Every time I make one of these lists, things get shuffled around, so I'm going to go chronological this time.
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1919)
Nosferatu (1921)
Phantom of the Opera (1925)
West of Zanzibar (1926)
Frankenstein (1931)
Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1932)
Kongo (1932)
Dr. X (1932)
The Mummy (1932)
Island of Lost Souls (1932)
Freaks (1932)
White Zombie (1932)
King Kong (1933)
Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933)
The Black Cat (1934)
Bride of Frankenstein (1935)
Mad Love (1935)
The Body Snatcher (1945)
House of Wax (1953)
Horror of Dracula (1958)
Wow! 1932 was a really strong year for horror films.
Had a hard time dropping Vampyr and Night of the Demon; they made the list and got bumped on further consideration. I disqualified The Fly and Invasion of the Body Snatchers as science fiction with horrific moments. I would love to have included Svengali (1931) and The Lodger (1944), neither of which are horror movies in the accepted sense. Another tough choice was The Body Snatcher over I Walked With A Zombie; the latter is Jane Eyre with supernatural overtones, the former is the best of Val Lewton even though marginally a horror movie.

I discounted The Body Snatcher, because I see that as a thriller with horror elements. You already sort of point this out. I consider The Fly and Invasion of the Body Snatchers equal horror as sci-fi. The Incredible Shrinking Man I consider sci-fi with horror elements, which is why I don't include it.
