So I did something incredibly tedious and time-consuming: I went through Netflix’s entire film library. (The only way I know how to do this: Click “Browse” then “Movies” then a genre, then click thebutton at the top right that shows for small boxes instead of three horizontal lines. Then click either “Year Released,” “A-Z,” or “Z-A.” That gives you every title in a certain genre, and if you do that forevery genre, eventually you’ve seen every title on offer.) From the hundreds of movies available, I picked the 20 essentialones that every cinephile should watch. If you’ve watched all 20, well done – I also gave you 20 morerecommended titles below that. If you’ve watched all 40 of these movies already, well, you can go watchTimecop again.

Netflix’s library is large but not especially deep. It offers very few 20th century movies, and even fewer that can be cited as true cinematic turning points. One of the few titles they do have that fits that description: Night of the Living Dead, George A. Romero’s incredibly influential horror tale about an undead invasion. Forget about the whole “zombie” of it all; just the fact that Romero made the film independently, and it became as successful and as significant as it did, makes it a major historical landmark.
