Okay...Let me share a little of my perspective here, as I think I may have been misunderstood...

I love a dark, creepy, atmospheric feel...a psychological, sanity twisting mind fuck...heartbeat accelerating, pulse pounding, gut wrenching, spine tingling, afraid to turn the lights out, have to check under the bed before you go to sleep with your head covered and no limbs hanging over the edge, brain screaming terror....I mean isn't that fear induced, endorphin releasing, adrenaline rush what hooks us in the first place, and the neverending quest for that feeling, that KEEPS us hooked?.....Unfortunately...I just don't see that happening anymore, I think it pretty much ended when I was around 15, a drawback of growing up on horror?...Early burnout?....and so THAT is why I want the blood, guts and gore...So that I will at least have SOMETHING.....Now, if you COULD manage to make a movie that actually scares me, I would be eternally grateful and extremely surprised...and I'm sorry Stingy Jack, but Blair Witch Project DEFINITELY isn't it...And we actually watched that one at the drive-in, in the dark, completely surrounded by woods, with bats flying across the screen...now THAT is atmosphere:cool:
