After a month-long horror voyage, October is finally ending this weekend. But since Saturday is Halloween, Netflix users are more likely to kick back and relax indoors with a Sunday watchlist to chill and rest up.

With trick-or-treating and costume parties taking centre stage this weekend, everyone will be tired this Sunday.

So, if you’re planning to wake up not any time before noon and spend the rest of the day in PJs, make the downtime worthwhile with a movie marathon that hits the comfort spot.

If you fear the fatigue of curation, don’t worry! We take full responsibility for the heavy lifting, so thank us later for the five best movies to binge on Netflix this Sunday.

The five best movies to stream on Netflix this Sunday

Collision Course (Daniel Sánchez Arévalo, 2026)

The annual season of horror thrillers may be done and dusted, but Netflix has a heist thriller to keep the suspense engine running. Directed by Daniel Sánchez Arévalo, Collision Course is a Spanish heist thriller set at the peak of Madrid’s financial crisis in the early 2010s. The Netflix Original movie follows a desperate group of robbers as they storm and loot a Madrid bank, unknowingly triggering a chain of unexpected events.

Although the heist may seem ordinary, it spirals out of control inside the getaway car when a set of diamonds vanishes from safety deposit box 34, sparking relentless paranoia, deadly confrontations, and a fracture within the robbers. What seems like a standard robbery unravels as a getaway car crash lifts the lid on a meticulously curated network of deep-seated lies, secret agendas, and unexpected betrayals, driven by a dark shared past.

Offering to the Storm (Fernando González Molina, 2020)

Serving as the third and final instalment in the Baztán trilogy, following The Invisible Guardian and The Legacy of the Bones, Offering to the Storm centres on police officer Amaia Salazar as she digs deep into a series of unsettling, mysterious infant deaths formally dismissed as sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) or cot death in the Baztán valley of Navarre, Spain. Locals and concerned family members blame Inguma, a Basque mythological demon rumoured to suffocate sleeping babies, but Amaia believes there’s more to the story.

Although her obsession with the investigation inevitably strains her marriage, soon enough, a father is handcuffed after trying to flee with his dead baby’s body, suggesting the death was a human sacrifice. But just as she gets closer to uncovering the truth behind the disturbing crimes, Amaia’s trusted partner is ruthlessly murdered too. Offering to the Storm follows Amaia as she carries forward the investigation against all odds, determined to find answers and prevent more deaths.

Ocean’s 8 (Gary Ross, 2018)

Since Collision Course is likely to make viewers crave more, Sunday seems like a good day to revisit Ocean’s 8. Serving as a spin-off of Steven Soderbergh’s Ocean’s trilogy, the heist comedy is the fourth instalment in the Ocean’s franchise. The critically acclaimed movie, now streaming on Netflix, follows Danny Ocean’s estranged sister, Debbie, as she gathers a team of female experts to steal a $150million Carter Toussaint necklace from the Met Gala in the Big Apple.

Debbie also has the perfect scapegoat to take the fall: her deceitful ex-boyfriend Claude Becker. But that’s not all. If there’s anything we’ve learnt from heist masterminds, they always have a ruse and a backup plan operating right under our nose. So, if you’re watching Ocean’s 8 for the first time, you must keep your eyes open and read between the lines.

The Lost Daughter (Maggie Gyllenhaal, 2021)

Do you ever scroll past social media reels, get stuck on interesting movie clips and end up finding it on Netflix? Well, that’s a digital jackpot, and that’s always the case with The Lost Daughter. Directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal in her feature directorial debut, the psychological drama follows Leda, a middle-aged English professor and translator, as she travels alone to a seaside village in Greece to spend a quiet working holiday after her two adult daughters move to Canada to live with their father.

While the trip was meant to be peaceful, the silence is disrupted by a loud, extended American family vacationing on the beach. The more she takes notice of them, the more Leda becomes fixated on the mother and her young daughter, who seems to struggle with her favourite doll, Nana. And when the daughter briefly goes missing on the crowded beach, Leda finds her but secretly steals her doll and hides it in her apartment, sparking a major crisis.

Your Son (Miguel Ángel Vivas, 2018)

The final entry on the Sunday watchlist is the 2018 Spanish thriller Your Son. It follows respected Seville surgeon Jaime, whose peaceful life crumbles when his teenage son, Marcos, is brutally beaten and left comatose outside a nightclub. Disappointed and highly discontented with the pace and progress of the official police investigation, Jaime decides to take matters into his own hands and launch his own amateur search.

The first stop in his private investigation is Marcos’ friend Pedro and ex-girlfriend Andrea, who enlighten him on the events of the night. And before long, he identifies that one of the primary aggressors is Albino, the son of a powerful discotheque owner, Manolo. But just as Jaime gets closer to answers, his inquiries lead to legal trouble and a brief arrest, prompting him to go all out by hiring people to seek violent revenge on those responsible.
