"Knock At The Cabin" And 19 Other Movies That Will Make You Feel Like You Need To Get Some Air

I'm not sure if it's some kind of morbid curiosity we have an irrepressible urge to quench, but sometimes, there's just nothing like a good old adrenaline-inducing thriller.

With M. Night Shyamalan's Knock at the Cabin hitting theaters recently and Scream VI right around the corner, it's safe to say we're in the mood for something that gets our hearts racing.

I didn't want this list to be all about the standard jump scare horrors — although I do kinda love those, too. I wanted to list out some movies that make me tense the whole way through.

From thrillers to the more psychological, I've rounded up a few movies I turn to if I want something that fully immerses me in the world of the film and carries me along as a nervy little passenger for the next few hours.

So whether you wanna steal the tactics for escaping the situation the character has landed themselves in, or you just wanna lose yourself in a movie for a while, strap in and come along for the journey!
