Best Horror Film, Each Year (1954-2019)

A couple of notes:
George Romero's Martin says 1977, but it was released in 1978.
The 1990s and early 2000s are tough due to lack of quality horror films, especially the middle of the 90s, and 2003-05ish. I tried to put my highest rated horror title for each year, but it doesn't mean I love said title or think it's legitimately the best horror title of that year. Ringu is a good example of this.
I may define 'horror' a little differently than some. There are a few films on this list that might be defined more popularly as a 'thriller' or 'dark fantasy' depending on the site/person.
