The 1980's, without a question. The Evil Dead (1981) has inspired so many other horror movie directors, The Fly (1986) is breathtaking in every point of view, Hellraiser (1987) is one of the most iconic horror movies ever made.
The handmade special effects in the 1980's horror movies are overwhelming, more scary and more believable than today's CGI - and there are no boring mobile phones.
I also like some black and white movies from the late 1950's / early 1960's from Hitchcock. Some weeks ago I saw Tarantula (1955) for the first time – and it was really impressive (because it was filmed with a real spider). CGI is really overused in today's horror movies. I don't like it. And I don't have the impression that today's directors have the freedom to make such movies like Eraserhead (David Lynch, 1977) or Braindead (Peter Jackson, 1992).
