House is good.
Thanks for reminding me.
Room 1408 is good, too.

I was more of a B grade horror fan to be honest. I’ll have to check my memory banks, but a few standouts
Evil dead 1-3, each movie is unique, love em all.
Street Trash
Toxic Avenger
Basket Case
Attack of the killer tomatoes
Creep Show
The Hand
Texas Chainsaw massacre
The Howling
Peanut butter freaks
I’m not really into horror films at all, but the below had me on the edge of my seat with so much tension that I wanted to look away
The invisible man- probably the most tension filled film I have ever seen
Hostel- walked out of the cinema actually feeling dirty
Invasion of the body snatchers( the original)
The birds -creeped me out a bit
Saw
Hill have eyes( the new one)- that scene in the trailer with those two women throughly disturbed me
I know what you did last summer- saw it on tv when I was pretty young. First slasher film I had seen. Scared the hell out of me
The Thing
Dawn of the dead- remake. Probably the best zombie film I have seen

I’ll make a list at some point with the Exorcist at No.1 no doubt.
That scene when Father Merrin (Max von Sydow) arrives at the house covered in fog to perform the exorcism, the impending doom in the air is palpable.
Wonderful cinematography !

I’ll nominate Woman in Black. The movie was good. The telemovie I believe was better. Also the tv series Hannibal and The Haunting of Hill House outdid many movies imo.

That film was disturbing. I didn’t mind it, but geez the gore was full on.
Human centipede anyone?
Candyman is decent.
I’m glad someone mentioned Final Destination.
I’m half watching The Conjuring now, and it’s…eh.
Same with the Exorcist, I just have a high zif factor on things that are supposed to have happened or are possible.
I find things that are completely impossible much scarier.
Yep, it went from sort of creepy to downright disgusting very very quickly
It was on Fox a few weeks ago. Taped it as I thought would like to watch it again, to see if I get the same impression.
But have realised am too scared to watch it again. 
Will have to think on some others but the Paranormal Activity movies were fairly scary.
Bloodsucking Freaks.
Banned in Queensland!
After watching I thought, y’know…I may have been harsh on Queenslanders…

Unfriended is under-rated.
Very well done.
The tension keeps building throughout.
Had me genuinely jumping at shadows for nights after.
I am a big wuss though

Not sure toxic avenger fits this category, more super hero meets splatter but that is a classic too.
Another great flick i can’t remember the name of where little bugs crawled into people’s brains and controlled them was great too
