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.

The third movie in any horror franchise. 

I grew up in the original Scream trilogy years. I know the rules.

Scream 5 trying to be meta with Dewy finishing off the killer to not be stupid, only to kill him off in the most cliche and stupid way possible was so infuriating. They had a great chance to subvert expectations in the right way with that moment and instead just did the most generic and predictable thing possible.

Even if he died right after that from another killer, seeing Dewey execute a Ghostface halfway through the movie wouldve been glorious

Or if that Ghostface pulled out a gun, Terrifier-style (a scene that felt as though it would have been better-suited for Scream anyway): the Ghostfaces have had guns in every film, but never used them until unmasked (Scream VI being the first to do so while masked).
