1. The Exorcist
2. Phantasm
3. The Omen

Can't think of any others that had a profound "scaryness" to them.

Fire in the Sky

All other supposedly 'skeery' movies never did anything for me

Phantasm?

Man... I loved that movie... I laughed all the way through it.

No particular order:
Halloween
Jaws
Alien

It seems that horror and thriller movies are best for the young. Nowadays, the things my children will watch aren't scary for me. There's nothing new. No new surprises. It seems that scary movies today are just recycled scenes and ideas from the past.

not in order:

Jaws
Signs
Alien (or Aliens cant decide)

The Car. scared me more than any movie ever, saw it as a kid, and i was in a full sprint outside at night taking out the garbage for years.

Hard to describe how freaking scary the Exorcist was when is first came out.

When I was a kid...

An American Werewolf in London. (Probably still my favorite horror/monster movie).

And:

Evilspeak

I haven't seen any of this movie since I was about 9 years old, so I can't tell you if it was scary or not, but satanic computers and maneating pigs were a bit too much for me as a kid.

I have that movie sitting on my desk at home, via netflix. I'm still trying to decide if it will be better to watch it, and see how it is, or just let it live on in my memory "as is"
