Actually that opening scene in "Cliffhanger" when the girl was hanging on to her dear life. Since i'm not a big fan of heights that one definitely made me hold my breath. Hoping she could just keep hangin' on. :eek:

Men of Honor when they are actually holding their breath. I tried to do it along with them and failed horribly.

Alvin 05-08-06 08:37 AM

I do that. Whenever someone is holding their breath in a film I see if I can match it, and usually fail. Men of Hunour was such an awful premise for a film...

MASSIVEminiature 05-08-06 11:26 AM

In a criminally underseen horror called Lighthouse, a man is hiding in a bathroom stall as a killer washes his hands. The killer turns to leave, walking down a set of steps. The man hiding in the stall knocks over a can and it begins to slowly roll towards the steps. If the killer reaches the door before the can reaches the steps the man hiding will survive. Incredibly suspenseful.
