The Crapsack World is a term used to describe such particularly brutal and/or dark place to live. In general, a Crapsack World is a dystopia that offers little to no hope for the characters involved and embodies the nature of their setting; such worlds tend to be Hell on Earth, and can vary, depending on the creator, from comedic yet violent (such as Happy Tree Friends and, arguably, South Park) to outright sadistic and without hope (Warhammer and the comic book canon of Judge Dredd).
