Today we recommend a mix of new releases and newly available titles, from movies and shows, all available to stream on the most popular platforms.

The Walking Dead (Netflix)

Season 11 of the longest running zombie series in the world is finally available on Netflix. It’s also the last, marking an emotional beat for long time fans, who’ve been tuning in for twelve years, as the series has burned through characters and storylines. Despite the end, there are multiple spin offs planned, including one that stars Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and Michonne (Danai Gurira), two fan favorites.

The Menu (HBO Max)

“The Menu,” which premiered in theaters last year, is now available on HBO Max. The film, which is a mix of horror, comedy, and thriller, stars Ralph Fiennes as a celebrity chef, hosting guests played by Anya Taylor Joy, Nicholas Hoult, and more. As they sit to enjoy one of the world’s most exclusive dining experiences, guests soon realize that things as not as they seem.
