In 2025, Netflix reigns as a grand tapestry of entertainment, weaving genres with unmatched finesse. From side-splitting comedies that awaken laughter from the depths of the soul, to horrors that linger long after the screen fades, from heart-pounding action to intricate, edge-of-your-seat thrillers, it offers a treasure trove for every seeker of stories. Every title is a carefully crafted jewel, beckoning curiosity with irresistible allure, and so, when a title sparks intrigue, it is natural to turn to Netflix.

So is the case with The Herd, which raises curiosity about its streaming home; is it on Netflix, or does it live elsewhere?

Directed by Daniel Etim Effiong, The Herd is currently streaming on Netflix, offering a tense and thrilling experience. Gosi, burdened by the shadow of his wife’s recurrent cancer scare, attempts a brief escape from reality by joining friends to celebrate a wedding. Their joyful journey turns into a nightmare when, on the return to their hotel, masked gunmen disguised as cattle herdsmen strike without warning. Fear, suspense, and desperation unfold in this gripping thriller, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.

Bringing this harrowing tale to life is a remarkable cast, including Mercy Aigbe, Daniel Etim Effiong, Tina Mba, Deyemi Okanlawon, Kunle Remi, and Genoveva Umeh. Produced by Glory Obichukwu, with Joshua Cassidy handling editing and visual effects, every suspenseful twist is heightened. Kaline Njoku’s music, alongside Fisayo Adefolaju’s sound design, Tunmise Daniel’s dialogue editing, and immersive effects, pulls viewers deep into the thriller’s relentless tension. The movie shares its name with another thriller released in 2023.

The 2023 thriller Herd remains a topic of curiosity in 2025, but unlike The Herd, its streaming home remains a mystery waiting to be uncovered.

Currently, Herd is available for streaming across multiple platforms, including Amazon Prime Video, AMC Plus, Shudder, Philo, and The Roku Channel with ads. Viewers can also watch it via the Apple TV Channel or AMC+ Amazon Channel. For those who prefer to own a copy, Herd can be rented or downloaded through Amazon Video, Fandango at Home, and Apple TV. While free streaming is not available, these options provide convenient access to experience the thriller’s gripping intensity anytime.

In Herd, a woman fleeing her past finds herself trapped between a zombie outbreak and rival militia groups, where survival is just the beginning and control can be deadlier. The 2023 American horror film, written and directed by Steven Pierce, stars Ellen Adair, Mitzi Akaha, Jeremy Holm, Timothy V. Murphy, Corbin Bernsen, Amanda Fuller, and Dana Snyder. Premiering at FrightFest 2023 and distributed by Dark Sky Films, it delivers tension, terror, and action. While the 2023 thriller missed the Netflix vault, the 2025 The Herd has made Netflix its streaming home.
