Black Summer (Season 2)
Genre: Action, Drama, Horror, Thriller
Cast: Justin Chu Cary, Jaime King, Christine Lee, Sal Velez Jr.

Netflix has had a bit of zombie fever so far this year with the release of Army of the Dead but now we’re back at it with the return of Black Summer.
From the creators of Z Nation, this zombie series is set during the early days of an outbreak following a group of survivors. The second season ramps up the violence and by most accounts improves dramatically over the first season.
Katla (Season 1)
Genre: Drama, Mystery, Sci-Fi, Thriller
Cast: Guðrún Eyfjörð, Íris Tanja Flygenring, Aliette Opheim, Ingvar Sigurðsson, Þorsteinn Bachmann, Sólveig Arnarsdóttir
Writer: Sigurjón Kjartansson, Baltasar Kormákur
Runtime: 43 mins
Marking another first for Netflix today is the release of the Icelandic series Katla. The sci-fi thriller sees an eruption of a volcano that turns the world upside down.
Early reviews suggest this is going to be a sleeper hit for Netflix adding to the already impressive slate of European-made sci-fi titles.
Silver Linings Playbook (2012)
Genre: Comedy, Drama, Romance
Director: David O. Russell
Cast: Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, Robert De Niro, Jacki Weaver
Writer: David O. Russell (screenplay), Matthew Quick (novel)
Runtime: 122 min
Awards: Won 1 Oscar. Another 88 wins & 148 nominations.
Longtime Netflix subscribers will know Silver Linings Playbook has come and gone numerous times over the years but it’s back once again today.
The excellent drama based on the novel is a marvelous film and we’re happy to see it again today. Here’s what you can expect if you’ve not watched before:
“A man with bipolar disorder moves home with his parents and makes a connection with a spirited widow, which helps both of them heal in unique ways.”
