Believe it or not, Nightmare on Elm Street movies never scared me. They were more like commercials for new home remodeling.
Hitchcock movies are scary. Best monster to come along in the past 50 years is the Alien. Prior to that The Blob was king. In 'The Blob' there was one scene that made the movie so realistic when the Blob attacked the movie audience and the entire audience hauled fucking ass out of the theatre. Real people run AWAY from the monster, not stay in the house.
Those Omen movies had scary music, but got boring because if it was real, the kid would have gotten his ass kicked after the first evil manifestation.
Blood and guts do not a horror movie make, suspense and shocks and 'unseen horror' spark the imagination which is scarier.
