After Netflix Announced Its Adding A Thriller With 100% On Rotten Tomatoes, I'm More Excited About This Anna Kendrick Thriller

As a seasoned gamer and binge-watcher of all things horror and suspense, I can confidently say that the upcoming lineup on Netflix is nothing short of a dream come true. With shows like Yellowjackets and movies like Woman of the Hour, it seems like Netflix has truly outdone itself this time around.


Netflix stands out among other streaming services due to its recent surge in offering some of the most eagerly anticipated horror TV shows and films, not to mention its existing impressive collection. A fresh addition to this lineup, the psychological thriller Yellowjackets, which boasts a flawless 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, is creating quite a stir among viewers. Yet, it’s another upcoming thriller that has me particularly intrigued: Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut, Woman of the Hour, is set to join Netflix as well

In a different perspective, Showtime’s Yellowjackets, a series I’m eagerly anticipating, transports viewers into a harrowing tale of survival and enigma. On the other hand, Woman of the Hour, boasting an impressive 90% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, delves into the ominous realm of a genuine serial killer. Making her directorial debut, Anna Kendrick, takes us on a chilling true-crime journey about Rodney Alcala, a notorious murderer who charmed his way onto the hit TV game show The Dating Game, despite being in the midst of a brutal killing spree

The tale of Alcala is an astonishing one, plucked from the grim annals of true crime. He was a man with charisma to spare, a grin that could brighten any space, and a sharp sense of humor that made him an instant favorite on national television dating shows. In the 70s, Alcala was such a contestant on The Dating Game, the kind of person you’d cheer for… until you uncover his chilling secret

In 2024, the movie lineup welcomes “Woman of the Hour,” Anna Kendrick’s first directorial effort. This gripping film tells the chilling tale of Cheryl Bradshaw, a woman who unwittingly chose Bachelor No. 3, Rodney Alcala, as her suitor. Here’s the catch: this seemingly endearing man was actually a cold-blooded serial killer masquerading as an ordinary individual. If you’re looking for a true crime story that will send shivers through your core, this is the one to watch

The captivating nature of “Woman of the Hour ” isn’t solely due to its haunting theme, but also because Anna Kendrick bravely decided to tackle such a complex project for her directorial debut. Generally recognized for her roles in comedies and lighter dramas, the star of “Pitch Perfect” is venturing into the realm of true crime thrillers, demonstrating her range as a filmmaker

Based on initial reactions, Kendrick seems to be not only venturing beyond her accustomed boundaries but also offering a novel and incisive take on the genre. As TopMob’s Corey Chichizola puts it, this film is an exceptional demonstration of tension-building techniques, making it my belief that it will be the standout movie for Halloween this year

Not only do Yellowjackets and Woman of the Hour offer nail-biting suspense that leaves viewers craving more, but I’m absolutely thrilled about the arrival of Showtime’s hit series on Netflix on October 1st. However, what truly has me on the edge of my seat is the upcoming premiere of Anna Kendrick’s adaptation of the chilling Rodney Alcala story on the streaming platform on October 18th. With a Netflix subscription, you can experience both these captivating stories this autumn
