It can bring you into a scene and make you feel unease.I hold the opinion CGI should only be used if practical effects are too expensive or could never do the job, and yes gore can be visceral but so can playing on peoples primal fear of things like the dark or the unknown, and frankly, I think those are both more effective and appeal to a wider audience.
Also, it tends to be non-CGI, old school special effects stuff. I appreciate old school special effects, especially in creature features. I'm not a purist or anything. CGI has its place. But I also appreciate it when a puppet is so well-crafted that it freaks me out.
