I always thought The Mist by Stephen King would make a great, fun film, and was a little surprised it wasn't adapted for the screen sooner. But its coming soon now, and its one I am really looking forward to.
Clive Barker has several stories that would be great for the screen I think, and we are getting The Midnight Meat Train soon (another I am really looking forward to). I think it would be so much better if his talent was maybe directed toward adapting another of his stories for the screen, instead of a remake of Hellraiser.
But yes, I can think of many novels, and many short stories that could be great horror films. Like with remakes though, more than likely they would just screw them up.
