Unfortunately, a lot of horror movies (especially these days) do not succeed in doing so, and only end up being either campy or trying too hard. IMO, the best horror movies are ones that aim to spook you via your imagination, not by showing you gore or making you jump with shock. At least, you know the director and/or writer are putting in some considerable effort when they rely on your imagination to do the scaring and not on those silly modern horror movie cliches.
They also keep making the same kinds of horror movies. If I see another one about demonic possession and exorcism I'll fucking puke.
What about the Conjuring 2?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
