Horror Flicks No One Should Go Without Seeing

As I read this new Forum I see many movies that multiple people agree are great, and must sees. Movies I have never seen myself. So what are the greatest horror movies, in your guys' opinions, that everyone should see at least more than once in their lifetime.
