Yet another movie about a deadly virus has made it into Netflix's top 10.
"Only," about a virus that is lethal to the world's female population, follows a string of pandemic-related movies to become popular on Netflix amid the coronavirus, including 1995's "Outbreak."
Netflix introduced daily top 10 lists of its most viewed movies and TV shows in February (it counts a view if an account watches at least two minutes of a title).
Every week, the streaming search engine Reelgood compiles for Business Insider a list of which movies have been most prominent on Netflix's daily lists that week. On Reelgood, users can browse Netflix's entire movie library and sort by IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes ratings.
The lists have helped spotlight Netflix originals, but this week's list is lacking in that regard except for the top spot.
But the streak of critically reviled movies surging up the charts continues, as there is more than one with a 0% Rotten Tomatoes critic score on the list.
Below are Netflix's 9 most popular movies of the week in the US:
