Kino jumpscares?

>>86200940
Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2

IMO not really.

Jump scares are intrinsically cheap and skillless. It's like, if you tickle someone and they laugh and you go around calling yourself a comedian. It's bullshit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RGtC2S22Z0

the lawn mower scene in sinister got me really good

My favorites are the "cold" jumpscares, those where nothing is directly jumping at you, but something horribly surprising freezes your blood for a second. Like a simple and silent cut to the monster's face or an unexpected close-up.

>>86201021

I think that's different...I mean, the threat of a scare is definitely something that can contribute to a creepy atmosphere

I can't do that jumpscare shit, I just can't deal with the loud noises. It's not even scary it's just the threat that at some point a prick is gonna yell in my ear.

Reminder that any movie where monsters move in a quick, twitchy manner and screech autistically to create a jump scare effect is low-brow trash.

>>86201358
it was pretty great the first hour at least, I can't think of any other movie that actually makes you feel as claustrophobic as the descent

>>86201787
As Above so Below is pretty good

Literally the only one

I love the slow spooky stuff

It's literally inpossible not to flinch the first time you see this. I actually liked the movie except for the bad CGI.

That was scary when I watched it. I live in hueland and that shit got me worked up.

>>86201358
You're gay

>>86201021
I dunno there's a difference between being startled by a jumpscare (something easily accomplished by toasters) and being scared by one. Really good jumpscares are ones that I end up replaying in my head over and over.

>>86201251
The only answer
Possibly the scene in The Shining when Jack jumps out from behind the pillar and axes Halloran

The scene in the Witch where Black Phillip gores the father on to the pile of wood was the best use of jumpscare I've seen in a while.

>>86200940
Best I've ever seen

>>86201492
Dont watch it, its overrated trash

>>86201059
Learned that you can see the alien in the bushes, and the prevailing theory is at that time in the movie is that the aliens were retreating and leaving their wounded behind, and thats one of the aliens that were left behind panicked it tries to hide away and seeing the coast is clear it just runs away

>>86201175
My fave too. The part in the church in 28 Days Later where Cillian Murphy says "hello?" to the room of bodies and two of them just stand up and look at him creeped me out when I first saw it.

>>86201194
This scared the fucking shit of me in the theater. It just comes out of nowhere.

There's a good one in The Devil's Advocate, best watched unspoiled.

I like stuff that's more visual that auditory. Loud bangs produce the same reaction in every case, but when you shock visually there's a much broader spectrum of fears to tap into.

Would any movie really be scary if we could go into them 100% sure that there'd be no bite for all the bark a movie could conjure with it's atmosphere? No threat? I think that just by being such a common convention in horror, a movie that lacks jumpscares completely can get undue praise for it, even when that movie still derives tension from the expectation of jumpscares being there like any other "cheap" horror film - essentially standing on the shoulders of giants. In that case, I wouldn't even call it a subversion, just incomplete.

I mean, what's a scary movie that either
A) has no jumpscares
or
B) doesn't have jumpscares but makes you scared/tense/uncomfortable by making you expect them?

>>86200940
The stair sequence from Annabelle is possibly the only reason to watch that dumpster fire.

>>86206294
B tends to stay with you much longer than A. People don't remember Alien for the cat scare they remember it for the dread. Also compare It Follows with Wish Upon.

That one scene in The Grudge where she is running from the ghost and finally makes it to her room safely. The previous chase scene lasted a while with all the dramatic music etc, so it finally calms down when she makes it inside. Someone knocks at the door and everyone is 100% sure its the ghost. She looks through the peephole and sees its just her boyfriend coming to check on her. Relieved, you unclench for some exposition or dialogue, but then she opens the door and nobody is there. That grudge 'croak' echoes louder than ever and my whole body was on pins and needles.

>>86205935
Watched this movie unspoiled, thinking it was a courtroom drama.

That scene scared the absolute fuck out of me.

only correct answer.

Jumpscares are cheap when you overuse them as much as you can, but when placed after setting the mood for quite some time there's nothing wrong with them

The Vvitch and Blair Witch Project have 0 jump scares, so you know, keep the low brow jump scares to Platinum Dunes and the Paranormal Activity movies.

>>86207045
agreed, plus I don't think there's anything wrong with breaking the tension so that you can start building it up again.

>>86207212
The Witch had a couple mild ones.

The Gift had 1 jumpscare and it was pretty neat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8zaoRaWt34

>>86201059

>*yells at the television in Spanish*

Ahahahahahaha I don't remember that part.

>>86207258
>The Witch had a couple mild ones.

Not really. I don't even remember one. When Caleb wakes up?

>>86207377
im a different guy, but when the pedo witch grabs the boys head with the gross hand during the kiss is jumpscarish

>>86207377
The part where he kills the dad was jumpscarish, I could be remembering incorrectly though.

>>86207505
eh a little but I was never jumped from my seat - its not that kinda movie.

Easily the scariest moment is the early on scene with the candle light and the witch and the baby

>>86207547
The goat does come out of nowhere IIRC, but the sound effects are low key.

Yeah I hated the part in The Shining 3D when the dog mask came at you with a loud screeching piercing scream

Or the ending when the camera zooms in on Jack Nicholson as he moves his eyes menacingly and you hear a laugh.

>>86201059
can you really call something with that much buildup a "jumpscare"

>>86207707
Pretty much every classic horror movie had one or two jumpscares. That is, a moment when something suddenly appears that is meant to surprise you.

>>86201251
The best.

Wish I could have seen this first hand in a theater though, it's really fucked.

>>86208525
>>86208569

True

Halfway through it was like they decided "Shit we made it too scary, better give it some lore and shit". The Further crap basically made it into an adventure movie with horror pretensions.

Jumpscares are absolute bullshit and are always cheap. If a film is good enough to frighten you, why would it ever be necessary to have jumpscares? The ONLY time to have one is if it's a fake one but even that is an obnoxious cliche at this point.

Great scene, I love the hand one too, at least the buildup because there's a moment of disbelief. The alien reaches under the door but there's no music or anything to accompany what is basically a jumpscare, it just happens. Too bad they ruined it straight away.

This one really was masterful. Its one of the only jumpscenes in the movie too, but it leaves you tense for the rest of the entire film because you keep expecting another one whenever the same camera technique preceding the scare is used.

Other horror films need to take note. You don't need to saturate the whole fucking film with intermittent jump scares to keep people on edge.

I actually stopped watching this movie after this scene. I already had a hatred of Lynch and his 2deep4u bullshit but this just scared me to my core and I never got over it. There's also a scene in Lost Highway where he's looking at the video tape and it cuts to him holding his wife's bloody torso that got burned into my memory. Lynch is a fucking hack but the man scares the shit out of me. consider me Lynched.
>>86207212
The first paranormal activity is one of the scariest movies ever though and it didn't have any jump scares in the original cut. Never watched any of the sequels.

Anyways jumpscares are shit-tier. Here's one of the best examples of horror that doesn't rely on cheap sound effects.

I'm surprised how no one ever mentions the hotel bathroom and balcony murder scenes in The Conversation in these threads.
Maybe by themselves they are nothing special, but in the context of the whole film which is utterly quiet and slow with constant building tension until those two disturbing scenes makes the balcony jumpscare highly effective.
Heavily underappreciated
