Hagazussa

Hagazussa (Tubi) is a 2017 Germany/Austrian horror film. The story takes place in a remote mountain village in the 15th-century Alps, and is about a goat herder and her daughter who are shunned as witches by local townspeople. I expected some actual witchcraft and was disappointed in that. Almost all the critics liked it, though, so I think my expectations hurt my appreciation.

Love and Monsters

Love and Monsters (Paramount+) is a 2020 monster adventure movie. It's well-reviewed. I'd definitely watch a sequel if they made one. This is a fun film.

from Wikipedia:
The destruction of an asteroid headed for Earth releases fallout, causing cold-blooded animals to mutate into large monsters and kill off most of humanity. During the evacuation of Fairfield, Joel Dawson is separated from his girlfriend Aimee but promises to find her, shortly before his parents are killed by monsters.

Seven years later, Joel lives in one of many bunkers underground called "colonies", where all other survivors have paired up romantically while fighting monsters and seeking supplies. Joel instead is relegated to the kitchen, as he freezes up in dangerous situations. After a giant ant breaches his colony, killing one of the survivors, Joel decides to set off on a quest to reunite with Aimee, so that he doesn't end up alone.
