Netflix provides a wide selection of movies and TV shows to cater to every viewer’s preferences. But beyond the usual categories, there’s a secret world of even more specific genres waiting to be discovered. This guide unravels the mysteries of Netflix’s hidden codes, a handy trick that unlocks an extensive collection of niche categories. So, what are these secret codes and how do you use them?
When browsing on Netflix, you’ll come across genres like horror, romance, and documentaries. However, these are broad categories. Secret codes can give you access to niche categories within these genres. These codes are numerical and can be added to the end of the URL to find hyper-specific movie lists on Netflix. For instance, if you want to exclusively browse Christmas movies or Japanese horror, you can find the codes for these genres and use them to search for movies belonging to that specific genre.
To use Netflix secret codes, follow these steps:
1. Enter this URL into your browser: http://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/
2. After the last slash in the URL above, input the Netflix code you want to look up. The complete list of codes is provided below.
Here are all the Netflix codes you’ll ever need, divided into seventeen categories:
– 90-Minute Movies
– Short-Ass Movies
– Watch in One Night
– Watch in One Weekend
– 30-Minute Laughs
– 90-Minute Comedies
– 90-Minute Family Movies
– 90-Minute Horror
– 90-Minute Rom-Coms
– 90-Minute Thrillers

It’s important to note that secret codes do not work on smart TVs like Roku, and they need to be input into browser URLs, so they don’t function on TVs. Additionally, Netflix does not have an adult-only category, but you can search for movies with adult scenes using the respective code, 11781.
