Things that scare me are the ones where you can see the disaster or whatever could actually happen in real life.

I do like a bit of blood and guts, watched No country for old men last night, that had plenty



He didn't die, he was kidnapped.

As much as I like Rick I thought the series improved after he left.
I didn't know that Nicol.... I thought he died on the bridge... its ages since I watched it :}

Re: Why do we like to be frightened?

I've never understood why anyone likes films like SAW, far too much blood and gore. Some folk have murderous minds who think up such a storyline for a film

He was kidnapped/rescued by some people who arrived in a helicopter, he was injured. His friends spent a long time looking for his body, assuming he was dead.

I think his exit was done like that so the door was left open for him to return. I don't know if him leaving was ever supposed to be permanent or if he just needed a temporary break.

This would pretty much cover my answer and what with this ‘WE’ bit? We don’t all enjoy being frightened. I’ve never been into horror films. A thriller perhaps but that’s more of an ‘excited suspense.’
