I know it's not a classic but "Event Horizon" is one of my favorite sci-fi/horror movies and you should totally watch it if you haven't seen it yet

I loved it. That being said some of the acting can be a bit cheezy at times but overall it's a quality space horror.
Is "The Thing from Another World" in anyway related to the 1982 movie "The Thing"?

You know what they really need to make into a movie..."At The Mountains Of Madness" by HP Lovecraft. I found a radio show version which was pretty cool but I want a movie dammit

A bunch of David Cronenberg's earlier movies are awesome if you love B psychological horror/suspense/monster movie type stuff. Not as old as some of the movies mentioned but I consider them classics.
Shivers (1975) Rabid (1977) The Brood (1979) Scanners (1981) Videodrome (1983) The Fly (1986)

Love that pic in OP! Does "Nightmare before Christmas" count? I watch it around this time every year simply for the nostalgia.

Shoot I got all excited because I thought this thread included books and I was gonna say A Scanner Darkly.
I'd recommend the movie too, but that's not really old enough to be considered a classic.

Late 70's or early 80's era cult classics were some of the best. Craven, Cronenberg, R. Scott, and Carpenter

Return of the Living Dead is awesome.  That's a bit more of a black comedy, but still such fun to watch around Halloween.
OP, there have been a ton of excellent suggestions. Creepshow is pretty cool, I think I'll watch that soon. Also, to whoever posted about Carnival of Souls, here's a pretty trippy video you might enjoy with one of my favorite songs ever over footage of it.
If you want to delve a bit deeper and get into something a bit more obscure, I'd suggest Italian horror. Argento's Suspiria would be a good start. It has such beautiful images and the sound design is so far out.

spoiler alert
i didnt get event horizon, how come the original crew all went psycho crazy at the same time, but the rescue crew kinda went crazy one at a time
is it because the records for the original crew was taken when they were in the other dimension?

The original crew went to a different dimension; A dimension of "pure chaos" is what one of them called it I think. When the Event Horizon came back to our dimension it brought "something" back with it from the crazy dimension.
