honestly, gore in general for some reason either a) difficult to portray in any visual medium, or b) so far out there that you can't help but be disgusted, however these films aren't mainstream movies so you do have to search for them. some people for some reason suck at dealing with blood in any way, and let's face it, half of hollywood blood looks so fake or makes so little sense that it ain't worth writing about (on the other hand, medical shows have it down pretty hard, so maybe the former needs to take lessons from the latter).
i'm also pretty sure half the reason why all our old horror movies went away is because we just... didn't have anything to be scared with them. they were more funny than scary, which is why everything's a damn thriller now if it's a movie and it's damn near impossible to make a horror flick that isn't focused more on that. those just work for me that well personally. i think the only horror movies i like are stephen king movies, so... yeah. anime at least has been more interesting to me there as there's some creepiness and violence i can find that won't be done live-action as anything that could do it ends up going way too far and focuses on the violence instead of the everything else.
i just find it so weird that the best things to scare you end up being done in text because visual representation is incredibly difficult. comics and manga tout that middle ground due to yeah, it being easier to draw something and allow the reader to fill in the blanks with what you've given them. still images are perfect as the in between.
as for lain forever 100+.... really? >___>;
got that one years ago for something that *i* consider reasonable.... and that's usually in the realm of 'everyone else considers it cheap.'
