from Zodiac. The most tense scene in an already extremely suspenseful movie.
This and the "I'm going to throw your baby out the window" car scene

Tavern scene in Inglourious Basterds. And opening scene as well. For tension my mind keeps going back to that movie.
Meh. Aliens was great action movie. Alien was the great suspense movie.

The coin toss scene is the one that did it for me.When No Country For Old Men's hotel sequence was playing, that's when I realized it would go down to be a modern classic.
Can I just say the entirety of The Blair Witch Project or Paranormal Activity? God the pacing in those are so good. Yeah, it's all just one big lead up to one scare, but they are so consistent in their descent and subtlety that I can just gush over their simple yet elegant scripts all day!
Just got through watching Gravity, and I'm gonna go ahead and say the whole damn movie.
I seriously can't believe no one hasn't mentioned this. I came into this thread expecting this to be every post.
Also the ending of Blood Simple is fucking amazing.
What movie is that from?
Came to post this. Masterclass in suspenceOpening scene of Drive.
Breaking Bad - Season 4 Episode 11 - Crawl Space.
The final sequence of the episode where everything appears to simultaneously collapse around the central characters efffectively built a huge amount of suspense as there is no easy escape. It's heightened with the dramatic irony present as the audience knows the escape route that had been planned simply cannot be afforded, and the revelation in the basement is something I found incredibly suspenseful and certainly one of my favourite scenes in the show.
Excellent shout. That whole film is so good.
De Palma has a great eye for suspense sequences. The train station chase in Carlito's Way with the escalators scene in particular.
I would counter the notion that Aliens does not have suspense because it is considered an action film. The whole build up of the search of the colony buildings is amazing with not an alien in sight or shot fired.
What is movie is the baseball bat scene?
