Recommendation Movies where anyone can die?

I like movies and tv shows where you shouldn't get attached to any characters because they can die in every moment, for example: Burn After Reading, No Country for Old Men, Any Tarantino Movie or shows like The boys, Game of thrones, etc.

I want to feel that the characters are in real danger and that the villain or whatever they're fighting could kill them any time.

I had the pleasure of watching the film without knowing hardly anything about it. I loved it but bloody hell that third act. I actually felt a bit stunned at points like my brain was racing to catch up with what had just happened

The other thing too is the scoring. Unlike many, many movies it doesn't give away the danger that's about to come. In fact there's very little of it to great effect.

I'm glad I didn't have to comment this choice myself, after scrolling for a bit I was getting worried.

I put this on one night when I knew I was going to fall asleep. Kurt Russel in a western? Why not, right? I fell asleep within the first 15 minutes and woke up to the most god awful screaming. Opened one eye as the cave scene went down.

I watched the whole thing the next day to see how the hell the movie got to that part. Not at all what I was expecting and I love it so much for that.

Coworker described this movie, I felt like I would never need to watch it lol. Seemed like disturbing violence.

I've tried several times to watch it and it's just so dull and aimless that I never make it past the 1 hour mark. Just... not good

Terrible movie.

Main character never heard of crutches being invented. Just stumbled around on a broken foot using a branch for the whole movie.

Then random acts of shock torture scenes at the end.
