What are some great movies that took place only in one location?


  1. If you think about it, a majority of The Matrix took place on the ship

  3. If you don't count the first (and last) few minutes, 10 Cloverfield Lane is confined to one single bunker for basically the entire movie.

  4. Rear Window. It’s pretty much a single room for the whole movie.

  13. I saw this movie about a bus that had to speed around the city, keeping its speed over fifty, and if its speed dropped, it would explode! I think it was called “The Bus That Couldn’t Slow Down.”

  14. There's some exteriors of New York, but around 95-98% of My Dinner with Andre is at a restaurant table. Great movie I could not believe would even be a decent movie, given it's two guys eating dinner.

  15. Arq on Netflix. Nice time bendy story set in a single house, with all of five or six actors total. I am surprised how few people have seen it.
