In recent years, Netflix has become well-known for producing original films. Critical darlings like Beasts of No Nation and Tallulah have given the fledgling studio an added amount of prestige, while Netflix's production deal with Adam Sandler has ensured that movies like The Ridiculous 6 and The Do-Over receive loads of promotion aimed at the masses. But there are a surprising number of Netflix original films you haven't heard of, and some of them are pretty wild, which is why I've compiled this list of the craziest Netflix original movies you don't know about.

Netflix's less-known films typically cast a wider net than their more famous brethren. For the most part, they don't star big names, they deal with controversial subject matter, and they are sometimes produced overseas. However, there are still some of these hidden gems that do star familiar faces — like Bob Odenkirk, Maisie Williams, and Ricky Gervais — but typically in more experimental roles than what you're used to seeing them in. And while none of these movies have become hits like the Paul Rudd dramedy The Fundamentals of Caring or the President Obama biopic Barry, some of them have managed to garner a cult following. So take a look a the 12 offbeat Netflix movies below, and see if you can discover a new favorite.
