Panic attacks: Panic attacks and sensitivity to horror movies can be a sign of genetic predisposition. Try relaxation techniques or may be as needed Propranolol if no contraindication.

Come on now. : Scary movies scare me. I don't like being scared. So, i don't watch scary movies. If you get panic attacks when watching scary movies - rather than trying to change your body's physiology - stop watching horror movies.
