If you want a similar feel but in book format, George R R Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series is amazing. Martin has an uncanny ability to create characters you care for and then just keep hitting them with horrible things - all the while you keeps saying "it can't get any worse" but it does. All the while you CAN NOT stop reading.
It takes place in a fantasy world but he really minimizes the fantastic elements - it is more political intrigue and family issues than sword and sorcery.
