Movies that feel likeCoraline (2009)
If you loved Coraline, the closest films we have are The Witches (1990), Tumbbad (2018) and Tigers Are Not Afraid (2017). All three share Coraline'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 Poison for the Fairies (1986).

If Coraline hit the spot, these will too

The same preoccupation in both: halloween

Dreamlike and dread-soaked in the same breath

Unsettling fantasy, and it commits to that

Horror with a pulse of dream logic, in both cases

Animation built on dread, twice over

Both lean on unease more than on family
The difference: Sits closer to romance than Coraline does

Common ground: dreams
The difference: Made in the 1980s, in a different era of the craft

Dreamlike horror in both cases
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

One thread runs through both: halloween

Both lean on dread more than on fantasy

Animation built on unease, twice over

Family approached the same way
In the mood for more dreamlike?
