If Leave the World Behind kept you up at night, Netflix’s next thriller might just finish the job. The Last House is coming — and the first-look images alone are already unsettling.

What Is The Last House on Netflix?

Netflix has unveiled a haunting first look at The Last House (previously known as 11817), an upcoming sci-fi survival thriller from director Louis Leterrier, starring Greta Lee and Wagner Moura — officially set to hit Netflix globally on August 7, 2026.

Blending science fiction, horror, and survival thriller elements, the film centres on a family trapped inside their own home, facing an unknown threat with dwindling resources and no way out.

The first-look images capture the movie’s claustrophobic and desperate tone — one shows the family peering anxiously through a fogged, rain-streaked window, while another reveals the parents literally tearing up floorboards to plant a makeshift indoor vegetable garden. That image alone tells you everything about how dire things get. whats-on-netflix
