Alien Ditto.
House
White Noise O.K., so it hasn't even opened yet, but I have a feelnig about these things, and that film looks damn scary!

The Vanishing—1988 Dutch version is very horrifying. Also check out Carnival of Souls.

The MUST SEE scary horror movie of the moment is THE LAST HORROR MOVIE (2003). It's more disturbing than scary, but the twist at the end is a real jaw dropper!

There are lots of different types: suspense, slasher, zombie/monster...
It was already mentioned, but I'd like to give further props to House of 1000 Corpses. Rob Zombie's tribute to slasher movies of the 80's out-does itself.
I also really liked 28 Days Later. Part Return of the living dead, Part the Stand.
I thought the remake of House on Haunted Hill (with Geoffrey Rush) was pretty good.
The original Phantasm is also one of my personal favorites... although it's a little strange.
If you want something that's just plain disturbing, check out Johnny Got His Gun.

5. The Shining
6. The Babysitter
7. Happy Birthday to Me
8. My Bloody Valentine
9. Dark Water (Japanese Version)
10. Alice, Sweet Alice
Jessica Marbles: I smell gas!
Miss Withers: I can\'t help it, I\'m old.
Jessica Marbles: No, not that kind of gas. The kind that kills!
Miss Withers: Well, sometimes my gas...

One of the very few movies that REALLY scared me was The Omen, but that might have been because I was attending a Lutheran school at the time, and had been studying the book of Revelations in religion class. The teacher liked using scare tactics to make us behave.

The two scariest movies I have seen:
The Exorcist: still the scariest damn movie ever made
Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory: Yes, Willy Wonka. He killed those kids! Their disappearance scared me out of my seat in 1971.

I can't believe you mentioned this movie!!! I almost added this to my list too  However, it wasn't the disappearing kids that scared me most... it was those darn Oompa Loompas!!! Those guys freaked me out!!! I had nightmares about them until I was in my 20's.
