"An American werewolf in London" is my favourite, although not the scariest for me. And I remember "The Thing" being one of the first horror films I saw... great list.
UK had a 100 Greatest Scary movies countdown and "The Shining" edged out "The Exorcist" on the poll. I think atmospheric-wise, you can't top "The Exorcist".
Although in recent years, the only film that scared me (for about a week) is the original Japanese "Ring".
