    Films that take place in a House?

    I'm looking for some good Horror/Thriller/Suspense films that take place mostly in one location, preferably a house. I am shooting a feature film and will only have one taping location available to me. I am seeking some much needed inspiration on how to pull such a thing off without being boring. Meaning 95% of the movie taking place in the house.

    My film is about the main character being trapped in a house with a foster family that tries to kill her.

    Most recently I have seen the following...

    Disturbia
    Panic Room
    Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
    Last House on the Left (Remake)

    None of those really helped though :straightface2:

    Not horror but "Beautiful Kate" takes place in one location.

    Kind of a broad subject I'm surprised you need help!

    I see you missed part where she said "and not boring"...

    High Tension (for the first half or more)
    Night of the Living Dead 90
    Inside (didn't like the film at all though)
    Amittyville (all of them)
    The Gate
    2nd story in 'Tales from the Darkside the Movie' (sweet story imo)
    The Unnameable
    Don't go in the House (sadistic film)
    The Deadly Spawn
    I haven't seen it but I think 'Of Unknown Origin" takes place in a house.


    All off the top of my head

    Not horror, but the film "Tape" takes place entirely in a motel room. Whether you'd consider it boring, depends on how much you can tolerate a talky Richard Linklater movie.
