Alot of films are just too predictable, I guess. I know a few films that I have watched over and over again and certain scenes STILL make me jump, although I know what's coming!

In "The Others", its when the door gets slammed in Kidman's face. In "The Exorcist III", its when the killer, wielding a big knife, suddenly appears behind a nurse. That scene builds up because the nurse is freaked out by funny noises and you expect something to happen when she opens ward doors. And it's done from afar, not close up - maybe thats a technique that works.

I suppose its the way it can lead up to a *jumpy* bit - a creepy, suspenseful, drawn out sequence of events, before the big scare??

So....... all films should use the same technique! :D
