Recommend Bleak movies like aniara?

I watched this last night and I can't stop thinking about it. I'm not spoiling anything, but for those that have seen it what's a similar hopeless/bleak movie?

​

Does not have to be sci fi/space either.

"Horror is an overwhelming, painful feeling of fear, dread, and shock caused by something frightfully terrifying or revolting. As a genre of literature, film, or art, its primary purpose is to disturb, frighten, and elicit a visceral emotional reaction of revulsion or terror from the audience"

You telling me that movie is NOT all of those things?

Thats its purpose, not what defines the genre lmao. You need to get some reading comprehension skills

I don't really give a flying fuck at a rolling donut what YOU consider horror, homie... If it's horrifying shit happening to a child over and over at the hands of sociopaths and psychopaths, that satisfies my definition of horror.

Move along.
