At risk of getting it wrong and looking like an idiot for leaving off something fabulous, I am just posting this here and now, and will add to it! Here is my list of favorite horror films...
Classics
Rosemary’s Baby
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
House of the Devil (new film, instant classic)
The Shining
The Exorcist
Jacob’s Ladder
Halloween
The Thing
Friday the 13th Part 2
Psycho
Weird, eerie, not-totally resolved thinkers
Resolution
Pontypool (check out our friend Max Gardner's review)
Lake Mungo
Lovely Molly
Hour of the Wolf (Bergman)
Mulholland Drive
Home Invasion
Ils (“Them” French)
Cache (not exactly horror, but suspense and wonderful)
Found footage jumpers
Paranormal Activity 3
Quarantine (I know, kill me, I like the american re-make better for once, although Rec is almost as good)
Seriously fucked up, watch once then never again
The Seventh Continent
Audition (Japanese)
A little corny, and Fun
Event Horizon
28 Days Later
30 Days of NIght
I don't like "Torture Porn" so none on my list.
