While lockdown and shelter in place orders continue in many parts of the world amidst the coronavirus crisis; horror fans have turned to video streaming platforms. With a constantly changing catalog of titles to watch, the choice of what to watch next can feel overwhelming. How many times have you aimlessly wandered around the film or TV library looking for something to grab your attention? Netflix is increasingly becoming a staple option in many homes, with its use rising and viewers spending more time on the platform while confined to their homes. Often films and television shows are available across multiple countries on the streaming service - but sometimes this is not the case. With complex licensing deals and the enormous task of negotiating distribution in various locations - often some hidden horror gems don't make it to the USA. Even major titles and established franchises sometimes see US distribution by Netflix end, while still being available to stream in other locations. Outside the big releases, smaller and independent horror content may distribute locally and will never be available to residents of the US. We are going to take a look at some of the films available on Netflix outside of the USA - and explain how to access them inside America. US movie fans who have exhausted the selection of horror available to them are turning to VPN services to access a more diverse range of horror films and shows. A Netflix VPN works by changing the user's IP address, allowing them to access content as though browsing from a different country than their own. They can view and screen films exclusive to Canada, the UK, Japan, and more in the same manner users in these countries would. If you have been thinking about expanding your knowledge of international horror; this could be a perfect solution. So, what's available outside of the US that horror fans will want to check out?

Watch a chick flick Let's start with the girls' night in staple: the good old chick flick. Sure, these are not the most ambitious films ever made but did European arthouse cinema ever get you through a break-up? Thought so. To spare you the frantic scrolling through Netflix, here are some film suggestions for all types of chick flick fans. If you're feeling nostalgic, watch the rom-com classics like When Harry Met Sally, Pretty Woman, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and A Funeral, You've Got Mail, Bridget Jones's Diary, or 50 First Dates. Looking for something more modern? Give new Netflix releases a try: To All the Boys I've Loved Before, Sierra Burgess Is a Loser, Isn't It Romantic, and Always Be My Maybe.
