I think thats the problem nowadays. Finding a director who knows what good horror is. Being able to blend a couple of elements together successfully. To me, horror has been so-so recently. Saw has been the only movie that really rocked my world. Hostel was fun but it didnt really bring in the jump factor or creepiness I love so much. It was a good flick, dont get me wrong, but it was missing some elements. And movies like Wolf Creek and Grudge and Hills HAve Eyes, I was so disappointed. No, we need so directors that arent afraid to out on a limb and take some chances. Some producers and studios who say, you know what, I dont think we have any movies out there that are really challenging our viewers. I think we need to bring back some of the old elements. Thats what made horror so successful to begin with.

What can make a great horror film is when a director can properly mix a least two of the types together.

To be honest i love them all. But seeing every horror movie ever made, i have never jumped seeing any horror movie in my life. Not one single one. But my favorite ones are the most sadistic, twisted, and sickest movies, especially japanese horror movies and one at the top of my head is Faces of Death.

I like a movie that can really creep me out even after it is over but movies like that are hard to find.

I have to agree with everything you just said. The best horror movies are the ones that have both.

I think something should creep you out. That way it has a much stronger way of affecting one's mind.

I picked out "creeped me out" & "wtf", gross is still very important but for a movie to scare me more...the first two are the most important. But the WTF's cannot be cheapos.
