Movies that feel likeAlienoid (2022)

Gurus in the late Goryeo dynasty try to obtain a fabled, holy sword, and humans in 2022 hunt down an alien prisoner that is locked in a human's body. The two parties cross paths when a time-traveling portal opens up.

If you loved Alienoid, the closest films we have are Vesper (2022), Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) and A Writer's Odyssey (2021). All three share Alienoid's dreamlike and epic feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018).
