Is em Beau Is Afraid /em Really a Comedy, or Is It As Scary As em Hereditary /em and em Midsommar /em ?
For die-hards, no horror movie can be too scary. But for you, a wimp, the wrong one can leave you miserable. Never fear, scaredies, because Slate's Scaredy Scale is here to help. We've put together a highly scientific and mostly spoiler-free system for rating new horror movies, comparing them with classics along a 10-point scale. And because not everyone is scared by the same things--some viewers can't stand jump scares, while others are haunted by more psychological terrors or can't stomach arterial spurts--it breaks down each movie's scares across three criteria: suspense, spookiness, and gore.
