The Descent - I was out of the country when it was released and never got around to seeing it until last year. This movie is terrifying. While the premise is simple, the mood/atmosphere may as well be another character because it was so well crafted.

I'm with the PP, and would add Rosemary's Baby to the old scoool list.

I'm a horror movie fanatic and have at one time or another owned almost every horror movie ever made. Wow, I was shocked to see so many of my favorites mentioned when most people are like "The Exorcist." I'll echo some and add at least one or two new ones:

Event Horizon
28 Days Later (unfortunately almost unwatchable in > 480p)
The Descent
Aliens
Oculus
It Follows
Sinister (probably the single scariest movie ever for me)
Pandorum (guilty pleasure)
Prometheus (controversial I know)
The Thing (the original Kurt Russell one)
Martyrs (this one may make you faint at certain points)
I Saw The Devil (korean, but more of a thriller)
Jacob's Ladder (the original one with Tim Robbins)

Post 2000, I’m saying:
Insidious
Conjuring 1&2
Paranormal Activity 1&3
Sinister
Cloverfield
Ju-on
The Ring
The Descent
It Follows

Some underrated gems:
V/H/S
Cam
Veronica
Autopsy of Jane Doe
Unfriended

There’s other horror movies that I loved (like Get Out and Us) but I didn’t find them scary so much as psychologically thrilling and interesting.

I have been meaning to watch Hereditary. I heard it was terrifying.
