"There can be only one"
Just back from seeing The Hunger Games with the IMDb Bristol team so time for another themed list. This one is named from the famous quote from Highlander and the (very flexible) rules are that the movie must feature the cast being eliminated one-by-one until only one (or a small number) remain.
Additional suggestions welcome and I will incorporate them into the main list. Titles listed in reverse chronological order and only one movie per franchise (so that's Alien over Aliens for example) and one out of any set of remakes to avoid duplication.
