Favorite "Group of People in Strange/Alien Situation" Film?

_pi_ · 06-29-2010, 02:33 PM

Hey y'all,

one of my favorite type of horror movie is the one in which a group of diverse personalities gets, for whatever reason, suck/locked/lost in a strange, even alien, situation/place and must battle unknown/alien/internal forces to survive.

Sounds too vague?

In my opinion, this type of film can be found in almost every genre, and is very common in horror. Films like Alien, The Descent, Deliverance, Event Horizon, Predator, even The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Jurassic Park, all fit the description.

So I was wondering if anyone else likes this particular type of film, if people have any specific favorites, and perhaps some obscure suggestions?

Mine is this episode from THE OUTER LIMITS where a whole neighborhood is abducted by aliens.
