How it scares

Each kind of scare is rated out of 10. Hover over a score, or use the info button, to see what it means.

Gore
9.0 out of 10,Extreme
Blood, injuries and body horror shown on screen. Violence that happens off-screen barely counts.
Gore 9.0 is extreme (9-10 on the scale):
- Long, explicit and unflinching gore that is the centrepiece
- Nothing is held back from start to finish
1. 1-2Mild
2. 3-4Moderate
3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Creepy
8.0 out of 10,Intense
Unsettling images, atmosphere and things that feel wrong. Not sudden shocks (Jumpscares) or waiting for something to happen (Suspense).
Creepy 8.0 is intense (7-8 on the scale):
- Deeply unnatural sights, sounds and movement
- Unsettling for most of the film, with little relief
1. 1-2Mild
2. 3-4Moderate
3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Jumpscares
8.0 out of 10,Intense
Sudden shocks designed to make you jump, usually a fast movement or a loud noise. Not slow-building dread (Suspense).
Jumpscares 8.0 is intense (7-8 on the scale):
- Frequent, well-timed jumpscares that are hard to predict
- Quiet scenes rarely feel safe
1. 1-2Mild
2. 3-4Moderate
3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Suspense
9.0 out of 10,Extreme
Tension and dread while you wait for something to happen. Not the scare itself when it arrives (Jumpscares or Gore).
Suspense 9.0 is extreme (9-10 on the scale):
- Relentless tension that becomes genuinely stressful to watch
- Almost no relief from start to finish
1. 1-2Mild
2. 3-4Moderate
3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme
Psychological
7.0 out of 10,Intense
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 7.0 is intense (7-8 on the scale):
- Disturbing ideas about the mind, identity or reality
- Present throughout, and leaves you uneasy long after
1. 1-2Mild
2. 3-4Moderate
3. 5-6Strong
4. 7-8Intense
5. 9-10Extreme

How the overall score of 8.7 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.
