I’d say Kubrick does it better personally. The feeling of dread in the Shining. Unease in A clockwork orange, awe in 2001. The atmosphere is stronger than most films.

I cannot overstate how good The Shining is. I'd only ever seen it secondhand through the memes because I was too young to remember it and it was just a fabulous movie to sit through. Mr Grady in the bathroom still creeps me out.

I'd add Spielberg to the list too. Saving Private Ryan, Jurassic Park, Schindler's List.

All completely different, but they're near perfect
