these are some jumpscares I saw recently
>House of the Haunted Hill
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z2H9ZfITBg
had plenty of good jumpies, they're silly in their build-up but great in execution
>Sisters
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNzFqRyfTng
not the best as you know something gonna happen, too much setup
>Final Destination
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jt2f-Zpe80
a classic jump scare situation, a funny scare thanks to the drop deap dialogue and the closed street
>Twin Peaks FWWM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAGh_Fl4cMw
I think I prefer the one in the show >>215602203
>Death Ship
https://youtu.be/o-kHN-eTr0o?si=PwiuvWQJzvBjn-2v&t=1717
Good execution of a scare, but strange flick, I love the concept of a ship or an industry environment rebelling against humans, killing them with its own wires and machinery. But the twist here is just too much hollywood.
>>
>>215603714
>My Bloody Valentine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEPlR_MVzcg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNhZmdj_UcM
I don't know if you can call all of these jump scares, the 3d effect sure made them less jumpy and scary
>The Dentist 2
https://youtu.be/fUfFK4GdUbY?si=gozLpdNdgYPAH7lQ&t=127
just growse
>High Tension
There's a few jumpscares but mostly wanted to mention how tense it is, or at least how tense the main character is, always putting herself in the most awkward and scary situations.
>Anguish
maybe not much of jump scare but there's actual footage from an eye operation which made me jump
>Devil's Pass
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7Y2cLFq47g
felt like this movie was a cheap mix of Inland Empire and Blair Witch Project and the jump scares were never really jumpy nor scary
>Mute Witness
NSFW-warning?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OHdwlYrPdc
intense, smart use of sound to let the mutey "speak"
>Maniac
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAogksvk5F8
idk of Maniac was the first one to do it, but it's a bit dated, the bathroom door hiding has been done to death by now, so one could tell how it would go, still good enough, clearly inspiring since high tension totally copied the scene frame by frame

In general the key to a good jump-scare seems to be you actually have to devote an entire scene to building tension for ONE scare, you can't just have the music go quiet for a few seconds beforehand

the makeup is very darth maul coded in this scene but it doesn't come across that way any other time, really, it's more 'generic demon' in the other scenes he's visible

startlingly close to how falling asleep at the wheel can feel

I'm not against jump scares - they're fine here and there - but I don't think any are all that memorable. They're cheap scares, and can be fun if used sparingly. I think they're most effective when you're a kid. The jump scare which will always be the most memorable to me is the opening of Ghostbusters with the librarian. It was the first movie I ever watched.
>>215601648
>this made boomers piss and shid themselves
People talk about this jump scare as if it's some next level shit, but it's just a typical slasher jump scare in an otherwise dull, bloated film, filled with talking.

I truly believe this is one of the best scenes in any movie. The movie itself is pretty average for a 90s movie but that 3 minute scene elevates it to god tier. I saw exorcist 3 when it came out and always remembered this scene. So good
>>
>>215608586
i think 3 is the best exorcist movie out of them all
>>
The librarian ghost at the beginning of Ghostbusters scared me. Granted it was the first movie I saw in the theater back in the early 80s but it scared me. Its not scary now but I'll never forget it and it might be the scariest thing I've ever seen in a movie. Perfect storm of being a kid and not really knowing movies could scare you
>>
>>215608633
I do too. I always thought the first two were average and never got the hype. The third isn't a masterpiece or anything but it's decent enough and memorable

>It Comes At Night
No basedcuck likes this movie. It’s not even a horror film. The trailer was a bunch of nightmare scenes that tricked you. As was the title. Nothing comes at night. Nothing happens except apocalypse movie where white guy is suspicious and whacks black guy the end.

That's just true though. They require no effort and only work because of basic human instinct. Same with gore and sex. It takes work to genuinely scare, disgust, or arose someone without just appealing to their base instincts. Anyone that can't is just a hack.
>>
>>215609053
Nice basedgument. Jumpscares are an important part of any horror, always have been. Building up tension without a real scare is like fucking without cumming

Not what I said, though thank you I agree my argument was based.
You can have your scares but you need to earn them and you can't just rely on the suprise factor. Most of the horror movies you simp for likely just have shit pop on the screen randomly and call it scary. You are the söyjak, I am the Chad.
>>
>>215608958
that stuff is weak, but the idea of your own bloated corpse slowly floating to confront you at night is extremely scary. The stuff where they discover the neighbour sneaking in the house is spooky too.
>>
>>215608958
>>215609416
You keep saying this, but that's only because you've never seen REAL generational trauma. Just because a bunch of Tumblr Reddit lesbians usurped the term and used it to apply to being forced to go to church on Sunday, doesn't make the concept any less suited for a horror movie. Some people have parents who were rapists, murderers, drug addicts, psychopaths, anything you can think of. The leaves it's mark on people and a horror movie that properly manifests it would be cool. Stop your bitching is what I'm getting at.

Why do you like horror? Just go watch screamer videos from back in the day. That should be everything you want in a horror movie without all the gay shit, right? Oh no you're just retarded.

This can be embiggened by making the audience relax a bit by having a false scare, such as a phone ringing, then hit them with the actual scare shortly afterwards. That's how Hitchcock did it.
