I think it is just HARDER to scare anyone anymore....the movies are not LESS scary...real life is just MORE scary....unfortunately...the MPAA keeps filmakers from keeping up....

That's true to an extent. However, the goriest movies are not the scariest , at least to me. A movie becomes more comical when there is over-the-top gore. Movies like The Excorcist, The Shining, Halloween , Suspiria etc rely on suspense far more than blood and guts, and they are amongst the most chilling movies ....so we have become more desensitized, but I don't think the MPAA not allowing the upping of gore is the problem. I think you get to an age and scares just don't happen anymore. Getting chills is sufficient for me now
