Loved this. Any similar movies?

I just watched this and really enjoyed it. Didn't really rely on jump scares, did a good job of creating a creepy atmosphere, stayed exciting the entire time, and even had some interesting historical lore and philosophical ideas. For anyone else who liked this movie, do you have any recommendations for similar things? (not necessarily movies where they get trapped somewhere, but just movies where the things I mentioned take place)

Thanks in advance if anyone has any

If you like the labyrinthine atmosphere you might like Jan Svankajer's Faust.

It's not anything great but has similar atmosphere: The Pyramid,

Agreed. Its a lot cheesier and definitely worse than AASB, but very similar in a lot of ways.

Disregard the kill list recommendation. That movies has zero in common with this one...and its pretty *beep* also. Never trust horror top 10 lists is what I learned after watching that *beep* movie.

@Red_Army- i completely agree kill list was trash, i hated that movie.

to the OP- I also really enjoyed As Above, So Below. Umm a movie that I thought had a similar vibe to it is The Descent, which others have mentioned, however it does not deal with the same themes.

No idea how it is recommended seriously by people, especially as a horror movie (not sure how the above guy thinks Kill List is similar at all). One minute of stupid *beep* at the end = top horror?

Try Borderlands, found footage style but on a lower budget, arguably a better film though.

The Pyramid is definitely similar, also look up Afflicted. I enjoyed both of them, think you will too.

"Crawl or Die" 2014, the claustrophobic feeling is beyond real, read my review ....

Catacombs is a horror movie set in the same location (catacombs of Paris), but it's not very good.

I drink and I know things
