I thought the most douchebaggy title to this thread would fit with my introduction since I've already gotten off on not great footing here by making first posts elsewhere. Never the less, I'd like to talk horror with people and this website still seems like a good way to go on that front.
I want to build street-cred despite my rocky beginning, and I'm sure I'll fail at doing that, so I've come up with my own version of 14 sub-genres of horror that I want to show off. I'm still working on fine tuning them, but I thought it might be fun to feature my top 2 from each of my categories in a futile and juvenile attempt to prove myself to the masses.
Haunted House Movies
Poltergeist (1982)
The Uninvited (1944)
Werewolf Movies
An American Werewolf in London (1981)
The Wolf Man (1941)

Creepy Kids Movies
The Omen (1976)
Village of the Damned (1960)

I still have to figure out how to get a couple other movies into these lists and how to change some of the categories, but this is where I am now on it.
