Movies like The Cellar

“The Cellar (2022) is a 2020s Irish-American-Belgian horror-mystery that transposes haunted-house conventions into a rural, domestic crucible. It stages the core conflict — a mother's search for a vanished child against an ancestral, house-bound entity — through chiaroscuro lighting, claustrophobic framing, and slow-burn rhythmic development. The film uses atmosphere and a maternal investigative POV to convert inherited trauma into narrative propulsion and cultural texture.”
