Sacred Haven of Debauchery

drama without the element of "gore" has a much greater impact.

It depends on the person. When I was ten, I remember watching some horror movie on TV at night. It was scary all the time, but I kept watching out of curiosity. And when it ended, I lay there and was afraid to even move.
Now, something like that has absolutely no effect on me, but, for example, in movies and anime, my eyes often water and sometimes even wet drops run down my cheeks in some tragic, happy, or simply inspiring moments.
