99% of "scary" (lol yeah right) movies either bore me to tears OR become unintentional comedy.

"The Descent" OTOH is not one of the above IMO and is a seriously disturbing movie that goes way beyond "jump-scares"

Today's viewers probably don't have the patience of the slow burn of Alien.
The zombie genre is typically jump scare stuff, I'm trying to think of movies that were scary to me recently. I know "It Follows" I enjoyed, but can't recall just how scary it was.
I tend to prefer psychological horror movies. Not really scary but more creepy.

Like The Changeling (1980), The Haunting (1964) and The Innocents (1963). The movie Magic (1978) creeped me out.

Not to mention Karen Black in the one story of Trilogy Of Terror (1975) "Amelia" was the stuff of nightmares as was Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (1973) and The World Beyond (1978). Tame by today's standards, they scared the heck out kids back in the day. I still get a kick out of The World Beyond.

I spoke with a couple I know earlier today, they're quite the pair of movie nuts. Told them the plan with The Descent, the immediate reaction I got was "Yeah don't do that. Do not do that."

Hahaha, now I'm genuinely curious to see what all the fuss is about.

Starting him out light, first it's NOPE.

Is NOPE a horror movie? Haven't seen that one yet. Get out had some very tense moments in it for sure. I guess you need to find what really creeps out your kid, obviously jump scares don't cut it.

NOPE is technically a Horror flick, but in my book it was a just a big disappointment. I was expecting more. I feel like JP has good ideas that he interjects with blips of laziness. Yuen and Kaluuya are worthy of better writing. Could have done with less Keke Palmer honestly, the focus on her in the end got tedious, fast.

Going into The Descent with zero expectations though. No comedy career to influence me.
