If you loved The Ascent, try Hatchet II
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Adam Green, and they both carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Horror / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Ascent, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Hatchet II is
Honey Island Swamp. Night. The slosh of pirogues. Marybeth survives Crowley's initial onslaught, then learns the monster's origin. She mounts an expedition into the bayou, hell-bent on vengeance. Green delivers maximum splatter, proving the early-aughts slasher revival had some juice left.
