Movies like Enemy
2013 · Movie · your starting pointIf you're chasing Enemy's specific blend of doppelgänger obsession and psychological fracture, you'll likely find The Double (2013) and You (2018) most aligned—both use visual repetition and identity confusion to collapse reality in ways that mirror Villeneuve's approach, though neither quite matches his pacing restraint. The Suspect (2013) and A Stranger in the Woods (2022) probably come closest to the claustrophobic unease and methodical descent into delusion, trading the doppelgänger hook for obsessive pursuit and reclusive dread respectively. Bodies (2012) and The Lookalike (2014) share the paranoia and voyeuristic entanglement but risk feeling less architecturally precise about how obsession warps perception.
