Depends on what you class as horror, personally I class horror as almost any Romantic comedy......

How about,

Evil Dead

Lord of Illusions

Oh and as mentioned above - Living Dead Movies

And as mentioned below:

Tales from the Crypt - Demon Knight

Old and tame in a way, but I like Tales from the crypt.

Loved this film as a child and so do my children.

Roaring open log fire, lights off - cracked it.

I like watching my kids hide behind the cushions

I can recommend 'REC' in that case. There's also an American remake of this Spanish film, but I don't know if that's any good.

The Japanese version of RING - as long as you dont know what happens in the end, you will be sh!tting yourself.

 

[HughJarse]

the grudge 3
blackwater
28 days of night
"rec" is sorta good if not annoying

 

[Ted]

If you like blood and gore, Midnight meat train has plenty.

And I must say Vinnie Jones actually fits the part well.

 

[Benzowner]

My favourite, not seen for ages, Hellraiser

 

[Satch]

If you can get hold of them either of the Ring films or Pulse (also called Kairo) and not the dreadful US remakes either but the original Japanese versions.

Seriously creepy stuff.

John Carpenters ' The Thing ' ...

Still scares the life out of me nowadays ...

 

[imadoofus]

I watched some dross called "Wrong Turn" the other night.

My God, it really was horrible!!

 

[Frank O' Phile]

Thought I'd nominate 'Hostel'.


I've recently acquired 'nightwatch', the original not the Ewan Macgregor remake, so looking forward to that this weekend.
