i have some advice for you: don't go for shock value (like Saw 3, or a Silent Hill kind of thing, you know, chopped off limbs etc; something jumping out at you is fine) but try to create a scary atmosphere, instead of relying on shock value, it gets old. for example: F.E.A.R. was not scary at all to me, because it was all shock value, and the atmosphere wasn't all that creepy. ...and you were armed to the teeth, but that's beside the point.
