House (2008) is really the only true horror movie I've watched, and it's not even that scary. I think me and my mom are both finally realizing that "horror" doesn't mean "horrible gory slop with no redeeming value", as that was kind of a stereotype we had put on the genre that isn't really fair.

Favorites:
1. The Shining (1980)
2. An American Werewolf In London
3. Suspiria 
4. Phantasm
5. Poltergeist

Honorable mentions: Almost any of Lucio Fulci's horror movies. Very gory, yet also very heavy on the atmosphere and eeriness. 

Scariest: IDK, maybe Suspiria. Especially near the end.

A Thief in the Night

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Thief_in_the_Night_(film)

This movie scared the heck out of me as a very young child.

And apparently not only me…

Phantasm might be my all-time favorite movie of any genre. Looks like the other guys are on the same vibe.

Some others:
Night of the Creeps
Night of the Comet
Deep Red
Silver Bullet
Creepshow
Sleepaway Camp
Suspiria
Phantasm II is cool too, but different than original, more like 80's machismo

Scariest movie I've ever seen is Black Christmas.  2nd Friday is very scary as well.  Night of the Living Dead spooked me out as a teen.

Death Valley has the scariest ending I've ever seen and has Peter Billingsly as the protagonist.  You know, the Christmas Story kid, Ralphie.

Forgot to mention Black Christmas.. Truly a creepy movie. When a Stranger Calls is great too.

Didn't expect Phantasm to get so much love, that's awesome. Seeing it tomorrow on the big screen at an indie movie theater here.

Some favorites over the years (including sci-fi horror):

The Thing  (John Carpenter version)
Event Horizon
Creepers  (a.k.a. Phenomena)
Carrie   (Brian DePalma version)
Jaws     (original)
Alien
The Dead Zone
Get Out
Tombs Of The Blind Dead
The Cell
The Fly   (original)
The Host
Slither 
The Blob   (1988)
Hellraiser 
Cloverfield
Silence Of The Lambs
They Live
The Hidden

As far as scariest, not sure...I've seen some really disturbing ones that I would never recommend watching.  But certain scenes in certain movies can evoke feelings that can be very scary and off-putting, especially in movies like Jaws, Storm Of The Century, It!, Event Horizon, The Omen, The Hills Have Eyes, Silver Bullet, etc.

That was one of those movies I remembered bits and pieces of for years and then finally decided to find out what it really was, and was pretty nostalgic to watch again.

If we mean the most scared I've ever been while watching a movie, that would be when I was 11 and watched the Goonies for the first time, and they first meet Sloth... though ofc I wasn't scared of him by the end of the movie. Lord of the Rings has a case for being scarier than either of the "horror" movies I've seen. I really need to find some scarier movies bc I do really like them.

Forgot about Jurassic Park. Still not full horror but probably the scariest movie I've seen. Also, it's very good. So that's my answer for right now.

The Thing is probably my favorite.

Return of the Living Dead (1984) is very, very scary. Something they did with the zombies and atmosphere nailed
It.

The first movie to send me sleeping on the floor of my parent's room?

Kingdom of the Spiders! 😄 (Starring William Shatner)

There were two lower budget movies that really creeped me out as a kid.. Picture Mommy Dead "The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out.." rhyme in the movie stuck with me, and The Watcher in the Woods. Just remembered these two, anyone else know 'em?

AWIL was so good. Will check out Howling and DSSB too, thanks!

Wolf (1994) with Jack Nicholson and Michelle Pfeiffer I thought was outstanding.

I do love me some good horror flicks!  Some favorites of mine are (in no order):

The Thing
28 Days Later
Suspiria
Opera
Phenomena
Ravenous
Videodrome (not sure if that counts?)

Horror-comedy is probably my favorite though.  I always really enjoyed:

Dead-Alive (aka Braindead; Peter Jackson's best work; too bad he sold out with LOTR  Twisted Evil)
Housebound
Scream 1-4
The Cabin In The Woods
Tucker And Dale Versus Evil

I also like Death Valley! 

It appears that we have similar taste.

I can’t believe I forgot Halloween III “Season of the Witch”. 

Although it didn’t feature Michael Myers, it had a very dark and scary feeling to it. Definitely gave me the creeps!

I would add the Troll movies to my fun and less scary collection. 

Both are very goofy, but kinda creepy too!

Growing up watching HBO in the 80’s and early 90’s, I can’t leave out the gory and freaky HP Lovecraft based movies: Re-Animator and From Beyond. 

Speaking of HBO… I loved the Tales from the Crypt series.
