The Pitt (2025)
The Pitt (2025) is an intense and gripping psychological thriller that explores the dark depths of human survival and the consequences of human greed. Directed by David Barker, the film centers on a group of individuals trapped in an abandoned, subterranean prison known as “The Pitt,” a once-operational correctional facility that has been forgotten by the world above. When a catastrophic event causes the world above to crumble, a mix of innocent civilians and hardened criminals find themselves imprisoned in the underground labyrinth, where every day is a fight for survival.
The story follows Jack (John Boyega), a former soldier with a mysterious past, who becomes an unlikely leader in the desperate struggle to escape. As the survivors face dwindling resources, constant threats from rogue factions, and the unforgiving environment of the prison, they must grapple with the moral dilemmas that arise in such extreme circumstances.
