Pretty good list. But how did they omit Black Christmas? Or maybe it’s too well-known:

I saw that at a friend’s house in Aspen one night and had to walk two blocks to my car in the snow, then drive down valley to my apartment. The killer’s voice — totally freaky. Of course, my friend called me up in the wee hours, imitating the killer. Bastard!

Movie starred Olivia Hussey (Juliet from Romeo and Juliet), Margot Kidder (Lois Lane in Superman), and Andrea Martin of SCTV fame.
