Thanks for your list, atsonicpark; that's the ghoulish spirit.
my 13 favorite horror/monster/suspense thriller movies:
1. Psycho (1960) by Alfred Hitchcock (my #3 all-time)
2. Targets (1968) by Peter Bogdanovich
3. Alien (1979) by Ridley Scott
4. The Shining (1980) by Stanley Kubrick
5. Rosemary's Baby (1968) by Roman Polanski
6. Jaws (1975) by Steven Spielberg
7. The Thing (1982) by John Carpenter
8. Spoorloos [The Vanishing] (1988) by George Sluizer
9. Videodrome (1983) by David Cronenberg
10. Blade Runner (1982) by Ridley Scott
11. Halloween (1978) by John Carpenter
12. Eraserhead (1977) by David Lynch
13. Sin City (2005) by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez
Blue Velvet (1986) by David Lynch is more of a suspense/mystery to me, thus it's not topping this list.
Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986) by John McNaughton just might be the scariest for its grisly sense of realism, although it's not a typical horror movie.
There's no The Exorcist (1973) by William Friedkin on my list; it's okay, it's just that it didn't make the top thirteen.
