10 Scariest Movies Where No One Dies

Admittedly, Castaway director Ron Howard's space set disaster movie definitely hits different for older audience members who actually lived through the titular mission and as such remember the ending,

But for everyone else, this intense docudrama's story of a mission to the moon manned by everyman astronauts Tom Hanks and Kevin Bacon is unbearably tense, despite its happy ending.

As each attempt to salvage the mission results in further catastrophe, the odds of survival seem slimmer and slimmer and many audience members are likely to be hiding behind their fingers, resigned to the fact that this one must be a true life tragedy in the vein of The Perfect Storm.

By the time all's well that ends well, the damage to our nerves is already done.
