Must admit horror movies don't do anything for me, not with fantastic monsters at least. Think reality is far more terrifying, even in film. I did enjoy horror as a kid and before the mhi, but of course I wasn't allowed to watch them. So, yeah;
It (1990), the movie sucked, but Tim Curry as the clown creeped me out.
Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street were good fun (still like these two, just not scared of them).
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003), but I think that was mostly because of the girls, hehe.
The Shining (1980), those 70's carpets creeped me out for some reason. Love the winter ambience and music, but doesnt scare me per se. The movie has great flow though and I watched it high once or twice. Totally loved the scene with Scatman Crothers talking the family through the provisions...

Realistic horror I liked;
Misery (1990) Very good movie, Kathy Bates is fantastic.
Vacancy (2007) Really cool idea, but can't tell or it'll ruin the movie. Use good speakers when watching this.
Eden Lake (2007) Awesome film.
The Descent (2005) was mentioned, erm, awesome, had me totally hooked when it was playing on claustrophobia, being stuck and almost crushed in that cave. Why did they ruin it with silly monsters?
The Witch was mentioned, are we talking the 2015 one with Anya Taylor Joy? Cool film, great ambience.
Henry - Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986), again awesome. Love real crime. Very creepy. Highly recommend that one, good call, BE.
Honourable mention to zombie films, they're really great fun, but so few of them are actually good imho. The best for me is Dawn of the Dead (2004), love it. And T., you didn't read that. x
PS: One might as well mention Alien (1979), it's listed as horror, and one of the greatest scifi films there is. Did I mention ambience and music before... <3
