Space opera, high fantasy and bangsian fantasy are three that come to mind.

I could see bangsian fantasy work if the afterlife were to be located on earth (which opens up some narrative possibilities, though they're a bit unoriginal). The other two are predicated upon portraying their locations inauthentically, which conflicts with the rules Dogme 25 strives to follow.
Exluding them is for the better... we got more than enough
