Between taking down the cartel in a secret tunnel under the Mexican border, a Nazi hunting Jews, and kids running from dinosaurs, all different kinds of movies can give audiences sweaty palms if shot right.

There are hundreds of amazing intense scenes that can elicit all kinds of emotions from viewers, but according to Reddit, these are the best. Despite sitting in a multiplex and not moving an inch, these movies were still able to make audiences feel physically exhausted from the sheer tension in the scenes.

Trigger Warning: Mentions of rape and sexual assault.

The Adrenaline Shot Scene – Pulp Fiction

For the most part, Pulp Fiction is evenly paced, as it goes from one entertaining pop culture-filled conversation to the next, and there’s the occasional stand-off scene sprinkled in for good measure. But tensions are raised when Mia overdoses after snorting what she thought was cocaine, but was actually heroin.

In a list of what they think are the most intense scenes in cinema, Mr_pb_hole includes the infamous adrenaline shot scene. It’s ironically the most heart-pumping scene in the movie, as Vincent needs to stab Mia in the exact right spot in the chest, or else she’s gone for good. Along with being the toughest sequence for audiences to watch, it’s also exactly why Lance would be the worst roommate.

The Car Scene – Zodiac

Zodiac, the epic biopic thriller directed by David Fincher, is full of intense scenes, as it follows the real-life serial killer, the Zodiac Killer. The movie is now considered a Fincher classic and it’s the ultimate Fincher movie. He’s the greatest thriller director of this generation, and Zodiac combines all of his trademarks into one glossy-looking melting pot. But despite how great the film looks, it’s no less gritty than any of Fincher’s other movies.

Of all of the scenes, saj175 claims that the scene where the Zodiac Killer has a mother and her baby in the car is the most intense of them all. Every second is excruciating for the viewer, as the Killer tells the mother to throw the baby out of the moving vehicle. But ironically, though it’s the most intense, she’s one of the few victims to flee the scene unscathed.

The Border Crossing – Sicario

Again, Sicario is so full of intense scenes, whether it’s being surrounded by members of the cartel on the highway or the final face-off. But Ubi_Muff cites the border crossing as the most intense scene in the movie. What makes the sequence so heart-racing is that it’s shot so well.

The way it’s shot is a testament to director Denis Villeneuve’s genius, as audiences watch the task force siege the tunnel under the Mexican border in black-and-white night vision. The way it’s hard to make out exactly what is going on, as any black object could be a rock or a cartel member, makes it that much more intense.

The Opening Scene – Inglourious Basterds

Without Christoph Waltz, Inglourious Basterds would still have been a great movie, but the actor elevated the film tenfold and he’s Quentin Tarantino’s greatest discovery. His role of Hans Landa, a.k.a. the “Jew Hunter,” is scarier than actual horror villains. That’s exactly why Wav__ believes the opening scene in Basterds, which is a whole chapter and lasts for 20 minutes, is one of the most intense scenes in cinema history.

As the Reddit user notes, Tarantino has always been great at building tension, but the opening of the 2009 movie makes viewers feel uneasy because tragic events like that actually happened during World War II. And what’s worse is that it teases the idea that Perrier LaPadite may actually get away with hiding the jews under the basement.

Velociraptors In The Kitchen – Jurassic Park

Jurassic Park is again another movie that has so many intense scenes that could have been chosen, such as the first T-rex attack in the rain and the Dilophosaurus chasing Wayne Knight. But Sweaty_Opportunity_1 chose the iconic scene in the climax of the movie where the children are being stalked by the velociraptors.

Between Lex attempting to trick the dinosaurs and just getting into the air vent by the skin of her teeth, the sequence is a perfect example of why Stephen Spielberg is the master of knowing where to put the camera. Even the way the raptors first appear as silhouettes in the building, the whole final act builds tension until the very end.

The Curb Stomp – American History X

As if a gritty crime drama about a neo-Nazi isn’t going to be intense. American History X sees Derek Vinyard turn into a white supremacist after his father is murdered by a group of black men. What follows is a breakout of extreme violence motivated by nothing other than racism.

According to 1nva11d, the most heart-stopping scene comes right before Derek is charged by police. The character forces a black man to bite the curb right before stomping on the back of his head. The way Derek is so adamant that he wants to harm the man even knowing that the police were around the corner makes the character even more terrifying.

The Ferry Scene – The Dark Knight

It’s a scene that generally goes overlooked compared to the many other great moments in The Dark Knight, and it’s low-key one of the most thought-provoking sequences too. Though there are loads of intense scenes in The Dark Knight trilogy, the ferry sequence is the runaway scene according to movie_buff_.

What makes the scene so great is that it holds up a mirror to the audience, and it makes them think about what they’d do in the same situation. As a ferry full of inmates and a ferry full of innocent civilians are in control of each other’s lives, they have to come to a decision as to which ferry should be blown up before they’re both blown up.

The Spahn Ranch Scene – Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is much more relaxed than the usual Tarantino affair. Most of the movie is all about soaking in the 60s vibe, but the tone changes dramatically when Cliff takes a trip to the old film set, Spahn Ranch.

As hippies have taken over the ranch, the tension builds as Cliff worries about what they might have done with the owner. Fenwayswimmr believes it to be one of the most intense movie scenes, and it’s by far the most intense sequence in the entire two-hour and 50-minute movie, as the ultra-violent finale is more slapstick comedy than dramatic.

The Castration Scene – Hard Candy

Hard Candy follows Hayley, the best friend of Donna, a girl who was raped and murdered, exact revenge on the man she thinks committed the crime. It’s such an overlooked movie, as so few people have ever heard of the thriller. Archamasse thinks it features one of the most intense movie scenes based on their experience seeing it in a cinema.

They mention that it’s “the only time I’ve seen people leave the movie theatre just because they couldn’t bear to watch.” The scene in question is when the 14-year-old Hayley attempts to castrate Jeff, the rapist, while he’s awake. It turns out that she was only pretending to perform the surgery all along and she had just numbed the area with ice. But the whole time, Jeff (and the audience) thought Hayley was performing the surgery as she described each part of the procedure in detail.

The Shootout – Heat

Heat is the ultimate heist movie, and it’s three full hours of well-orchestrated, tactical cat and mouse chase sequences. There are so many great scenes in the movie, but the most intense of them all is a no-brainer.

Yolkpuke points out the street shootout between the robbers and the police midway through the movie as the most intense, which happens right after the crew pulls off the biggest bank heist yet. The way the police handle the situation is so well researched and realistic that, according to Esquire, they even use the scene in the army to train US Marine recruits.
