I have to go with The Shining. It transcends the genre as one of the greatest films of all time. The Excorcist gets a close second, and whatever is third is pretty far behind.
 
the shining is probably the best, but 28 days/weeks later will always be my favorite horror movie/series.
 
The Exorcist scared me so much on my first viewing of it.
 
This thread has been done about 500 times. Its almost always the same result. The Shining, The Exorcist, and The Thing will soak up the lions share of votes.

You forgot this. @BisexualMMA @splendica

 
The best movie for me on the list is Saw, but I don't consider Saw as a true horror movie like others on the list (except Get Out). So The Exorcist gets my vote.

Saw turned horrorish for me at the pig head scene. The last 15 minutes is what made the movie great for me. But it's definitely borderline horror, like Silence of the Lambs maybe.
 
The Exorcist is in the lead thus far, followed by The Shining and The Thing.
