12 Most Anxiety-Inducing Sci-Fi Movies EVER

9. Gravity

Right At Your Door
Warner Bros. Pictures

Directed by Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban helmer Alfonso Cuaron, 2013's Gravity is a sparse and stripped back space based thriller.

The film sees Sandra Bullock's astronaut heroine stuck alone in space when a routine check up on her station results in the loss of her companions via a pesky asteroid attack.

That's it in terms of plot, meaning the entirety of the almost completely real-time action in this "got to get home" horror is watching helplessly as Bullock's odds of survival slowly deplete alongside her oxygen supply.

A tense and thrilling white knuckle ride, this is a movie you need to see... Once. Good luck getting through this one again.
