There are very few words in the dictionary that when spoken or heard we get the feeling of fear and excitement at the same time, one of those words is Tiger. You wish to see them but not face them.

You can try that practically, just visit any tiger safari, not the ones that are bounded but the wild ones with no boundaries, and there is a saying in these places that 'you have 1% chance of sighting the tiger but the tiger has sighted you 100%.'

So I have sorted some of my favorite best tiger movies of all time and made a list that you may like.

These movies with tigers in them are not only with 1 or 2 scenes of tiger attacks but the whole movie is based on tigers.
