The original Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Nightmare on Elm St, scared the bejeezus out of me.

I almost didn't include Ridley Scott's Alien on my list because of the sci-fi element, but I can't help but consider it horror. There's just so much taut suspense and creature goo. It's scarier, in my opinion, than most "pure" horror films.
