Although, I have to say the first time I ever cried during a film was in Project X (not the new one, the one from 80's) where chimps were being tested on, there was one scene with an orang-utan that was so sad

That's true. Horror films and seriously plotted dramas are vastly different. I cry at most films but I don't think I ever have at any horror film.
