If you can't see "San Andreas" this weekend, Netflix has plenty of disaster movies to tide you over. Sadly, there's no "Towering Inferno" or other classic '70s disaster films available at the moment, so why not watch Lloyd Bridges have a disaster-induced meltdown (pre-"Airplane!") while William Shatner saves the day in 1979's "Disaster on the Coastliner"?
You can also root for Brad Pitt to stay one step ahead of zombies in "World War Z," or watch LL Cool J get this close to being shark bait in "Deep Blue Sea."
But disaster isn't just the realm of fiction: Acclaimed documentaries revisit the tragedies on Mount Everest, conspiracy theories about a famous plane disaster and the devastating aftermath of China's Great Earthquake of 2008.
And if it's So Bad It's Good cheesiness you're after, we have one word for you: "Sharknado."
Movie availability on Netflix is subject to change without notice.

It's a battle that has raged on since Tiffani "I'm not Amber anymore" Thiessen stopped adding Saved by the Bell credits in 1993, and started picking up Beverly Hills 90210 credits in '94. Valerie/Kapowski kicked things off, and the cage match has been firing on all cylinders ever since. Sometimes Bell seemed to have the upper hand, but for quite a while Hills was the clear front-runner. Often, it was hard to tell who was pulling ahead, and who was digging a bigger hole.
It looked like Hills was destined to take a quick lead, and might never look back, because it had all the attention on its names, and Bell had Showgirls. A film so bad that it became one of the best bad movies of all-time, and its recent home video release includes a commentary track by someone who managed semi-pro status simply as a person who made fun of Showgirls.
