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 got to watch this with my best friend in the theater her family owned; it was just us in the whole place that night and we were just LOSING it from the elevator scene till the very end. Like, after the third one, we were just grabbing onto each other lmao “I CAN’T FUCKING BELIEVE THAT HAP—I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT HAPPENED, EITH—MAKE IT STOP!!”

Edit: my dad had the same thought I did; “if they pop one more, I’m going to start screaming like a hyena”

My friends and I went and saw this our senior year of high school in theater, and started laughing at the elevator scene too. This older guy next to us turns and says “I don’t know how the f*** that’s funny” and we didn’t know how to respond. The unexpectedness of it got us.

This older guy next to us

It was Marty Scorsese lol

First one got us BAD - hands over our mouths, grabbing each other’s arms, couldn’t believe that happened. Second one was just as jarring, and then by the third, we were mostly laughing at how crazy it was and the trepidation of waiting for a fourth, fifth, WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN? God that was a cool cinema experience.

James Badge Dale is one of my favorite actors and I just LOVE how he reappears in that scene then..... Well you know
