Netflix fans say they were left “physically sick” after the streaming service uploaded horror movie Splice.
The scary sci-fi, which was originally released in 2009, follows a couple who try to mix human DNA with splicing animal genes.
Clive and Vanessa, who are scientists, decided to ignore their company’s call to stop the project and sneakily continued in secret.

The pair created a female creature named Dren that ages much faster than humans.
But the invention led to a series of “traumatising” events, which viewers said left them “haunted forever.”
At the end of March, Netflix added the “terrifying” film to their platform – which stars Adrien Brody, Sarah Polley and Delphine Chanéac.
Viewers were horrified and took to the comment section to speak about the movie.
“This movie made me physically ill,” one user said while another added: “Just watched Splice, never felt so disturbed in my life.”
One person posted: “This movie will forever haunt me.”
Another fan said: “I don’t know why they decided to let that traumatic movie available for all.”
“The most f***ed up movie I’ve ever watched. Splice. It’s on Netflix,” one user commented.
Splice had a budget of $30 million but only brought in $27.1 million at the box office.
The movie was a hit with fans and gained 75% on Rotten Tomatoes.
Korean thriller Unlocked was “one of the scariest” movies many fans have watched.
The technology-based film, which sees a woman’s life get turned upside down after she loses her phone, was released on the streaming platform in February.
Another movie, called His House, had the same effect on fans after it was released.
The 2020 movie is now on the streaming site, with a fleet of scary film fans discovering it on the platform.
The film focuses on a young couple from war-torn South Sudan who are seeking asylum in England.
Their worst fears are realised when a sinister force starts tormenting them while living in their new home.
Taking to Twitter while watching, one viewer said: “I am in here literally screaming in broad daylight watching.”
