Aye. I've declined the cut request accordingly.

This seems to be an incorrectly-named trope. Some of the movies listed, including Session 9, are actually horror movies, they're just non-supernatural horror or ambiguously supernatural horror. Perhaps "Faux Spook Show" or "Pseudo Supernatural" would be a better name?

I agree whole-heartedly. There's a big difference between not having supernatural elements and not having horror.
I agree with you guys. I feel like this trope is 1000% codified by Scooby Doo... I think I would have called this "Scooby Doo Horror," i.e. horror movies that cleverly (or faux-cleverly) subvert their supernatural premises.
In further support, the horror page itself gives top-billing to non-supernatural examples of horror, like Alfred Hitchcock.

Shouldn't there be a spoiler warning above this trope? Considering how many works use the "not supernatural" thing as a Twist Ending, spoilering this would probably be wise.
While I actually agree on the pointlessness of this page, it's a job for TRS, not the cutlist.
