for me - with any kind of supernatural/sci-fi, the key is not 'reality' but that the film follows its own internal logic.

being john malkovich was one that i loved - not because it made any sense in the real world, but because the sense it made was internally consistent - i liked both blair witch and sixth sense for the same reason - it all came togehter

i used to really chafe at the freddy films because everytime we'd be told that something (not fearing him, burying his bones, etc.) would kill him and everytime it was nonsense - that just felt cheap
