Bedford Netflix Subscribers, You've Got Till Dec. 31 to See These Movies

Start popping that popcorn: Here's a list of movies about to be taken off of Netflix at the end of the month.

Netflix, which makes movies available online for a set monthly fee, is removing these flicks at the end of the month (Wednesday night), according to the Netflix Life website, so if you’re a subscriber and want to see them online for no extra charge, you don’t have much time.

(And if you aren’t a Netflix subscriber, they give you the first month free, although you’ll have to sign up with a credit card and better remember to decide at the end of your month if you still want the service.)

“There’s few feelings worse in this world than going on Netflix, planning to watch a movie or show, and then realizing it was pulled from the instant streaming list the day before,” writes Bryce Olin, editor of Netflix Life.

Olin suggests binging, planning ahead and writing Netflix to ask them to bring back any movies you missed. See Olin’s article on Netflix Life for more details.

Other websites present the list of movies soon to depart Netflix in different ways:

  • At Gawker.com, the list is presented by type of movie (classics, “Romance, People Dying [...],” “Man Feelings,” “For Your Inner Child,” “Thrilling Action & Adventure”) and they’ve got short descriptions of each movie.
  • The Hollywood Reporter has the same list as Netflix Life but tacks on several more movies and TV shows leaving Netflix on Jan. 4 (we’ve added their list at the very bottom).
