Films like Hollow Man II.

Hollow Man II (2006) reads as Sombre, breathless, measured horror / thriller, inventive in texture. Ambivalent, 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.
