How about The Thing? That's pretty darn crazy. Horror is controlled surrealism for me.

I see what you mean. With The Thing, it's an ultra realistic film, but the creatures surprise as surreal, like legs sprouting from a head. Controlled surrealism. Even though I think the creatures follow real physics and genetics, the imagery strikes as surreal. As the film is so logical (to me it is), I wouldn't call it a surreal film, but I'd agree it's horror is controlled surrealism.
