With winter in full swing and reminders of Christmas at every corner, some of us just want a bit of escapism.
Netflix isn’t short on choice, with fans loving an ’emotional rollercoaster’ Mexican revenge series and a new thriller with a perfect Rotten Tomatoes score.
But a movie featuring Megan Fox and robot sex is topping Netflix’s movie charts this December.
Yes, you read that right…
The movie, starring Megan Fox, has some raunchy moments (XYZ Films)
In her latest role, Fox plays Alice, a revolutionary AI droid designed to help families around the home.
Father and daughter Nick (Michele Morrone) and Isla Peretti (Matilda) buy her after wife/mom Maggie (Madeline Zima) falls ill with a heart condition.
But self-aware Alice soon becomes infatuated with Nick, with bloody consequences.
There are some pretty raunchy moments, too, with Alice blind-folding Nick and changing her voice into Maggie’s so he’d have sex with her. How’s that for manipulation!?
You can watch the trailer for the SK Dale-directed movie – called Subservience – below:
Some were afraid we were getting a glimpse into the not-so-near future, with android robots already in operation – just look at streamer Kai Cenat and his $24k humanoid robot.
One person wrote: “This Subservience movie on Netflix is insane!!! What if we actually get to that point where AI robots do everything?? I really hope not.”
A second said: “Subservience was the craziest s**t I’ve watched in a minute… it was a lil bit too real.”

A third agreed: “Watch Subservience on netflix! They giving us glimpse of whats about to happen i dont find that robot s**t funny or cool.”
Critics over on Rotten Tomatoes weren’t overly impressed with the movie, though, rating it just 50 percent.
Many praised Fox’s ‘alluring’ performance, but others slammed it as ‘predictable,’ with The Guardian’s Leslie Felperin reckoning it could’ve been a ‘cult classic’ had it been a bit smarter.
