I'd like to see what you think of such films as Driller Killer, Dont Look Now, The Haunting (the original 1963, possibly my favourite horror film) and Les Yeux Sans Visage if you get a chance
Driller Killer's bark is worse than it's bite and I much prefer Ferrara's work in the late 80's/early 90's EG-King Of New York and Bad Leiutenant. Don't Look Now is a classic with the best sex scene ever. The Haunting I personally think is overshadowed by a little British film 'Night Of The Eagle' which I Found to be more more subtle. Eyes Without A Face is gobsmacking and up there with Onibaba for cerebral chills.

Your list suggests the more cerebral mind. Have you checked out Session 9 from about 4 years ago? I am sure you would love that.
