Another great atmospheric movie, actually, one of the best, now that I think about it, is:

Freaks (1932)

This has amazingly dark and bizzare set pieces, and such an uncomfortable atmosphere and mood throughout. If anyone hasn't seen this, I highly reccomend it. (This was directed by Tod Browning, who also directed Dracula ('31))

Also, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) relied almost 100% on atmosphere, and it worked. With a brilliant set and very limited lighting, this film still works today.
