Horror Movies With All of the Scares and None of the Gore

The Grudge

After a man brutally murders his family in a fit of jealous rage, a deadly curse is passed on from victim to victim. Despite its violent and terrifying nature, The Grudge features little actual gore, aside from a character with a missing jaw. Most of the movie's ghostly murders happen off-screen.

Gerald's Game

For the most part, Gerald's Game is all about psychological warfare. A woman's husband dies during some steamy foreplay, leaving her handcuffed to the bed in their remote vacation home with no hope of escape. Toward the end of the film, there is a scene that involves some rather nauseating gore, but Gerald's Game is good enough that we suggest you watch and look away.
