The Brood is my favourite Cronenberg! I'm surprised you abhored it so much given how much you loved The Fly and Videodrome (which I'm not crazy about, BTW).
I think that Pulse although not scary in the common sense of the word may be one of the scariest horror films if you think about it. The reason it's so effective is the fact it talks about one of our greatest fears.
I highly recommend the director's other film Cure. A thriller, but the atmosphere is even denser!
What Time Is It There? is actually my favourite Ming-liang Tsai film and a movie. I adore how the movie looks at time and distance (of all kinds) between people. Besides, the atmosphere is freakin' perfect. Goodbye, Dragon Inn and The Hole are safe bets if you loved this one.

For a lonely person the perspective of eternal loneliness after death is the scariest thing ever.
