Seems like an odd question. Of course adding a gun to a situation changes things a lot. Speaking of horror in films, when a disturbed person pulls out a gun, it gets very scary. Things have just become deadly. When Im deeply involved with the characters and their safety, it's scares me plenty.
It's all in the context. If you're in the middle of an over-the-top zombie, vampire, werewolf action adventure, seeing a gun isn't likely to be scary.
