Is there a name for games where you shoot but don't control the movement?

An example would be Call of Juarez

Possibly there is a Steam filter with these kinds of games?

The on-rails style reminds me of games like Time Crisis. Ah, the memories.

My favorite was Deadly Tide - not an arcade game but on oldschool windows PC, had like 8 discs or something.
