If Repulsion hit the spot, these will too

Roman Polanski working the same nerve twice
The difference: None of the dream logic that defines Repulsion

Contemplative where it counts, tense underneath
The difference: Leans fantasy where Repulsion does not

Both built around hallucination
The difference: Missing the loneliness of Repulsion

Dread-soaked and unsettling in the same breath

The same preoccupation in both: hallucination
The difference: A 2010s film, from a different era of filmmaking

Drama with a pulse of stillness, in both cases

Tense thriller, and it commits to that

Both trade on dread more than on being horror
The difference: Critics were much harder on this one

Drama built on unease, twice over

Black and white is the engine of both

Contemplative thriller in both cases
