Blood, guts, language, & nudity. (Some of them even have time to think about a plot!)

Just kidding...
I think 1 thing that is essential to have a horror film is an R rating or beyond. People will argue this because there will always be some people that think 6th Sense is horror. It's not. A ghost story doesn't necessarily constitute horror. (Remember that gay movie 'Ghost'? Definately NOT horror.)
And while it's true that some of the older classic horror movies don't have an R rating. I think it's safe to assume that if they were remade, they would.
