Insidious would be good for your situation.

Poltergeist or The Conjuring should do the trick

Alien

The Thing (pretty gory, but a great film - shouldn't shock kids of this generation)

Psycho (more of a thriller, but the classics never fail)

High quality films with lasting cultural value.

ETA: I concur with Poltergeist, too. Might even be too tame for today's generation to be considered a horror movie, although some scenes will get them there.

Ditto for Lost Boys.

IMDB has a "parents guide" for most movies showing the reason it is rated what it is rated.

I recently rewatched Scream with my daughter because she wanted to watch a horror movie.

Drag Me to Hell

Don't bother with Insidious. It's just Poltergeist all over again, but not near as good.

You could go the Van Helsing route, more entertaining,

Silence of the Lambs .. more gruesome

Stigmata is about religion so it's horror as well as is Constantine....
