I wouldn't classify myself typically as a fan of horror movies (I still haven't seen a single edition of any of the Halloween or Friday the 13th slasher flicks), but I would suggest any of these as worthy additions to your list:
Vampire films -- Let the Right One In (2008). We found this via a recommendation on Knoxblab a couple of years ago and fell in love with the story. Much to our surprise, we enjoyed the American remake, Let Me In, too. However, our first choice is still for the original Swedish version.
Thirst (2009). A Korean Catholic priest becomes a vampire and finds it awakens not only a desire for blood, but also his sensuality. The movie could have gone wrong in so many ways, but it is a fantastic visual feast with a story that makes you sympathetic to the vampire without relying on sparkles.
