Friday The 13th - Probably the first one. Also enjoyed JGTH for it's differences.

Halloween - Can't comment. Haven't seen any but #1 and one from a few years back...will update when possible...

A Nightmare On Elm Street #3 Seems to come to mind more than any other. Though the first one is pretty close.

Saw Only really liked 1 & 2. Things seemed to get rather convoluted after that point for me. I will say though, that #4 (That's the one that showed his "first kill" right?) was pretty decent too.

Scream Probably the second one. 3 and 4 had the weakest killers with the least reasonable motivations.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Another one I'm not sure which ones I have seen and not. The first stands as pretty classic to me. Some "new generation" one was terrible. I seem to recall seeing one of the earlier ones where two of the brothers attacked a radio station? That seemed a bit stupid.
Not really counting the new ones, having seen the latest - that sucked. I think I *may* have seen the one that told Leatherfaces origin prior to that, it was "not bad" but yeah I've found the great majority of tcm movies a bit weak.

Alien The first one. I mean the second may have been the best "action" film in that series, but the best film IMO is the first.

Predator Probably Predator 2.

Phantasm 1 & 3. Can't really remember much of the others.

Evil Dead The second one seems to get a lot of love, but the first always has been and always will be my favourite.

Hellraiser I liked the first one. Second and third were "ok" and the one about the origins of the toymaker was interesting but basically...yeah...not a series that's improved with age. Never saw the last two.

Child's Play - I really liked the second one, though in hindsight that may just be the most stupid entry in the original 3. I don't really count bride/seed, or whatever that last one was with the weird looking doll.

Final Destination
