3 Best Movies To Watch On Netflix This Weekend (Oct 25-26)

As October continues, many Netflix viewers are searching for scary movies and Halloween favorites to watch. While Netflix has plenty of spooky options, you’ll be missing out if you don’t check out other genres too!

This weekend offers a mix of great movies: a restored version of a beloved horror film, a unique and often-missed vampire story, and a hilarious comedy that fans of Meet the Parents are sure to enjoy.

I Know What You Did Last Summer (2025)

With Halloween just around the corner, now’s the perfect time to watch some classic scary movies. While films like Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream, and Halloween are always popular choices, I Know What You Did Last Summer is also a great pick. Instead of rewatching those well-known favorites, you can now stream the new 2025 sequel to I Know What You Did Last Summer on Netflix.

Compared to some recent horror remakes, like The Invisible Man or the 2018 Halloween, I Know What You Did Last Summer is a fun throwback. It’s a great choice for a spooky movie night with friends, especially if you enjoy ’90s nostalgia and stars like Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. The timing of its arrival on streaming services right before Halloween feels perfect.

El Conde

If you’re in the mood for classic vampire movies like Nosferatu and Dracula this weekend, there are plenty to choose from. But for something different, El Conde is a surprisingly good find. Just be prepared for a strange story: it reimagines a historical Chilean dictator as a vampire, and even includes Margaret Thatcher! If you enjoy the humor and horror of What We Do in the Shadows, you’ll likely love El Conde‘s unique style.

El Conde is a stylish, funny, and surprisingly bold film, making it a genuinely refreshing watch. It might not be the first choice for a typical Halloween party, but for movie lovers wanting something different from the usual horror options, it’s a clever and enjoyable treat.

About My Father

This funny movie immediately reminded people of Meet the Parents – both films center around a man about to propose while meeting his girlfriend’s family, and Robert De Niro plays the father in both. However, that similarity didn’t do About My Father any favors with reviewers, and the 2023 film didn’t receive much attention.

Despite not being a constant stream of jokes like Meet the Parents, About My Father has a genuine charm. Inspired by Sebastian Maniscalco’s real family, the movie builds a heartwarming relationship between him and Robert De Niro, focusing on the importance of acceptance. It’s a worthwhile watch, and now you can stream it on Netflix.
