Films like From Beyond the Grave.

From Beyond the Grave (1974) reads as Sombre, kinetic, measured anthology / amicus, inventive in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
