2. Sorcerer and its original version Wages of Fear
Both films involve the transport of very unstable explosives in order to put out a fire. Due to conditions they have to be driven over very unstable territory. A group of "expendable" men are selected to transport the explosives by truck. Edge of the seat from there on out.

12. Rear Window
The original of course, with James Stewart. He's also my favorite actor.

14. Hard to say. "Psycho" and "Rear Window" are both good choices.
As is "Wait Until Dark."
