I usually watch tv while I eat, and quickly realized that horror and bisque aren’t the ideal match. $200 for me.

    Spooky movies don’t scare me. Neither do horror movies.

    Jump scares rely on you being emotionally invested in the characters, and I’m not. I watch more objectively. A surprise is a surprise, but most jump scares are pretty well telegraphed if you know what to look for.

    If I were like 13 and I didn’t? I dunno, $20 was a lot when I was 13. That was like an album, a 2 litre of soda, some candy, and some crisps.

      Jump scares are cheap. It’s the sound that usually gets me. That said, horror movies have never made me jump as hard as hearing an unexpected gunshot in rust.
