If You Are About To Fly, Don’t Watch These Airplane Crash Movies

If you are a solo flier, the one thing we always worry about is the creep sitting next to us. In Red Eye, the “creep” is taken to a whole new level as he turns out to be a terrorist forcing a woman to be part of an assassination plot.

Cillian Murphy is completely creepy as Jackson Rippner, a man who makes himself at home on an airplane sitting next to an unsuspecting Rachel McAdams. The two are on a red-eye and Jackson’s cool demeanor turns ice cold after takeoff.

He explains to McAdams’ Lisa Reisert that if she does not cooperate, Jackson’s assassin accomplice will kill her father. Okay, so it may not be a scenario we truly would have to worry about, but that doesn’t remove the creep factor from some of the passengers we find ourselves next to on an airplane.
