Netflix Is About To Lose a Cult-Favorite Post-Apocalyptic Movie (& It’s Not Streaming Anywhere Else)

As a huge movie fan, I just found out we don’t have much time left to watch This Is the End on Netflix! It only landed on the platform in November, but it’s already leaving on March 1st – seriously, streaming services can be so frustrating. This movie is a total blast – a ridiculously funny, apocalyptic horror comedy packed with stars.
