Films You'd Like to See the Potter Films Borrow From...

[daughterofthedust]

This came to mind after my last response...

I was wondering if anyone can think of films that you'd like see the 
future Potter films borrow from and/or have a similar air...Be that 
the intelligence, spirit, atmosphere, etc...

Which ones spring to mind and why?

For me...

Two, that immediately come to mind are:

Something Wicked This Way Comes - aside from the nifty song in the 
commercial, the film (based on the Ray Bradbury story) was a neat 
little gem. It had a wonderful gothic mystery feel and just enough 
creepiness to sustain interest without being too scary

and 

Young Sherlock Holmes - The special effects in this films REALLY 
hold up well (incidentally, this film marks the first modern 
integration of CGI in a film) and I also loved the speilburgian 
whimsy, again, the gothic feel, and the way the young actors handled 
themselves...

So what are your picks?
