Movies that feel likeThe Kingdom (1994)

At The Kingdom, Denmark's most technologically advanced hospital, a number of strange and otherworldly events begin occurring, much to the dismay of its doctors and patients. A ghostly ambulance appears and disappears, the voice of a little girl calls to a patient in an elevator shaft, and a doctor's fetus begins growing at an alarming rate.

If you loved The Kingdom, the closest films we have are Good Manners (2018), Next of Kin (1982) and I Walked with a Zombie (1943). All three share The Kingdom's dreamlike and dread feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Even the Wind Is Afraid (1968).
