Writer's Block: Fright Show

Don't usually do these writer's block questions, but any old excuse to waffle about fillums...
See now, with 'scary movies' you've got a bit of a conundrum with Scribbles, since:
a, I don't like scary movies very much as a general genre
b, I don't have to find a 'scary' movie particularly scary to enjoy it, as long as it's otherwise a good movie. There are plenty of movies that are officially under the 'horror' genre which don't frighten me at all, but are still wonderful films.
c, Conversely, a film can give me the willies so badly that I can't bear to watch it. I really don't enjoy such films.
( The nitty gritty and Recs... Long post is long )
