I also don't like gruesome for gruesome sake movies.

I can completely do without all of that.

So the whole Saw Franchise (after the first) and all the copy cats I was not interested in. No interest in the Final Destination type movies.

I do love thrillers and suspense. So yeah the build up in Get Out is my ish. It's the reason why one of my all time favorite movies is Silence of the Lambs (but hated the gruesomeness and shock value of Hannibal).

I love the story how Brad Pitt ran out of money for the big zombie fight scene in World War Z so they settled in the ending in the movie which is just him moving quietly through a lab. That's the difference between suspense and horror.
