Excellent question!
I'm going to contradict myself here. First I'm going to say, if someone is not into Horror, I wouldn't try to get them into it. I've heard from a couple very beautiful people that Horror films (the Horror they know personally) are not a good thing, in that it brings some bad things into people's lives and their world, that it wasn't beneficial to them, and it brought some evil to them, to put it bluntly. To me, obviously all Horror films are not the same, and not all people's experiences are the same, but having said that, in regards to some Horror, I don't disagree with the people I referenced. And like most everyone, I limit the Horror I watch.
My contradiction is in naming the Horror I might actually recommend to specific people to introduce Horror films. I'd recommend Alien, which I think has a lot of worthwhile messages.
