Hi,
A few I would like to throw into the list: -
A Tale of Two Sisters (Korean film which for me is also a piece of art)
Kairo (Japanese film that is complex and moves between mystery and horror)
Ju-on (Japanese version of The Grude - the US remake massively simplified the plot, made it all chronologically correct and removed the scariest sequence in the film)
Event Horizon (Early 90s horror with a big cast of excellent actors)
The Ring (In this case I preferred the US version which built upon the original Japanese version)
Dead and Buried (80s horror which is a bit different from most. Some old fashioned gruesome action)
The Exorcist (It's still a great movie and the newer special editions put back some of the scenes cut from the original release) I've also been to D.C and seen the house and steps.
The Others (A lot of it is about the plot but it's a great film)
Oculus (More about the plot that just scares)
Halloween (The original and best of the series)
Those are a few I hadn't seen suggested yet. There are a number that would be on my list of favourites that have already been mentioned.
I'm sure I've forgotten a few lesser known favourites but I'm so busy these days I can't remember watching a whole horror film in one go for about two years now.

Great film but seriously caused problems with the image of sharks that they're still suffering from today.
Rec is a good one. I think it was remade as Quarantine?
I also recently watched V/H/S 2 (Haven't got around to V/H/S).
Horror's aren't my favourite genre though I do enjoy a good zombie film occasionally if anyone has any recommendations.

I'm more of the type of person who watches super bad horrors for a giggle but I do have some that are not bad at all. The Hush (Netflix Own Film) is very good about a girl on her own who is blind or deaf (I can't remember which one though). Dale & Tucker Vs Evil is a good one if you want a fresh take on horror in a different view, also very funny to watch. I have yet to watch some horrors such as Mr.Brooks and Housebound which seem quite good but I do love my first thriller that one of my parents showed to me which was Sixth Sense.
I watched that a couple of weeks ago.
It was a bit slow and boring to be honest and I found parts of it were a bit over-stretched to fit the plot.

Australians have a way of doing very raw horrors.

Event Horizon made me feel physically sick, I think it was the green colours used, if you have seen it you will know what I mean !!
Er .. what else.. oh yes The American Werewolf In London which I have never seen and have no intention on seeing thank you very much as the video case cover use to scare the living hell out me when I was 6 years old visiting my local video hire store (Pick A Flick). I would be there minding my own business getting Battle Of The Planets videos which I loved to death then BANG out of nowhere that werewolf cover got me.
The Exorcist was bad but didn't mess me up to much.
I don't like gore so I have never seen The Thing but everyone seems to rave about it .
The Fly was scary especially when that weird thing crawled out of the teleport cubicle.
The Grudge was not bad.
Never saw any of the ring movies.
The Blair Witch Project I thought was good and original too.
