Favorite One-Location Movies?
The Thing From Another World - 1951. Aside from some brief outside views which were obviously shot in a studio, it was all inside a frigid, claustrophobic polar installation. Even the outside views never strayed from a studio with a white, painted backdrop with a wind machine blowing plastic snow across the set. It's really a genre classic that set the stereotype for a lot of movies like that, not to mention the various sequels (especially Carpenter's excellent re-boot) and a prequel.

The Raid: Redemption, which may be my favorite action movie. Dredd (2012) isn't half bad either. I also really like Johnnie To's Breaking News, which I think qualifies and of course Die Hard. In short, if it's an action movie set in a high-rise, I'll probably like it.

Okay, part of the second act moves to a neighborhood bar, but the majority of the film takes place in George and Martha's living room.

Ever seen the original Assault On Precinct 13, then?
It's horror and not action, but Cube is another good one. No one's mentioned it yet, surprisingly.

I saw "Cube" a month ago.. The acting was so lousy, and didn't care about the movie overall.... It could have been good, though.

Sure, if you're gonna move the hyphen around it's not gonna make sense, that probably stands true for most sentences with hyphens in them. Personally I'd have swapped out "one" for "single" but the thread title is just fine.
I'll add the wonderfully brutal at times Scum into the discussion.
