Movies that feel likeAntichrist (2009)

A grieving couple retreats to their cabin 'Eden' in the woods, hoping to repair their broken hearts and troubled marriage. But nature takes its course and things go from bad to worse.

If you loved Antichrist, the closest films we have are The Innkeepers (2012), The House That Jack Built (2018) and The Eyes of My Mother (2016). All three share Antichrist's dread and unsettling feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Creep (2014).
