I am not into gory slasher films at all - but I like a nice suspenseful supernatural tale.
And if we're talking *old* horror pics, I particularly like 'Nosferatu, eine Symphony des Grauens' (1922); 'Das Kabinett des Doktor Caligari' (1920); Häxan (1922); and films by Tod Browning, who was making horror films between 1914 and 1939 - probably his most famous was the 1932 film, 'Freaks'
The thing that I like about silent horror movies is that because obviously there's no dialogue, the imagery used to build suspense is amazing. Who cannot love the shadow of Nosferatu's clawed hands moving across the wall? The weird out-of-perspective scenery in Doktor Caligari? Pure class.
