Are These Movies Really So Scary That People Can’t Finish Watching Them?
Netflix has come out with a list of movies that are supposedly so scary, people can’t finish watching them. How did they figure that out? Well, their methodology isn’t remotely scientific.
Basically, these are movies that a lot of people have turned off after watching them least 70% of the way through. Netflix figures that people would only stay with the movies that long if they liked them. So turning them off MUST be a sign that they got scared.
I’d be more likely to believe that some of these were turned off because they were just too gross . . . like “The Human Centipede 2”. . . which really isn’t remotely scary.
Same for “Piranha” . . . which is practically a comedy, but does have a healthy serving of gore.
Legit or not, here’s the list:
1. “Cabin Fever”, 2016
2. “Carnage Park”, 2016
3. “Mexico Barbaro”, 2014
4. “Piranha”, 2010
5. “Raw”, 2016
6. “Teeth”, 2007
7. “The Conjuring”, 2013
8. “The Human Centipede 2: Full Sequence”, 2011
9. “The Void”, 2016
10. “Jeruzalem”, 2015
