The Autopsy of Jane Doe
Why this pick

02
The Signal
Why this pick
A strange transmission lures a group into a sleek, disorienting sci-fi mystery; it offers a more kinetic variation on The Vast of Night’s fascination with contact and uncertainty.
03
The Mothman Prophecies
Why this pick
For its ominous calls, fragmented evidence, and anxious small-town atmosphere, it similarly makes an unknowable presence feel most frightening through the signals it leaves behind.
04
Beyond the Black Rainbow
Why this pick
Its retro audiovisual texture and deliberate pacing should suit the film’s late-night analog mood, though it is far more abstract and hypnotic than The Vast of Night.
