I don't really watch enough horror to make a good list.

But I'm gonna recommend you watch Pontypool anyway.
---

I mean, I have to mention Club Dread. It's a parody and you'll probably think it's either hilarious or trash. Maybe even both. It's by Broken Lizard, the guys who made Super Troopers.

4. They Live
5. The Mist

IT (2017)

I'm really bad about naming anything more than my "best-in-class" of any particular genre, whether it's with movies, games, books or really anything. These are all the ones that first came to mind though so that probably means something! "The Thing" is as good as it gets for horror IMO.

4. Misery
5. Mulholland Dr.
6. American Psycho
7. The Mist
8. The Shining

1. The Shining

Yeah, not a particularly big fan of the genre. But the Shining is both my favorite Kubrick film and my favorite horror film.

Thats tough....

1. Jaws
2. Predator
3. Halloween 78
4. The Wolf man 41
5. Fright Night 85
6. Frankenstein 31
7. NoES: 3 Dream Warriors
8. Return of the Living Dead
9. It 90
10. They Live

1. Shaun of the Dead
2. The Shining
3. Get Out
4. A Quiet Place
5. Frankenstein (1932)

That's about it for me, because I don't think Jaws or Tremors really count and I haven't seen much of anything else in terms of horror.

Not in order.
1. The Mist 2007
2. Dawn of the Dead remake
3. Shaun of the Dead
4. Cabin in the Woods
5. The Orphanage
6. Final Destination 2
7. 4bia 2

5. Frankenstein (1932)

Whoops, I meant 1931. I don't know why I thought Frankenstein was released in 1932.

Some great lists around

1. [REC]
2. Eden Lake (if you have watched the Black Mirror episode from the same director, you can guess why)
3. Martyrs
4. Repulsion
5. Psycho
6. Rosemary's Baby
7. The Shinining
8. The VVitch
9. Hereditary
10. The Mist

And throwing in some HM:

Kidnapped, Vernica (probably contains the line I found most horrifying in any movie ever), The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Cube, The Invitation, Suspiria

I think it's a good mix of graphically violent and slow burn tension
---

And others I wouldn"t name as horror but equally or more horrifying:

Dogtooth, The Skin I Live In, Black Swan, The Act of Killing, Henry: Portrait of a Killer, Custody
---

Mom and Dad is kinda dumb, but if anybody wants to see Nic Cage flipping out they should have a fun time with it

My list in any order, I haven't seen a ton of horror so this is all I've come up with:

~ Alien
~ Cabin in the Woods
~ Psycho
~ The Shining
~ The Silence of the Lambs
~ The Exorcist
~ Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet St.
~ Nosferatu (1922)
~ Young Frankenstein ((this may not count, unsure))
~ The Sixth Sense ((this also may not count))

Thought of some more:

Grabbers (more comedy than horror though)
The Banshee Chapter
The Burrowers
---

1. Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers
2. Hereditary
3. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
4. The People Under the Stairs
5. Puppet Master
6. The Blair Witch Project
7. Don't Go in the House
8. The Ring
9. Funny Games (2007)
10. X-Ray (Hospital Massacre)
