VERY few horror movies scare me these days, but the ones the do, are to do
with pitch black forest (and sounds) and someone just staring at you.

So, Blair Witch Project is one that gets me, only seen it once. When watching it, I
imagine myself in their position. What I would?

And then there's Halloween, the scene(s) where Myers just stares at you. I LOVE THOSE SCENES. Yet, I hate those.

There are movies that jump scare you, and movies that just scare you.

Blood and gore does not equal horror, get that right horror directors. Mess with the mind (no, go away Paranormal Activity).

Honestly, I really enjoyed Paranormal Activity, at least the first one. The tension worked well for me. And I love horror that you can't estimate... I mean, a mad chainsaw-killer? Put a bullet to his head - end of story.

But something like good 'ol Samara(Ring)/Sadako (Ringu) that you can't kill, that has powers you can do nothing against... that freaks me out.

That's why invisible forces like in PA work for me. One day they just let your lights flicker... next day, they break your spine - and you can't do crap about it and don't know when its going to happen...

It is what scares most people, not only in horror movies: Losing control.
