Dramatic fireworks - one room dramas and other social nightmares
"l'Enfer c'est les autres" -- Jean Paul Sartre
Hell is other people.
Heated discussions, dinner parties turning into nightmares, old memories coming back to haunt, painful confessions. Many of these are basicly 'one room dramas', but not all of them. And in turn, not all 'one room dramas' fit into this list, because many of them are horror films and (crime) thrillers like Saw, Cube, 1408, Rear Window and Pontypool. Those are great films too for another list!
But here, I've tried to avoid the "put eight stereotypes into a small cube and let them fight for their lives" and focus more on the dialogue driven socio-psychological 'dramatic thrillers'.
