A sense of humor is good, but only if it doesn't get in the way and doesn't detract from the horror. Original killing is also important, but what I like is an interesting, cool origin and a reason for what is happening to occur. A good intelligent psychological impetus, one besides child abuse. We all know that a poor upbringing can create society's monsters, but what else does? What's also good is when a horror movie shows you something that's scary that you don't think about as scary. It's cool to see new threats and the things that really threaten people. Moral prerogative also makes horror stronger, conventional or not, it's good to have something to say. Otherwise, you're just putting another couple dinoflagellates into our cultural swimming pool. If you're interested in serious feedback, doctoring or just an opinion of your premise, feel free to IM me. I'd like to do whatever I can to help a decent movie come to pass.
