I've been known to talk and ramble on too much, so to appease the masses and my laziness, I'm only going to list the films of which I've watched in the past 19 months (without summaries or plotlines) that fall into your specific asking category.

Alright:

1408
The Evil Dead

(abrupt pause: I can't believe the first two movies on my list, which is now over 200+ titles and counting, started off with two horror flicks; too inside of a coincidence for anybody else to care, I know)
The Shining
Identity (close shave in terms of actual classification of a "horror film")
The Descent
CUBE (thanks to MexicanOnABike's recommendation, great little mindr%^k)
Rosemary's Baby
Shaun of the Dead (zombie comedy; most everyone knows this, but I'll point it out again)
American Psycho
From Dusk Til Dawn (not unrealistic to want to classify this as an action/suspense feature, but it does feature rampires)
Full Metal Jacket (the first half)
The Lost Boys (again, rampires... teenage ones)
Requiem (I think this is a foreign (French?) film dealing with .., ah almost gave away the ending; watch it.)
The Dead Zone (with Christopher Walken... not too scare-induing, but any Stephen King prod. will be classified that way)
Frailty (took me two times watching throughout to figure out what happened)
Omen I , II ... (I think I should watch III sometime in the next week, even though it's not as good as the first two)
The Return of the Living Dead (this is one of the best films I've watched in the past year; unbelievably good concept that also has some humor to it)
The Amityville Horror (original)


... that's all I can recommend. But also, the Child's Play sequel where Chucky is in the toy factory at the end (I believe the 2nd film in the series) is a good trip back nostalgia scream-filled lane.
