 | The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (Special Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $17.99 / Used from: $8.38 A brilliant 1919 German silent film. Great ending for it's time, in my opinion. One of my favorites.
|
 | Nosferatu
Buy new: $7.98 / Used from: $2.25 Of course, I must include this 1922 silent German classic. The original vampire Count. Decently creepy for it's time.
|
 | Repulsion
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $6.73 1960's. Once left alone in the apartment as her sister enjoys a vacation, Carol -- an already odd and withdrawn young woman -- succumbs to her paranoia of men. Polanski delivers quite a film here.
|
 | Pumpkinhead
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $6.60 I'm stretching into the 1980's for this one, but it deserves it. One hell of a monster flick.
|
 | Psycho (Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $7.50 Of course, I can't exclude 1960's greatest thriller. This will probably remain a regularly watched film for ages.
|
 | Night of the Living Dead
Buy new: $4.98 / Used from: $1.22 Romero gave the world a terrifying vision of horror in the late 1960's and it still lives on today.
|
 | The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Buy used from: $0.94 I don't think I really need to say anything about this classic. A 1970's gem.
|
 | Horror Classics, Vol. 1: White Zombie
Buy new: $13.49 / Used from: $8.03 In 1932, Lugosi was Murder Legendre -- a zombie master with sinister plans for a couple of Haiti tourists.
|
 | The Asylum
Buy new: $22.49 / Used from: $4.95 A nice little asylum-horror treat from the 1970's.
|
 | Hellraiser
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $4.45 Again, it's the 80s, but this one was so ahead of its time it should definitely be on here. The beginning of the (cinematic) Cenobites!
|
 | Don't Look in the Basement
Buy used from: $4.00 Another 1970's the-inmates-are-running-the-asylum flick, this is one of those movies that end with a fading whimper rather than a bang, yet leaves you with a special isolated/tragic feeling.
|
 | House by the Cemetery
Buy used from: $4.44 A pretty much cult-status film, this is a remotely cheesy foreign 80's flick that presents an interesting and creepy story of a monster maniac known as Dr. Freudstien.
|
 | Creature From the Black Lagoon
Buy new: $12.99 / Used from: $6.78 A 50's gem. The creature's costume is amazing for it's time. A prime example of an old scifi/horror film that is better than many modern-day attempts at the genre.
|
 | The Exorcist (The Version You've Never Seen)
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $3.74 Of course you've got to include this. Don't think you can be significantly creeped out by a 70s flick? Think again.

![Don't Be Afraid of the Dark [VHS]](http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/nav2/dp/no-image-no-ciu._SL75_V46836203_.gif) | Don't Be Afraid of the Dark [VHS]
Buy used from: $29.99 An early 70's horror piece that by many was/is considered one of the scariest movies for it's time -- just somehow overlooked. There are DVD versions, but Amazon doesn't seem to sell them.
|
 | Carnival of Souls
Buy new: $4.98 / Used from: $0.52 A 60's horror flick that's decently creepy and has a great twist ending for its time.
