Any movie that cuts out its jump scares is a lesser movie. Smile is much more intense and unsafe and atmospheric because the jump scares could come at any time. Each time there is a jumpscare, the atmosphere redoubles in terror and gives me physical fright and a yell. It becomes a more sophisticated psychological horror, and removing the jump scares is what would cheapen it, and make it shit.

Steak fucking sucks. It has no flavor, it’s just the flavor of meat. McDonald’s hamburgers are legitimately better, as are all hamburgers, as are all dishes with more ingredients.
I want to feel the maximum at every second. Horror movies should have loads of atmosphere, and jump scares, and everything good in the world that’s imaginable. None of it is mutually exclusive.
