I love horror so much! I'll try to list some that may not be as popular as some others:

The Thing (1980's version) This is my favorite horror movie, it's a great mix of situation, tension, paranoia, and great practical special effects

The Autopsy of Jane Doe Very well done, interesting premise, and it's a wild ride

Evil Dead Rise While I'm a huge fan of Evil Dead 1, and 2, plus Army of Darkness, the 2013 Evil Dead reboot missed the main point and feel of the originals. So while the reboot would have been fine as it's own movie, as an Evil Dead movie it failed for me. Evil Dead Rise however 100% captures the feel and magic of the originals, and it is god damn brutal.

Overlord The movie, set in World War 2 had a trailer that looked pretty cheesy, like an over the top action movie set in WW2 with zombies. It was NOT that movie, it's wonderfully done setting wise, costumes, acting, and it's intense and visceral. I love this movie.

I may come back and edit my post to have some more suggestions.

“The Thing” is an amazing classic. I’ll add the 1970s version of “Invasion of the Body Snatchers”.

I have seen everything except the last one. Another one on my watch list!

Glad I could offer one solid suggestion! I look forward to hearing what you thought about it.
