Whittier is a small town in Alaska where almost the entire town lives in one building, Begich Towers.

The only way in and out of town is the Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel, a one lane tunnel shared between cars and trains

Edit: No fucking way

    Honestly any horror movie or thriller would be great set there. Whittier also has an extensive Cold War history, so you could do weird MKUltra shit in the military building and have people try to escape the town. The scene in my head is a patient in a hospital gown running down the tunnel being pursued by MPs when the train comes.

      oh yeah that is good stuff!

      i see psychological thriller about a whole town huddled in the endless dark of artic winter in a commie block getting increasingly paranoid of each other. hallucinogens in the tap water? or nothing at all?
