Can Onimusha really be classed as horror? I mean I dunno, the series hasn't really caught my attention since the first, and that wasn't scary in the slightest. And Devil May Cry? If that's horror then you might as well shove Ninja Gaiden and Hello Kitty Roller Rescue on the list. ;__;
The Resident Evil series had never done anything for me 'till RE4. In the past titles, I always knew when some dumb shit was going to happen because of the camera angles and general silence of some hallways. Oh dear! A zombie kitten shooting tuna from its arse has appeared from this window! It's moving really slow! It can be easily avoided! RE4 was all "HAHA GONNA CHASE YOU THE HELL DOWN NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO" though. The chainsaw guys (and girls) freaked me out something shocking.
I made a thread about this before GFF crashed into a brick wall and died the the third time in three seconds, but I highly recommend Michigan, developed by Grasshopper ('sup Killer 7). Hard as hell if you're American because it only got a Japanese and PAL release but stiiiiiill! You're the camera man of a news team, investigating the sudden blanket of fog, when blah blah crazy stuff happens monsters and so forth there's an in-depth story blah blah.
Think Fatal Frame, on a much larger scale, with a rather pointless perverted twist (you get points for zooming the camera in on the reporters tits and up her skirt when doing a news report, there's also a strip tease bonus you can unlock after finishing the game.. perhaps explains the lack of US release maybe). Also you have NO WAY of defending yourself, you have to leave it up to your soundguy or the reporter to take down enemies. You'll have to focus on them though.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
