10 Amazing TV Scenes Shot In One Take

10. The Shootout - Stranger Things

Though infinitely more famous for introducing millions of young people to Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill, season 4 episode 4 of Stranger Things actually contains another scene that is expertly pulled off.

Whilst Eleven is completing her training, Mike, Will, and Jonathan are all confined to barracks at the Byers family home. They get some protection from a couple of agents though - they're not idiots.

It's a good thing they did, because the house ends up getting stormed by a bunch of military personnel, which leads to a huge gunfight.

The scene was filmed in one long, continuous take in order to capture the mayhem and frenzy of a home invasion. Charlie Heaton, who plays Jonathan, was grateful for this decision, as he said it made the scene feel more real.

It's a shame that the rest of the action in Dear Billy somewhat overshadows the technical ability needed to pull off a scene like this. With all the other-worldly goings on in Hawkins, it's weird to think that relatively run-of-the-mill action sequence was done in such a spectacular way.

Still, when have the team behind Stranger Things ever done things by halves?
