Movies that feel likeSuspiria (2018)

A darkness swirls at the center of a world-renowned dance company, one that will engulf the artistic director, an ambitious young dancer, and a grieving psychotherapist. Some will succumb to the nightmare. Others will finally wake up.

If you loved Suspiria, the closest films we have are Fear Street: 1994 (2021), Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum (2018) and Paranormal Activity 3 (2011). All three share Suspiria'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 The Medium (2021).
