There’s no denying it any longer: Netflix subscribers have an undeniably passionate appetite. As an episodic erotic thriller returned for a second time and soared to become one of the streaming service’s most-watched shows, Fatale has confidently claimed the top spot on the feature-length charts.
According to FlixPatrol, this widely-panned box office bomb, which only earned a meager $7 million during its theatrical run, has spent the past 48 hours dominating as the number one most-viewed movie among audiences in the United States. And it’s not hard to see why.
Whenever there’s even a slight hint of sensuality, steaminess, scandal, or an abundance of exposed skin in a film or TV project, you can guarantee it will skyrocket to the top of the viewership charts on any available platform. However, Netflix has proven to be particularly successful in this alluring subgenre.
Here we see two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank immersing herself in the kind of provocative material that was common in the late 1980s and early 1990s. She engages in a passionate night with Michael Ealy’s sports agent character, who blissfully remains unaware that she’s actually a law enforcement officer. Naturally, this creates a series of complications that push the boundaries of legality to their breaking point.
At this point, it doesn’t matter what the content is. If you introduce something erotic to Netflix, you’ve instantly created a guaranteed hit.
