Listening to this song:

Jumpscares are the absolute worst. I hate them. Bane of the whole horror movie/game industry. Stupidest and laziest way to convey "horror". Makes me mad.
I actually really like one movie that takes the jump scare concept to an execution of artform level. There's no fake cat or coat hanger scares. They pretty much let you know every time that it's coming rather than hide it. And you jump anyway. Then you curse them cuz you jumped anyway even though you knew it was coming. Over and over again. Kind of fun it's called Drag Me To Hell (by Sam Raimi).
There was one jumpscare in the American version of Ju-On that was really good too, IMO,
not that it's worth spoilering a bad movie, but, when she's riding the bus. Specifically because it's unexpected to put a jumpscare in a daylight-filled public place.
I'm really feeling this one. Great use of light and just enough detail.
