They're not exactly the same, but there's a hint of similarity. It's just this movie is like a thousand times more hardcore than He Won't Kill, She Won't Die and the roles are reversed. Watched the latter first, and really liked the concept. If you're open to "weird/strange" movies, then these two will fit your palate.
