Yes, scenes that make you stop breathing and blinking your eyes, what can you recommend?

Right now, I can remember 3 movies that have this.
"The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" - in the mexican standoff scene, I could REALLY feel the stress and the inevitability of the situation.

"The Thing" - the paranoia was in the air for pretty much whole second half of the movie.

"Alien" - not so much as the previous two, but still pretty nice.

No Country For Old Men.

The film is slow as fuck, but deliberately so. Everything is so methodical, so stoic, that the whole film just builds upon itself through every scene.

Fucking awesome flick and definitely deserved the Oscar.
