No longer will you find yourself making a selection from the recommended content.

This is where a collection of "secret codes" will be a godsend, News.com.au reports.

By making a small tweak to the Netflix URL, you will be able to unlock hyper-specific genres such as religious documentaries or cerebral French-language dramas from the 1960s.

To manually explore categories usually hidden by the streaming service, you will need to enter the following URL: http://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/INSERTNUMBER

Use the codes below to increase your viewing pleasure

Then, simply replace the “INSERTNUMBER” component of the URL with one of the codes needed to access the alternative genres.

To get you started we have listed three collections of codes below, but the extensive list can be found in entirety here.
