I give the remake of the Friday the 13th, not too shabby.. Of course, it will never be like the originals, but it wasn't too bad.

60 % of the time, it works every time.

The Blob (original)
The Thing
Creature from the Black Lagoon

then there are the artsy, campy horror films that are just funny or far-fetched....

The Killer Shrews
Attack of the Giant Leeches
Manster

and for those that can't get enough of zombie-nazis,
Shockwave

There are way too many creature features to list all of them, and I'm sure that we all have our personal favorites.

How about old series like "The Outer Limits", One Step Beyond", Twilight Zone" and "Night Gallery"? Surely these merit some considerations?

Absolutely....I have all the original Outer Limits episodes....one of the best Sci-Fi series ever....effects were cheesy but the story lines were awesome.

Night Gallery was another of my favorites

I agree, that's why they merit mentioning.
Some of the stories from all series weren't just to frighten you, but also to make you think.
When they remade "The Outer Limits", they also remade a number of the old episodes....with a twist. I have most of those as well.

Nothing beats simple fright with a dash of social awareness!!
