Squid Games cast members reunite in this breathtaking sci-fi thriller.

The Silent Sea isn't as graphic or shocking as Squid Games, but the series holds it own with a gripping storyline and mind-bending cinematography.

Set in a dystopian near-future, a team of scientists head to the moon for a sample of research from an abandoned space station that could potentially save humanity.

Yet the mission is endangered after the team arrives at the deserted station, which holds dire secrets.

Fans will be on the edge of their seats with this South-Korean mystery that delivers surprises and plenty of action.

Too Hot to Handle: Season Three

Just in time for the new year, the popular reality-dating series is back for another season.

Similar to other love-themed titles, like Love Island or Married at First Sight, Too Hot to Handle focuses on a group of adults who've struck out in love and compete to find actual connections.

But there's a catch.

Any form of physical contact, like kissing, sexual contact, or - ahem - self-gratification, is a big no-no, and results in immediate elimination.

While some have succeeded in finding true romance, others, of course, have failed to rise to the challenge.

Though money is the prize, love is the true reward.

But who will win?

Check out all these series and more, only on Netflix.
