I'd add Earth Vs. The Flying Saucers and Invaders From Mars to the list as well. Both are low budget movies but were made by craftsmen who cared about what they produced, unlike today's hacks. The former has wonderful Harryhausen effects and some genuinely creepy moments such as when Dr. Marvin climbs over a dune and sees the flying saucer sitting on the beach. Invaders From Mars scared the hell out of me when I saw it as a 7 year old. The movie is cleverly told from the POV of a child and the sets have a nightmarish, distorted quality. Every authority figure he turns to has been taken over by the Martians. I can't imagine a scarier situation for a child.
