Watch Dario Argento's films - Profundo Rosso, Suspiria, Inferno, Tenebrae. Those should all be quite easy to get hold of. Then start in on this list... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giallo
Suspiria in particular sticks in the mind. Great music, saturated colours, properly horrific horror. It's a bit more 'on-screen' than BSS, btw.
The other two films in what Carpenter calls his "Apocalypse Trilogy" are also well worth watching: "Prince of Darkness" and "In the Mouth of Madness". Neither has aged quite so well, but both are good and interesting horror films.
I feel that "Suspiria" and "Don't Look Now" are actually the best horror films ever made, but de gustibus non est disputandum, as they say.
