What defines a survival horror?

[BlueFury]

My point of view: If game has any shooting in it, there is no horror at all. I think that it's funny to play shooting games and kill people in these games, but there's no horror. Some of people think that it's scary when the bogeyman runs towards to you, but what happens then...
...when it's shooting game, you probably shoot the monster. Is that scary? I think it's not.

Finally someone who gets it...

fear was bad, doom 3 was still pretty scary
because you have guns it can still scare you, but ignore my opinion, even doom 1&2 scare me
