Yes, however, from what I remember... Oldboy wasn't all torture and violence. Most of the movie was him trying to figure out the web of conspiracy around him and take revenge on his captors. Torture is horror if the entire story is build around that like Saw. What separates Oldboy from Unleashed?

I don't thin Silence, Misery or Se7en are horror either. Misery is a drama. Se7en is a murder mystery. Silence of the Lambs is also a murder mystery. They just have really dark atmospheres and motifs.
