Jacob's Ladder (the original) is one of those movies that that sticks with you for a while after watching it. I watch it every few years and it still gets under my skin.

Older stuff but well worth a watch:
The Exorcist
The Other
The Omen
Real old and kind of campy, but some of them started the horror genre:
Dracula with Bela Lugosi
The Wolfman with Lon Chaney Jr.
The Mummy with Boris Karlof
Frankenstein with Boris Karlof
And for a funny take on horror movies:
Dracula: Dead And Loving It with Leslie Neilson
Young Frankenstein with Gene Wilder

Some not mentioned:
- The Descent: Masterpiece that had no right to be. About a group of spelunkers that find dangerous creatures inside the cave they go exploring into.
- Oculus(and anything else from Mike Flannagan, including his 3 shows on Netflix): Mike Flanagan film about a cursed mirror. The sort of occult horror you don't really see made much in modern horror.
- Green Room: Maeby Fünke and a punk band book the wrong gig from Patrick Stewart, who turns out to be an actual Nazi. Hijinks ensue.
- Eden Lake: Michael Fassbender and his girlfriend go on a romantic getaway in a remote town and end up confronting the wrong gang of youths.
- Annihilation: Natalie Portman explores a mysterious alien bubble that appears and is changing all the life and fauna inside it. Wouldnt call it traditional horror, but it has some of the most haunting and memorable scenes in the last decade, including one with a bear.
- Blackcoat's daughter: Definitely splits audiences, two girls find themselves left behind at a boarding school with a mysterious demonic presence.
If you are willing to venture into foreign territory
- The Wailing: Absolutely hands down one of the top 5 horror movies from any country in the last 10 years. Movie somehow has it all: psychological-thriller, mystery, horror, zombies, black magic, demonic presence, and unexpected comedy and absurdity. Policeman investigates a series of mysterious killings and illnesses in a remote Korean village that eventually reaches his own daughter.
- Train to Busan: Just a really well done, somehow fresh feeling zombie movie.
- Let the Right One In: Bullied boy meets girl, girl turns out to be a vampire.
- Devil's Backbone: Guillermo del Toro gothic horror set in the Spanish Civil War.
- The Innocents: 2022 film. Group of children realize they each have special powers during the summer break at their apartment complex. Definitely not your Young X Men turn hero's tale.
- The Host: Monsters emerge from a river in Seoul along a crowded pavilion and kidnaps a fathers daughter. And so as any father would, he goes to kill it

Man Halloween, or really the start of September to end of October (which is all of fall and halloween to me) has supplanted pretty much any other month or holiday. I have some go-to's every year. I like to throw in some legit scary ones to go along with some more lighthearted romps. This is just off the top of my head as I'm sure there are more.
"Scary"
Halloween (1979)
Halloween II (1981)
Halloween (2018)
Conjuring 1 and 2
Annabelle Creation (seriously underrated)
The Ring
The Shining
A Nightmare on Elm Street (original)
Friday the 13th (original)
Good fun scary movies:
Scream 1-3 and the newest one
Ready or Not
Sleepy Hollow (Tim Burton one)
Hocus Pocus
Under Wraps
Halloweentown
I Know What you Did Last Summer (corny as hell but fun)
Casper
Trick R Treat
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark
Goosebumps
The Haunted Mansion
Beetlejuice
Poltergeist
Monster Squad
The Mummy (Brendan Fraser) Not really a halloween movie but it's always given me that vibe and it scared me as a kid + it's fun so I always add it.
Clue (just for a nice, dark stormy night and a good laugh whodunnit)
In addition to some other animated ones, there's also some old school Scooby Doo ones that are pretty good to watch if you have kids too:
Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School
Scooby Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf
Scooby Doo meets the Boo Brothers (nostalgic favorite)
Scooby Doo on Zombie Island (2001?)
The Nightmare before Christmas
Monster House
Frankenweenie
Coraline

The Evil Dead movies are my favorite.

It’s not even that scary but has the one of the single most haunting scenes in recent memory

Man, I rewatched that one a couple years ago and it does not hold up well at all. That movie terrified me as a little kid, and watching it again (in October of 2020) it was pretty silly, weird as frick (and not in a good or fun way), and just not very good at all IMO.

as a kid, Wolfen really got to me.

It was Silver Bullet for me. That movie destroyed me as a kid, and made me hate horror movies until I was an adult. It's funny how much I love them now compared to how much I loathed them as a kid. And most of that can be traced back to Silver Bullet, which isn't even that great of a movie.

The Wailing is maybe my favorite. May watch that tonight.
Some really good suggestions ITT

Prince of Darkness took me ten years to finished that from a teenager to an adult. Its just disturbingly shot.

Surprised this movie was that good. But I hate these movies where grown adults can't handle being terrorized by kids.
See "Them".
For strange, creepy..."Honeymoon" and "The Rental". People on vacation and something sinister is afoot in the woods.

How weird/twisted are you willing to watch?
Because I can give some recs but they're not 80s slasher movies.
