Films like Annabelle: Creation.

Annabelle: Creation (2017) reads as Sombre, kinetic, extreme horror / supernatural, inventive in texture. Nihilistic, mid-stakes, cold. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
