Gore
3.0 out of 10,Moderate
Blood, injuries and body horror shown on screen. Violence that happens off-screen barely counts.

3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Creepy

4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Jumpscares
4.0 out of 10,Moderate
Sudden shocks designed to make you jump, usually a fast movement or a loud noise. Not slow-building dread (Suspense).

- A handful of jumpscares that land
- Spaced out, with long gaps between them
1. 1-2Mild

3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Suspense
4.0 out of 10,Moderate

- Broken up by calmer stretches

4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Psychological
5.0 out of 10,Strong
Horror that gets in your head: paranoia, madness, doubting what's real and ideas that stay with you. Not how a scene looks (Creepy) or feels in the moment (Suspense).
Psychological 5.0 is strong (5-6 on the scale):
- Paranoia, madness or a story that makes you question what's real
- A big part of the film, and it stays with you afterwards
1. 1-2Mild
2. 3-4Moderate
3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme

How the overall score of 4.3 is worked out

A film doesn't need to do every kind of horror to be scary, so the overall score only uses its three strongest categories. Any of those three scoring 3 or lower counts as zero and takes off another0.5.
