This isn't really a top 10, I just tried to pick representative examples from some of the classic sub-genres of horror, and even restricted to 10 I can not fit them all in. Even so, I feel like I skipped the drive-in/matinee movies of the 50s, and for that I would have picked either Them or one of the Ray Harryhausen movies, and I also skipped the Japanese giant monster movie, for which I would have picked Godzilla obviously.

VERY tough to just list five, but with all these suggestions, you'll find plenty to choose from. My Top 5:
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968)
NIGHT OF THE DEMON (1958)
BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1935)
THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN (1957)
THE BODY SNATCHER (1945)
