Your favourite film set in (mostly) 1 location

Phone Booth, Buried, Etc

Mine is The Terminal, followed by Man on a Ledge

I'd say Signs is a decent movie... they leave the farm for a little bit but mostly it's based in and around the house.
Alien could be classed as well maybe? A large chunk of the movie is in The Nostromo's corridors.

Carpenter's The Thing though is awesome. Set in Outpost 31's main building.

Can think of the film's title, bummer; about taxi-cab stories at night in different cities round the world.

And all of those already mentioned, great flicks!

Seconding Rope.

Seconding 12 Angry Men. Another good one is Shock Corridor.

Glad to see the underrated Rope getting some respect. My pick would be Rear Window.

Second rear window!

This Is Not a Test. A low-budget film about the start of nuclear war that takes place at a road block.

The movie is Jim Jarmusch's Night on Earth, and I really like that film, especially the NYC segment.

I'm sure I'm forgetting quite a few, but some of my favorite films that are set in one location include 127 Hours and Prairie Home Companion. Another favorite of mine is Lifeboat. It seems like Alfred Hitchcock specialized in these type of films.

Oh I love these kind of movies especially the ones set in just one day as well.

My two favourites that immediately come to mind are

The Breakfast Club (1985)




and

Empire Records (1995)
