Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Halloween, etc. As much as I'm "stuck in the eighties" otherwise, I have no love of eighties horror films. Primarily, I guess, because they've been done to death.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre I agree, truly disturbing.
The Others I saw this in the theater, and whoever handled the sound was a master. That was a big part of the fright factor. Then, when I found out the act that set things in motion, it really made this a haunting movie for me.
The Exorcist This movie creeps me out so much I've never been able to watch it.
Jaws It works for me as an action movie, but it's hard for me to sit in a theater four hours from the nearest body of salt water and fear a shark.
