I love horror movies, though I honestly prefer movies that are more about true fear and dread rather than gore. I'm not really into slasher flicks. Some of my favorites:

The Haunting (the original black-and-white, not the horrid remake)

Psycho

Halloween

The Shining

ALIEN

The Exorcist (one of the few movies that can still scare me as an adult)

The Silence of the Lambs

The Howling

An American Werewolf in London (despite the rushed unfulfilling ending, it's still fun)

Carrie

The Thing (one of the few movies where both the original and the remake are pretty darn good)

Night of the Living Dead (the original)

Creepshow (campy as all get-out, but still great fun)

The Birds

Fright Night (a campy, fun movie that still manages to be a decent vampire flick)

Ginger Snaps (great movie up until the last 15 minutes, where the movie falls apart)

JAWS (Is this horror? I've always seen it as more of an adventure movie, but it always makes horror lists.)

I've always liked The Grudge and the Excorcist (the original one). I also like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Chucky.

Count me in all these movies Mark...

One horror flick i liked was ''Its Alive'' about the women who had a baby and it killed the entire delivery room doctors and nurses and killed anybody in the movie but the mother or its normal siblings.

The original "Alien" best horror flick. Second choice "The Birds". (Remember the quick glance at the guy in the bedroom with his eyes plucked out).

I put together a montage of horror movies for Halloween last year, and I actually used that shot with the guy's eyes plucked out. Scariest part of that movie!
