My Oxford Year.

Sometimes all you need is a romantic and deliciously cliché movie to devour on your Friday night. And boy, do I have the film for you this weekend.

Netflix has just dropped a new rom-com starring Sofia Carson (Purple Hearts, The Life List) and Corey Mylchreest (Queen Charlotte) — set in the hallowed halls of Oxford University.

The movie is based on the novel by Julia Whelan, and follows an American woman named Anna (Carson) who follows her dreams to spend a year in Oxford studying in the graduate program. Who should she meet, but a charming teacher named Jamie (Mylchreest)?

The pair embark on a whirlwind romance, which — like all good romances of the whirlwind variety — will inevitably face some third-act obstacles our dashing leads must overcome. But in this case, the obstacles turn out to be unexpected and devastating. Still, love is the centre of this story.

It's mushy and sweet and earnest and a little too much, sure. It's got cosy libraries, people wearing sweaters, and plenty of romance. But sometimes that's all you need! I will warn you this one has a lot more heart than it has humour. You're going to need some tissues.

My Oxford Year is now streaming on Netflix.

Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes.

If you've already devoured every episode of Making a Murderer and can recite Serial from memory, Netflix's latest true crime offering is about to become your new weekend rabbit hole.

Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes dives deep into one of New York's most notorious serial killer cases from the 1970s, and it's the kind of gripping documentary that'll have you pausing mid-episode to frantically Google everything.

Through never-before-heard audio recordings and interviews, you'll get an unsettling glimpse into the mind of David Berkowitz — and trust me, it's the kind of viewing experience that'll have you double-checking your door locks.

Conversations with a Killer: The Son of Sam Tapes is now streaming on Netflix.

Twisted Metal season 2.

Recommended by Laura Brodnik, Head of Entertainment and co-host of The Spill.

Everyone's favourite post-apocalyptic action comedy (one of my favourite genres), Twisted Metal, is back for season two.

The series is based on the video game of the same name and takes place in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, where an event known as 'The Fall' has shut down life on Earth as we know it, leaving society to crumble into chaos, into a regime controlled mostly by criminals and people within walled cities.

Twisted Metal is a fun watch, made even better by the performances of Anthony Mackie as John Doe, a delivery driver with amnesia who, in the first season, we saw hoon across the dangerous wasteland on a suspicious delivery mission, and Stephanie Beatriz as Quiet, a car thief he teams up with who was also hiding some secrets.

In season two, after a few shocking moments from the season one finale, we see John and Quiet enter the deadly TWISTED METAL tournament, where they have to face a whole new set of dangerous foes.

As an added treat for viewers, the murderous clown Sweet Tooth makes a return in season two.

Twisted Metal season 2 is now streaming on Stan.

Together.

Recommended by Tara Watson, Senior Entertainment Writer.

Together is not for the faint of heart. 

This disturbing horror film stars real-life couple Dave Franco and Alison Brie as Tim and Millie, whose troubled relationship faces a grotesque transformation after a supernatural incident in a mysterious cave causes their bodies to literally fuse together.

Yep, that really happens. 

As their condition worsens, the couple must confront physical and psychological horrors as they are forced to examine their codependency.

Prepare yourself (and your stomach) for a bunch of gruesome body horror and unsettling, graphic scenes, but stay for the unique plot and layered performances.

Together is now playing in cinemas.
