I am fine with there being some violence or whatnot in a story as long as it isn't THE story itself. If it's in context and helps tell the story (much like a few of my other squeamish-like sex scenes and stuff) rather than being thrown in there just because, then I appreciate writing like that.
I like stories that are exciting and thrilling without being "full blown horror" such as demon possession, gory monsters, people being able to start fires with their eyes glowing colors, vehicles that are possessed and have minds of their own.... etc.
