Movies that feel likeFractured (2019)

Driving cross-country, Ray and his wife and daughter stop at a highway rest area where his daughter falls and breaks her arm. After a frantic rush to the hospital and a clash with the check-in nurse, Ray is finally able to get her to a doctor. While the wife and daughter go downstairs for an MRI, Ray, exhausted, passes out in a chair in the lobby. Upon waking up, they have no record or knowledge of Ray's family ever being checked in.

If you loved Fractured, the closest films we have are The Machinist (2004), Breaking Surface (2020) and The Hater (2020). All three share Fractured's tense and contemplative feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Tunnel (2016).
