Oh man, im really gonna have to think about this one for awhile. I hate the jump scares as well. They're fine for cheap popcorn flicks like Deep Blue Sea and the like but for aggressive dark horror movies, its just pathetic.
Another problem i've noticed is that horror movies seem to only focus on one thing nowadays. This movie has lots of gore, this movie is really smart, this one has good acting, this one has a good plot, this one has lots of scary monsters, etc... But no one is able to combine them anymore. Its just one or the other.
People think horror is so simple but its not, it takes thought. That's why i like foreign horror movies so much because they're not held down by the ridiculous notions of Hollywood as to gearing every movie to what they think will make the most money.
Wow sorry about the rant. Gonna have to think hard about your question there.
