[Streeter]

Aside from Exorcist -

Alien
The Exorcist
Jaws
Halloween
Dawn of the dead
Invasion of the body snatchers
The Omen
The wickerman
Deep Red
Texas chainsaw
Carrie
Nosferatu
Suspiria
Don't look now
Black Christmas
Salems lot

Phantasm

Aside from exorcist - I assure you horror movies are exponentially more scary now ususlly than then. However 70s might of have better made movies.
