Follow Ups:
28 Weeks Later was enjoyable, as well.
Exorcist III
Pulse, from 2006, a remake of Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Kairo - which I would also put on the list.
I think Michael Rooker did such a good job in Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, that it slowed down his subsequent career.

I'll add "A Tale of Two Sisters". It's probably may favorite.
As believable a story of survival as one could imagine given the genre. The music at the beginning definitely didn't hurt.
To your (great) list I'd add Return of the Living Dead. Very funny but at its core, quite serious, and my favorite zombie flick.
I'd also add American Horror Story. Unrelentingly dark and probably the scariest thing ever on network TV. I can't timagine Season 2 even approaching the scares of Season 1.

Do I have to spell it out?
C----H----E----E----S----E
A---N---D

Oh no.....
"I'd like to own a squadron of tanks"
I'll add a few more:
Legend of Hell House, Juon (japanese version), Dark Water (Japanese version), Kairo (Pulse) (Japanese version), Cursed (Japanese version), Shutter (Thai version), Versus, Tomie (all), ***Uzumaki***(a personal fave), Tale of Two Sisters, The Eye (HK? version), Mirrors (Korean version), Death Note, Spider Forest, Whispering Corridors (All), Forbidden Love (Korean TV series), The Heirloom (thai), The Twins effect, 999-9999 (Thai-rather gory), Green Snake (not sure of this title), Moon Over Tao.
There are lots of others I'm forgetting.
JackPS. 1408 is a good Hollywood horror flick-no gore etc, but good atmosphere.

I would add The Haunting, a timeless movie of classic unseen horror. See the 1963 version.

That said, Thailand did contribute quite a few movies to the wave of Asian Horror in the 2000's. Generally not as good as the best Japanese or Korean horror, but they did make a few good ones.
