What the Tech? Netflix Secret Codes

(ABC 6 News) – Ever scrolled through Netflix, feeling like you’re stuck in a movie Groundhog Day? You’re not alone. Despite Netflix boasting a massive library of thousands of movies and shows, we often
find ourselves staring at the same recycled recommendations. But fear not, fellow bingers! The
secret to unlocking Netflix’s treasure trove lies in its secret codes.

As Halloween approaches, I’m here to spill the beans on how to unearth a plethora of spooky
movies and shows using these clandestine codes. So, grab your popcorn, dim the lights, and
prepare for a frightfully fun movie marathon.

Cracking the Code

Netflix, since its DVD days, has meticulously organized its content into genres and subgenres.
From zombie flicks to cult classics, horror-comedies to foreign frights, there’s a code for every
spooky craving. To access these hidden categories, simply enter the code into your web
browser at Netflix.com/browse/genre, followed by the secret code.

For instance, by using the code for Horror Comedies, I stumbled upon a PG-13 gem I would
have never discovered through aimless scrolling. And it doesn’t stop at horror – there are codes
for 90-minute rom-coms, family movie night, steamy thrillers, and even “Six Degrees of Kevin
Bacon”. Netflix workers are reportedly adding new codes and categories as we speak.

Where to Find the Codes

Sadly, Netflix doesn’t offer a public directory of these codes. But fret not I’ve compiled a list of
some of these secret codes right here on my blog at whatthetech.tv.

So, what are you waiting for? Dive into the world of Netflix secret codes and unlock a whole new
dimension of entertainment this Halloween. Happy haunting!
