The "better" gore the better. When I watch movies like Story of rikki and brain dead, the gore used is so un realistic it is rather funny. Buckets of fake blood and clay effects do nothing for me.
I like gore to add to the terror and reality of what was supposed to of happened in the movie. That is why the rape scene in Irreversable is so brutal. Lots of movies have rape in them, however Irreversable's rape scene is so realistic it made me think about what a rape victim would go through. I doesnt glorify rape, it makes you sick.
Also if there is a gorey scene in a movie I like the effects to be realistic as well. I would rather have one throat cutting scene like in High Tension than all the blood and guts of a Rikki or brain dead.
But thats just me.
