Tower defence films

[robfosters]

I watched assault on precinct 13 last night and enjoyed it. I like those films where they are holed up somewhere and defending themselves. I call them tower defence because they're like the games

Has anyone got any more I could watch please?

Were you watching the remake?

If so, I suggest John Carpenter's "Assault on Precinct 13" (1976)

 

[rancid-a]

Ginger Snaps 3 - against werewolves.
Brotherhood of the Wolf - against....well no spoilers
You're Next - against intruders

There must be loads

 

[Kosmiche]

Dawn of the Dead? Holed up in a shopping mall fighting off the zombie hordes.

 

[Russinating]

28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later?

Also a lot of cop thrillers but not sure that's what you're after.

 

[Chicken #16]

Ironclad?

 

[Rising]

Home Alone

Home Alone

The actual defence bit of that film is about 15 minutes long. It's a stupid film anyway. Ridiculous castle doctrine propoganda.

Anyway, OP, Panic Room is sort of along the lines you're looking for.
