Got ya. Knowing all that, and it has the laws of Canada, helps a lot. That being the case, you already know your audience pretty well. Let's just assume you already know all of these films content are OK with the audience. Then I'd recommend one of these, which will keep everyone wide awake, on the edge of their seat, and produce discussion:
The Exorcist
Poltergeist
The Thing 1982
From one who considers himself to have a high attention span for film, it's subtler aspects, not to mention an avid documentary viewer, I think The Shinning has some rather slow periods for some. Carrie is a nice choice as well; depends on what subject matter you think would have the most interest.
