This is a summary of the Nmap usage scene in the movie 13: Game of Death. Thanks to Ithilgore for writing this and also sending screenshots. For the screenshots and more info, see the Nmap Movies page.
I saw the movie you mentioned in the list, "13: Game of Death" and
have confirmed the nmap sighting.
The story goes something like this:
There is this guy, the protagonist who loses his job near the
beginning of the movie and is on the brink of total poverty, when some
strange men call him and offer him a great amount of money in exchange
for his participating in their secret game. However this involves
doing several acts of horrible and gross things, many of which are
crimes. There is also this woman friend of his, who works as a system
administrator at the company he was fired from. At some point, she
finds out about the name of the deadly "game" he is involved with and
tries to collect more info on that. So she first googles the name of
the game and after she finds that they have a website called
13beloved.com she launches Nmap :) and scans both TCP and UDP ports. She
uses a windows version of Nmap since the workstation she is at is a
Windows XP one, as shown from the pictures. The scan results show an
open port for Remote Administration and she then tries to brute force
the password. The 13game guys, however, detect her intrusion and let
her think she succeeded at the hack attempt by allowing her as a
trusted user with the BlackIce Security System (ibm). (pictures included)
After the supposedly successful hack, they remove the site from the
internet so that when she later goes to testify to the police about
the illegality of it, she has no solid proof about it. (another thing
is that the law enforcement was actually controlled from the 13game
guys)
