Movies that actually left me feeling unnerved:

The Witch

Bone Tomahawk

The Babadook

XTRO

The Hills Have Eyes (1977)

Top "fun" or interesting but not haunting horror movies:

Alien

The Thing

Friday The 13th Part 6

Evil Dead 2

House (1985)

(A lot of runner ups in the fun category, including basically all of the Jeffery Combs catalog, but I'm not even sure those can be considered "horror" instead of comedy with horror trappings. Similar to Dead Heat and the like.)

The Witch and Bone Tomahawk are absolute classics. now I guess I'll have to watch your other recommendations

House and House II are classics, nice to see a human with some taste

I had to look up House, I was only familiar with the Japanese one. I'll check it out.
