I LOVE horror movies! The Exorcism to this day still scares me. I love the classics. I prefer Freddy over Jason. I saw Poltergeist 3 (?) the other day... The one where carol Ann lives with her aunt and uncle in an apartment building and the ghosts are in the mirrors. Still creepy...
High Tension is one of my newer favorites. It's in French but it's twisted and I love it. Hostel and Hostel 2 were pretty good... The Hills Have Eyes... I know I have LOTS more but my mind is blanking due to lack of sleep.
I still like Child's Play, the Poltergeists, and other similar movies. I'm not into slasher gory films so never bothered with Saw and the like. I also love The Ring, The Grudge, insidious, the conjuring, Mama, Drag Me To Hell, paranormal activities...not sure if they are horror or scary in category but they spook me every time!
The only horror movie I truly enjoy is The Decent. Both bloody and psychological. I am claustrophobic and the majority of it takes place in caves deep underground. I saw it in the theater and we drove home with all the car windows down so I didn't feel trapped.
I can do suspense, but I can't do gore. I walked out of The House of Wax because I thought I was going to be sick. The Hills Have Eyes scares me because the setting looks too close to where I actually live. I like The Ring a lot. That's about as scary as I can get.

Edit: forgot the slash 8-X
I know Hitchcock is suspense not horror but I have to say, The Birds and Psycho, too.
