I just saw "Buried". About a guy being buried alive in a coffin by Iraqi terrorists. The whole movie takes place inside the box .
Just one guy talking on the phone.
The premise had lots of potential but film fell short due to some plot holes and annoying camera angles... But I like those types of movies.

Not a horror movie buff at all. I don't see why I would waste money and time to be **** scared lol. The movie I think I was terrified by the most was Poltergeist but that was ages ago.
I guess Sresh raiding AYCE buffets would be scarier and I haven't dared yet to watch it in action.

Not into them because they are all the same and so unrealistic. They don't scare me, but the first one I remember getting close was the Ring.
That and Rebel Without A Cause. That thing is terrifying...

Looks like a mix of the 80s creep show and tales from dark side

Wouldn't silence of the lambs and Seven fit more of the thriller genre though? Horror I suppose veers towards the supernatural?There is too much graphical horror in the horror movies these days and too little storytelling. I am a fan of the latter that is why Hitchcok is one of my favourites.
From those not rated in the Horror genre "Seven" is pretty good at focusing on the build up towards the scenes of horror and the way it makes you think about what the spectator hasn't seen. "The silence of the lambs" is another one.
David Lynch with Eraserhead and MD is fascinating in the same way by infusing the horror in the storytelling and of course, Twin Peaks (the series, not the movie) have the dreamlike sense of threat.
Hitchcock is a master of suspense, no question about that and I agree, horror or any suspense should stand on the script rather than effects.

I love two classics.
Psycho (1960)
so much spooky
Rosemary's Baby (1968)
the most disturbing ever

That one was disturbing. "What have you done with its eyes?".
IIRC, that film never actually showed the baby's eyes. A masterpiece.
Nothing scares me today. Other than Trump's tweets and out of control spending.

Never heard of The Thing... Which version?
The Thing is the 2011 science fiction horror film about a team of Norwegian scientists who unearth a being buried deep beneath the Antarctica ice. The film is the prequel to John Carpenter's 1982 thriller of the same name. In 1982, a group of Norwegian scientists in Antarctica discover a space craft buried deep beneath the ice. Scientist Kate Lloyd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) is recruited by Dr. Sandor Halvorson (Ulrich Thomsen) to assist with the dig. After flying to the

Great choice - had almost forgotten. Polansky's trilogy of horror films is a masterpiece in film making.

The Thing was released in 1982 to very negative reviews. It was described as "instant junk," "a wretched excess," and proposed as the most hated film of all time.[1] Reviews both praised the special effects achievements and criticized their visual repulsiveness, while others focused on poor characterization. The film earned $19.6 million during its theatrical run. Many reasons have been cited for its failure to impress audiences: competition from films such as E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, which offered an optimistic take on alien visitation; a summer that had been filled with successful science fiction and fantasy films; and an audience, living through a recession, diametrically opposed to The Thing's nihilistic tone.

Not sure whether this fits under "horror," per se, but The Blair Witch Project was extremely eerie.
Getting goosebumps even at the memory of it.

I've just reminded two more brilliant ones, this time from 1970s
The Wicker Man (1973)
truly unique, a great study of blind faith
(but keep away from poor 2006 remake!)
Omen (1976)
that small boy is REALLY scary
