Tough call, especially on what you consider scary. Generally, ghost movies don’t do it for me but Poltergeist is the rare exception. Then there are classics like the very first Halloween and the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Other notable ones I’d pick are Martyrs, the first Saw, Cabin Fever.
@richieleyland Its your call. Horror as you said has many sub-genre. Whatever you consider as GOAT.
I am making a list of horror movies to watch, so asking for suggestions. All sub-genre are good.
OH DEAR. THIS POST WAS SET TO SELF-DETONATE 💣 💥 🔥

@richieleyland Well I have seen it. I have watched so many that I dont even remember the stories 😂
@richieleyland I put the movie in the mindfu** category. Its not really horror.
I think a lot of the scariest ones are very specific to their times. Change unsettles people, and horror stories take advantage of which types of change are going on.

Night of the Living Dead seems tame now, but it was during the Vietnam War/Civil Rights Movement/early organ transplants. A movie where the government lies to you, the unquestioning press is embedded in a militarized police force, scientists tell people to drag their dead out into the street and burn them, the Black guy is the natural leader, the white family man is a backstabbing coward, and the cops kill the good guy in the end would have been very unsettling to people.
@AlphaCentauri Makes sense. Another of the Vietnam era related movie I like is "Jacob's Ladder" its not really horror but unsettling enough to affect you.
@indiauplko
"Martyrs" (NOT the remake!) or "Wer", probably.
