A great little indie thriller, set in a single small house throughout the entire film, yet it never once gets slow or boring. Worth tracking down.

Not exactly a great film - but 'Death and the Maiden' is another one that comes to mind - much like ClosetLand - the majority of the film is in one location, with just 2 main actors.
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Nearly all of it takes place on the Enterprise bridge and the Reliant bridge, which were the same set.

The Thing.
STAG
kept me entertained. they only used one house.
it was about a guy who comes home and finds that his friends have thrown him a surprise bachelor party with two strippers. during the party one of the strippers accidentally gets killed when the boys get too rough and they hold the other stripper hostage from calling the cops until they can get their story straight and they end up trying to stab each other in the back. unpredictable.

Another good film with few locations that comes to mind is "Bound".
That one's a forgotten gem. :beer:

Unless you saw Very Bad Things, or knew a bit about the plot, then the film seems like a lower budget, just as crappy movie.
Wasn't Mario Van Peebles in that? Loved him in Jaws 4...
Two Girls and A Guy...one house, two girls, one strong performance by Downey....one mediocre movie.
