Thats it. Thats what makes you jump out of your seat.

Actually, I'm talking about a different kind of scary - the scary that makes you walk out of the theatre and think about things. The kind of scary that makes you lie awake at night. For me, it would be films like the Exorcist or Stigmata (because I'm Catholic) or the first Nightmare on Elm Street that make you think about the movie and shiver - after you watched it. That's what I'm talking about. Totally different to a film like the Shining - not better or worse, just different.
