This is a pretty small category and films rarely hit that spot, but these are the films that take seed in my mind and haunt me.

Films that are subtle or even dream like, often sad, where the horror is something elusive and difficult to understand, not literal monster with chainsaw.

Best examples I can think of are Lake Mungo, Under the Skin, and the recent masterpiece Red Rooms. The podcast equivalent would be Knifepoint Horror which are minimalist, dream like, horror stories.

Does anyone have recommendations of similar films?
