In celebration of Halloween, I'm watching a horror film everyday, so what are your favourite horror films, and are there any new ones you've been particularly impressed with?

A couple of mine would be:
House of 1000 Corpses
The Devil's Rejects
Ginger Snaps
Insidious
Trick 'R Treat
Scream
Suspira
Psycho

    The Ring was probably the most worked up I've ever been watching a horror film, aside from the very first one I forced myself to watch (When a stranger calls). From when it came out, it utterly terrified me, to the point that I promised myself I'd never watch it. Finally did a couple of months ago and I was jumping six foot out of my chair every time a loud noise happened! Turns out it wasn't even that scary (:

    Thanks for all the replies guys, got a couple more to add to October's list now

    Sinister was by far the most disturbing story wise.

    Evil Dead 2, Hellraiser, Braindead, Reanimator, Dead Snow to be honest i'll watch most horror films. I have a passion for 80s B movie zombie films and love old Hammer :)

    I can't list them all, because that would take all day and I'd still forget some. But...Return of the Living Dead, Hello Mary Lou Prom Night 2, Phantoms, Bordello of Blood, 28 Days Later, IT, Candyman, Psycho, The Thing, Evil Dead, Army of Darkness, Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, In The Mouth of Madness, and Tales from the crypt: Demon Knight. Seriously, I could go on, but I won't.

    Not a big fan of the horror genre to be honest and dislike the slasher type movies, a couple of recent movies like The Conjuring and Sinister were pretty decent but I really loved the old hammer movies back when I was a young lad, those Peter Cushing, Vincent Price and Christopher Lee classics really did have me hiding behind the cushions when I was a boy. Maybe I'm just feeling nostalgic :)

    I love horror movies. I also do the horror movie every day in October (or at least I try. usually I can't make it every day.)
    As far as favorites go, this list would probably change if i thought about it more, or was just in a different mood. But right now I'd say the following (in no particular order):

    Audition
    Ringu
    Pulse (Japanese version)
    A Tale of Two Sisters
    The Shining
    Halloween
    Sleepaway Camp
    Texas Chainsaw Massacre
