Greetings,
You may want to search the archives of Horror@Indiana (Indiana University's
horror in film & literature listserv). You do not need a membership (except
to see private email addresses) and there are about fifteen years of
archived messages: https://listserv.indiana.edu/archives/horror.html.
One film that comes to mind is the made-for-television version of Stephen
King's IT, in which a photo album plays a large role in illustrating the
evil of Pennywise the clown.
Best,
-D
