Vampire Day: Nosferatu
Monster Day: Gojira
Ghost Day: The Changeling
Slasher Day: Halloween
Alien Day: The Thing From Another World
Hammer Day: Curse of Frankenstein
Classic Universal Day: Creature From The Black Lagoon
Honorable Mention/Runner Up: Vincent Price Day: The Abominable Dr. Phibes

I agree with Straker. Liked your first list better.
Nosferatu is brilliant, the visuals really impressed me, but I don't think it stands up as well with the best talkies. Elm St would probably be in my Top 10. I'm a lifelong Godzilla fan, but having watch Gojira twice, I say, it's brutal to watch in full... in the sense the long foreboding sequences fill one with despair, it's not fun to watch. I always have fun watching Thing From Another World, but I think Creature From the Black Lagoon is really rather plodding and uninspiring.
