I totally understand where you're coming from, but when I watch specifically horror movies I'm sort of the opposite... I guess for some reason I just get into the sense of a hate filled, brutal reality populated by bastards or idiots. Maybe that's my defense against having to empathise and 'feel' the horror all the more, and certainly with brilliant and disturbing films like maybe 'Snowtown' the sense of it taking place in an all too human reality is almost unbearable. But mostly I watch this kind of film for the textures, the atmosphere and the weirdness.
