At least the 90´s formula had nice persecutions and moments of "RUUN YOU IDIOT! NO NO NO! DON'T GO IN THERE!" That made you yell at the screen. This is just... Watching every-day things going on.
Then there's also those "Ghost hunting" shows, which frankly get old really fast Guy #1: Did you hear that? Guy #2:Hear what? *coat rack moves* OMGWTFDIDYOUSEETHATOMG2SPOOKY4ME
Well I miss movies like Blair Witch Project - many ppl may poke fun at it but it haunted it me for fucking weeks ; was scared to see.... 'weird trees' ^^
I remember a scene from that old movie "Santa claus is coming to town" Where that old guy is in a blizzard. SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME AS A KID, I AM NOT EVEN JOKING
SOMETIMES .... hahahaha at least in horror movies it's like a 80% guarantee that the sequel WILL suck ^^
