Psycho has been in my Top 10 film list for a long time, and that's all films, not just horror or suspense.

One of the best haunted house films, that never shows a ghost, is The Haunting (1963). Don't bother with any of the other adaptations of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House.

Guillermo del Toro's Cronos and The Devil's Backbone.

El Orfanato (The Orphanage)

Let the Right One In

The Host (2006 Korean)

The Babadook

A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night

I think that not only scary films, but edge-of-your-seat suspense would also qualify for this category.

One that comes to mind for me is Mute Witness.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110604/

I suppose Psycho, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Halloween, Friday the 13th (all derived from the true story of Ed Gein of Wisconsin - living very near the navigational center of the northwestern hemisphere - 90 degrees west, 45 degrees north) started or catapulted the genre, but what others have given you the willies? (not to mention, that the later study of Ed Gein spawned the entire Behavioral Science, Profiler, Criminologist, behavioral pathologist field.)

Feel free to list a bunch. One that you post and others have not seen could be in time for this Hallow's Eve.

And probably the scariest thing I can think of at the moment, the upcoming third Clinton/Trump debate.
