Same as the others. These are not necessarily the movies I think are the best, but ones that I enjoy quite a bit for one reason or another. Probably catch a lot of flack for having some of these on here and not others, but oh well. I just really enjoy watching these.

10. Hereditary

9. Halloween 2018

8. Frailty

7. 1408

6. Alien

5. Halloween

4. The Conjuring 2

3. Se7en

2. The Conjuring

1. The Thing


Difficult narrowing it down, I thought about Silence of the Lambs, Bone Tomahawk, The Descent, The Shining, Evil Dead, Cabin in the Woods, The Fly, Get Out, Nightmare on Elm Street, A Quiet Place, and many more, but for one reason or another, I just enjoy watching these more whenever they are on... or after a while, I find myself turning to these to rewatch more often.

A list where I can finally say I have seen everything on there lol. Dude, I know the director that did Hereditary is the same as Midsommar.... but my goodness was Midsommar f'ing crazy.
 
I just watched The Exorcist for the first time start to finish.... so I need to update my list. I don't want to think too hard on this as I could change a lot of things around, so it would look like this now...

This has to be at the top of my list.
Maybe #1
It is good. I am partial to supernatural movies, thus The Conjurings, The Exorcist...are right up my preferred alley lol. And being honest, 1408 is probably a little too high on my list but for some reason I enjoy it.

How Halloween 2018? The rest is all debatable but not sure anything Halloween outside of Halloween 2 is even really considered a horror or thriller.

All of the Halloweens are considered horror. Not sure what you mean.

Salem’s lot
 
The Silence of the Lambs

In no order.

Alien
Signs
Evil Dead
Night of the Living Dead
Terminator
The 7th Sign
Jaws
Silence of the Lambs
The Birds
Dual



Just one's I can watch over and over
 
The Exorcist
Hellraiser (surprised no one mentioned these)
Well to be fair, the Hellraisers aren't that great. Sure, Pinhead is iconic nowadays, but this series is basically based off of the best lay someone ever had and a lady getting dick whipped lol.
 
The Silence of the Lambs
A Nightmare on Elf Street
The Exorcist
The Conjuring
The Thing
The Shining
Halloween
Alien
The Terminator
Se7en

No particular order.
I googled this just in case it was something I didn't know about lol.

Yeah, I am not a big NoES fan. Freddy is one of the most iconic slashers though. Interesting that you have the Terminator on there, I was talking with some guys on the SH a month or so ago about that and whether they thought it was horror as well.

All the others are just solid classics.
