Movies that feel likeGlass (2019)

In a series of escalating encounters, former security guard David Dunn uses his supernatural abilities to track Kevin Wendell Crumb, a disturbed man who has twenty-four personalities. Meanwhile, the shadowy presence of Elijah Price emerges as an orchestrator who holds secrets critical to both men.

If you loved Glass, the closest films we have are Conclave (2024), Coherence (2014) and Disclosure Day (2026). All three share Glass' tense and paranoid feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

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