Buried: The plot.

A man wakes up in a coffin to find only darkness; with only a lighter and a mobile phone screen to light the musky tomb, he comes to the realization he's trapped. A film totally focused around a man trapped in a box seems like a risky idea, but during entrapment he encounters various nightmares. Contacting people via video message and phone is one of the main aspects of the film, I'd go as far as saying its a glorified orange mobile advertisement. On one occasion a snake enters the coffin. This is more of a dark suspense thriller than a horror, but the increasing anger and proximate chlostrophobia make this film a tense watch.
