Movies like In the Lost Lands

“In the Lost Lands (2025) is a 2020s German-Swiss dystopian action-fantasy that stages a frontier quest dispatched by a monarch. It frames a sorceress-and-guide mission into a ghostly wilderness to seize a dangerous power through high-contrast chiaroscuro, survivalist setpieces, and folkloric dread. The film argues that action-western staging married to folk-horror atmosphere is a viable way to translate dystopian stakes for contemporary genre audiences.”
