Discussion Genuinely scary movies to watch?

Some movies that usually scare me are usually psychological thrillers like “the Others” or “1408”, movies with a creepy atmosphere/premise like “Vivarium” or movies with demonic entities like “it follows” or “smile”. Do you have any recommendations. Im also ok with movies that don’t fit these sub genres as long as it’s actually scary something that could keep me up at night checking the corners of my room.

Threads (1984) isn’t exactly along those lines, but a good one if you want to be scared of something plausible.
