Horror movies are the worst about this! It feels like the entire genre hires the same asshole to make the dialogue quiet, just so you'll listen closely before they blare a LOUD SOUND and some spooky monster jumps out from behind a corner.

I love horror, but I fucking hate horror sometimes. I shouldn't need subtitles just to avoid getting honeydicked by the audio...
