If I Walked with a Zombie hit the spot, these will too

The same hand behind both of them: Jacques Tourneur
The difference: None of the stillness I Walked with a Zombie is built on

Twisty where it counts, dread-soaked underneath
The difference: Not nearly as contemplative as I Walked with a Zombie

Both land unease and dream logic at once

Horror with a pulse of stillness, in both cases

Twisty mystery in both cases

Drama built on dread, twice over
The difference: Made in the 2010s, in a different era of the craft

Common ground: voodoo

Both lean on unease more than on fantasy
The difference: Reviewed a good deal more coolly

Contemplative mystery, and it commits to that

Both keep coming back to the same thing: plantation

Horror with a pulse of dream logic, in both cases
The difference: Sits closer to thriller than I Walked with a Zombie does

Both lean on dread more than on drama
In the mood for more twisty?
