Forgot those, although Alien and the Evil Dead aren't really horror to me.

Stir of Echoes is probably my favourite horror movie of all time though, I can't believe I forgot it.

WOW! This is a thread for me! Okay...lemme get my rest and think of all of them!!!

One of my classic faves though...the ORIGINAL Psycho! I LOVE Alfred Hitchcock!

Also...IT!! I saw this movie when I was like...I dunno 8! I remember I taped it off TV and it was REALLY late at night, and there were all these phone sex commercials! So my mom had to edit the tape for me! Haha Funny...I still like clowns too hehe

Evil Dead was supposed to be a serious horror movie and well, we all know where that lead to...

Alien not horror???
I know it's Sci-Fi but come on! That was (and still is) a great horror flick!

Yea, I can't believe I almost forgot about it too.
I'm going to have to rent (or better yet, buy) that one over the holidaze...

Event Horizon is the only movie that has really scared the shit out of me.

Jason scared the shit outta me when I was a kid.

Oh God Lisa... that movie scared the pants off me when i was 7 or 8. I stayed up watching it with my sisters and some of there friends. I couldn't sleep at all for a few days after that. I still watch it about once a year to refresh my memory.

Not so scarey compared to most movies these days.
