The Orphanage is the only one of these films I've seen (I've not seen too much of this new-fangled stuff)
It's pretty good, although the credit sequence at the beginning is very cheesy. I wouldn't say it's too scary (although kudos to the fact that this film delivers it's share of atmosphere over cheap gore and effects)
I think of it more as a macabre horror-esque drama then a straight-up horror film. It's sort of similar to The Others in tone, which is another great modern horror film.
