The Seeding 2023
This is a super dark and ultimately cynical horror thriller that was clearly inspired by Woman in the Dunes. This scientist, I can't remember what his specialty is, but he gets lost while hiking and wanders into some isolated pit area where the only access in or out is by an extended ladder.

From the very beginning to the end it’s non-stop scenes of fist fights, bludgeoning, stabbing, choking, and torture in a manner that’s purely primal.
The movie does take occasional time outs to establish some back story and give a little character…
