With all that's going on in the world, there's something wonderfully predictable and entertaining about a good disaster flick. As exaggerated as the disaster seems, it removes us from the existing trials of life and puts us into an extreme that's beyond the possibility of ever happening. That's what makes them so appealing. Add vivid special effects and a brave hero to save a few survivors, and you have a recipe for an excellent movie-watching experience.
Netflix has some of the best disaster movies available. Whether you prefer to watch a flood, total world destruction, or watch a fire in the tallest building in the world, there is something for just about everyone. These movies will keep you on the edge of your seat and have you relieved that at least whatever is on your screen isn't happening outside your window.
