For optimal results, using a web browser is recommended. Simply append the code to the end of your URL, which should resemble this: “https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/.”

If you’re looking for something more specific (like zombie or slasher films), don’t fret. There are additional codes you can utilize, which are detailed below:

Genre	Code
B-Horror Classics	8195
Creature Features	6895
Cult Horror	10944
Deep Sea Horror	45028
International Horror	8654

These codes originate from the early days of Netflix’s DVD rental service. The site previously employed a “public genre tree that connected viewers to various genres, with each film and show assigned a specific ID code,” as explained by the platform.

“A dedicated fan compiled all the code information from the genre tree, shared it online, and to this day, users have been using these codes—as well as the thousands more that have since been added.”
