Poll: Bloodless Horror Movies

A poll by ElMaruecan82
While it's expected not to see much blood and graphicness from the early Warner classics, gore and graphicness have been associated to the horror-genre ever since the rise of the slasher film in the 70s. Still, many horror films resisted the trend and provided many thrills and jump scares without relying on blood or gory effects.

Which of these "bloodless" horror movies of the last 40 years is your favorite?
