02
The Hallow
Why this pick
Its rain-soaked rural setting and folkloric menace deliver the same bleak, travel-turned-terror atmosphere, with practical-feeling threats and steadily tightening survival tension.
03
The Piper
Why this pick
This dark folk-horror fable turns an unfamiliar village into a hostile moral trap, sharing the ominous old-world imagery and atmosphere of sins catching up with stranded outsiders.
04
Sorum
Why this pick
A brooding, rain-drenched urban horror mystery built around damaged strangers and buried wrongdoing; it offers similarly patient unease rather than relying on constant shocks.
05
The House That Jack Built
Why this pick
For the film’s interest in guilt and punishment, this is a far harsher psychological descent: stylised, morally confrontational horror centred on a killer’s self-justifying narrative.

01 / THE STORY
A little about the film.
After fleeing Australia, Jennifer takes a job as a nanny in the Netherlands. Her employer eventually discovers her true identity and that she is a fugitive. Looking for a way to quickly leave Amsterdam, she attempts to bluff her way onto a tour bus. Abe, the driver, allows her to board without a ticket, joking that "there's always room for another sinner". The other tourists include the British businessman Douglas and his son, Curt; Jackson, a British soldier who accidentally killed a prostitute prior to boarding; Ruby, a French photographer sent to take pictures of windmills; Takashi, a university student who speaks only Japanese; and Nicholas, a troubled British physician.
