..is the 2014 German movie "Der Bau" (titled at some USA film festivals as "Kafka's The Burrow"} adapted from an unfinished 1923 story by Franz Kafka. It has a similar deteriorating high-rise tower at its center, but the life of the main character is much more interesting. This movie does not have the budget or stars of High-Rise, but while still "wild and crazy" in places is less a product of a director too full of himself. The ending is also much more satisfying. Worth a look.

can we list more "sociotope" movies? (dunno if that's the correct word, i'm referring to movies which take place in a defined space where people live and with different kinds of facilites etc.)
those come to my mind:
snowpiercer, as mentioned before
gremlins 2
delicatessen
farther:
titanic
the poseidon adventure
