Thanks for the thoughtful response. I think the key to your process is the "observe and analyze" bit. Seems a worthwhile exercise regardless of what you're minds ingesting.

I wasn't very fair about what I find appealing about being scared. It seems strange to subject yourself to feelings of unease, dread, fear, etc. When watching a scary movie, I know I'm safe, so I can afford myself the thrill of watching something that is going to try to evoke certain responses from me. There's an excitement in anticipating that something extraordinary is going to go down at any moment, and it probably won't be good for the folks on the screen. Hope this helps.
