It’s always a good time to lock in for a marathon watch of Alfred Hitchcock films, and Netflix is getting ready to make a bunch of the legendary director’s features a lot easier to watch in one place.

Today, Netflix announced that it plans to stream a number of Hitchcock’s films next month as part of a showcase tributing his impact on cinema. Starting on June 1st, Netflix subscribers will be able to watch Vertigo, Rear Window, Frenzy, The Man Who Knew Too Much, Family Plot, and The Birds. The showcase will also include a selection of films by other filmmakers like Jordan Peele’s Us and Zach Cregger’s Barbarian that drew inspiration from Hitchcock’s work.

For folks keen on seeing the films at the cinema, Netflix is partnering with the Paris Theater in New York City to present “HITCH! The Original Cinema Influencer,” a six-week-long screening series designed to “highlight [Hitchcock’s] evolving technique and influence on popular culture.” The theatrical screenings, which you can buy tickets to now, are set to run from May 16th through June 29th.
