Netflix is having another clearout next month - so if you want to catch any of the following titles, you'd better be quick!

With a healthy 8.2 rating on IMDB, Martin Scorsese's masterpiece Taxi Driver (1976) is well worth a couple of hours of your time.

This menacing, unflinching portryal of life on the mean streets of New York sees Robert De Niro star as disturbed loner Travis Bickle.

Working as a cabbie, he grows increasingly detached from reality as he dreams of cleansing the filthy city 'of all the scum'.

Things take a dramatic turn when he meets pretty campaigner Betsy ( Cybill Shepherd ), causing him to further ramp up his desire to save the world.

IMDB user SnoopyStyle posted: "De Niro delivered one of the iconic performances of all time here. Travis Bickle is one of the standards by which all performances are judged."

Continuing the New York theme, you also won't want to miss Johnny Depp 's creepy but fun Sleepy Hollow (1999)

Our hero stars as police detective Ichabod Crane, sent from The Big Apple to the titular village to investigate a series of murders committed by the Headless Horseman (played by Christopher Walken ).

Based on the book by Washington Irving, this Tim Burton movie is remarkably faithful to the dreamy custom-bound world painted in the novel.

Sleepy Hollow deftly mixes horror, fantasy and romance plus features an extraordinary cast of characters that dabble in the supernatural.

With a respectable 7.3 on IMDB, viewer thegin lavished it with praise, saying it's a 'very well put together film, with solidly good acting, and most of all a superb plot. Well worth seeing!

"The visual detail is a masterpiece - the sets are fantastic and lighting brilliant. Tim Burton has superbly used music and suspense to build the thrill."

Also flying from Netflix next month are Sean Connery submarine spy thriller The Hunt For Red October, Rowan Atkinson's ridiculous but hilarious Mr Bean's Holiday and spoof horror flick Scary Movie.

There's also the likes of Bee Movie, Kung Fu Panda, Kung Fu Panda 2, Madagascar 3, and Rise of the Guardians.

We also get to say goodbye to the popular warble-a-long spectacular Sing, and the four adventure-comedy Open Season films.
