explanation on the physical, “scientific” level.
The story derives from a real-life trial that happened in the 1970s Bavaria with a girl named Anneliese Michel. The real story is grayer than the film.
Why it is a must see ?
The movie storyline is grasping; It triggers consideration of the partial separation between religion and science.
Is demonic possession real? Does science answer? Does God exist?
The closest encounter we often have with ghosts (if real or not) is through a possessed person.
You might have heard stories of possession, and if you wish you could have seen a real ghost, this movie could be the nearest answer.
This is one of the most accurate, true-to-life supernatural yet one of the scariest ghost movies you could see.

Honourable mentions,

Before jumping top our top spot, Ill list some honorable mentions which we couldn’t include in our Top 10 ghost movies of all time countdown but are worth watching.

01. Hereditary(2018)

Quality of movie-9.5/10
Hereditary is a movie that pushes the limits of what frightfulness is.
Its story is about a dysfunctional family dealing with the death of a member and lets the audience watch these individuals gradually crumble as grief overtakes them.
If you are going into this movie, expecting that it should be a normal horror movie, you will be woefully baffled.
The movie gets your attention right from the opening shot; I loved how the camera focused in on the unpleasant miniature house and after it entered the child’s room.
The jump scares in this film will shake you since they are not your ordinary jump scares.
Which is normally a sudden silence followed by a dramatic noise and a ghost popping up out of the blue?
The director’s sense of priority cautiously delivers plausibly the best terror traps: the wide-angle shots, a dash of the paranoia, and simple yet effective sound effects.
It infiltrates each scene, and the audience isn’t permitted to relax at all.
The last 15 to 20 minutes of the film gets serious (very serious).
And yes! Also, continued crashing with your psyche may trigger the PTSD you got from this film.
This movie never made into box office hits but surely is on the way to become one classic like The Exorcist & will shine in Hollywood history as top 10 horror movies of all time
Make sure you are in a good state of mind and health before watching this movie.
