It had an eerie feel to it.
I enjoy movies where they don't rely on gore or things popping out at you to keep you on the edge of your seat.
These days, thrillers and horrors have to rely on overly dramatic scenes to try and scare people.
100% agree. I really dislike the gore aspect in most cases as imagination is much better. A lot of the time once the figure, etc. is revealed it loses the suspense/mystery, etc.
I've rarely like any modern "horror" movie for that reason. Just a ton of over the top violence that takes away from the movie.
I really liked a foreign horror movie called "La Casa Muda" (Silent House). They claimed that it was shot in one long continuous take so that was interesting as well. It does have the "popping out " aspect in it however but nothing is shown/revealed really if I remember correctly. I don't mind that so much as long as the things aren't fully revealed so the suspense is still there.
