The Last House surged to the top of Netflix’s US charts immediately after its August 7 release, posting 27.5 million views in its first three days—the year’s fifth-best opening for an original movie—and has held the No. 1 spot amid strong word-of-mouth and algorithmic promotion. Starring Greta Lee and Wagner Moura in a high-concept sci-fi thriller from director Louis Leterrier, the film’s survival premise and star power have driven sustained streaming hours despite mixed critical reception. With no major new theatrical-to-streaming titles launching this week, trader consensus reflects its locked-in momentum. An upset would require a surprise late-week release or an unusually steep drop in engagement that allows catalog titles or fresh arrivals to overtake it in final viewership tallies.
