The ‘Twilight’ Saga Has Taken Over Netflix’s Top 10 List Just Days After Hitting the Streaming Service

There are some franchises that will never get old, but we’ve never seen anything quite like this.

All four Twilight movies recently became available to watch on Netflix, and within a matter of days, they’ve all claimed spots on the streaming service’s list of most-watched films. This includes Twilight (currently ranked first), New Moon (ranked fourth), Eclipse (ranked fifth) and Breaking Dawn (ranked sixth).

The story follows a high schooler named Bella (Kristen Stewart), who begrudgingly moves to the small town of Forks, Washington, to live with her dad. While there, she meets a handsome student named Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), who’s hiding a dark—yet intriguing—secret: He’s a vampire.

The saga documents their years-long relationship, including everything from breakups to near-death experiences.

In addition to Stewart and Pattinson, other cast members include Peter Facinelli (Carlisle Cullen), Elizabeth Reaser (Esme Cullen), Ashley Greene (Alice Cullen), Kellan Lutz (Emmett Cullen), Nikki Reed (Rosalie Hale), Jackson Rathbone (Jasper Hale), Billy Burke (Charlie Swan), Cam Gigandet (James Witherdale), Rachelle Lefevre (Victoria Sutherland), Edi Gathegi (Laurent Da Revin), Taylor Lautner (Jacob Black) and Anna Kendrick (Jessica Stanley).

Twilight (which is based on the best-selling book by Stephenie Meyer) originally premiered back in 2008, so it’s been around for quite some time. However, this is the first time that all four movies have been available to stream at no cost. While some viewers have probably caught a cable marathon of the saga, the films weren’t easily accessible prior to joining Netflix.

Welp, here we go again.
