Since Blair Witch (probably the most profitable movie ever made) there has been an overwhelming movement of "do nothing" horror films. Look at all the "Paranormal's" for instance. Or the "VHS" films. No name actors, limited sets and art directions, and a budget Vinnie the loan shark would approve.
My most recent favorite "scary movie" is 'Sinister' which is a first cousin to the 'Insidious' franchise. I remember how exhausting the original 'Chainsaw' was and regret that almost no movie has been able to reproduce that level of adrenaline high. I haven't seen the latest Roth film in the Amazon so I'm not sure what its adrenaline factor is--looks like it could be pretty high.
