Nothing beats winding down at the end of your busy day than watching an exhilarating movie, which has to be accompanied by popcorn, soda, candy and of course, weed. Finding the perfect movie night weed strain is ideal as you do not want to experience a high that can take away from your viewing experience. From my experience, balancing the Indica to Sativa ratio is very important on the impact of your viewing experience, having a strain that is Indica dominant will favor in a high becoming more “couch-locked” per se which is perfect for those B-list Netflix Movies that Adam Sandler always stars in. Sativa dominant strains for Movie Night are fantastic for those movies you need to have your undivided attention too, like “Inception”.
If you are the smoker who prefers to stay buddled up at home or the adventurous one to venture out to the theater, these Top 5 Weed Strains will accommodate you to a viewing level that you can enjoy with ease. Here is my list of the Top 5 Weed Strains For Movie Night you may enjoy, that feature both worlds of Indica and Sativa. I have also attached my personal favorite movie that caters to each strain, from my experience with these strains.

In my personal opinion, Lamb’s Bread seems to be the most suitable, all-around movie night weed strain. It provides the user with mass amounts of energy and positive introspection. Stating just that should convince you to give this weed strain a try. The stress-relieving factor in this strain puts you in the perfect headspace for that drama intensified movie night.

White Widow
Type: 60% Indica 40% Sativa

One of the most recognizable Indica weed strains in the world has to be White Widow. Everyone who has a pipe at home has smoked this strain before and you may also see why this fits in the Top 5. Its buds are coated with white crystals which is a sure sign this strain is going to take you on a ride! I recommend smoking this strain before a hilarious Netflix comedy special as it provides the user with a burst energy and a chatty burst. It goes hand and hand with the Dave Chappelle special, but you may be trying to chat with Dave himself. Many users smoke this weed strain to alleviate pain, medically speaking. If you are a user who experiences mild-moderate pain, this strain can benefit you and keep you locked into that perfect movie.
