as much as I think Nosferatu is a masterpiece, I can't let The Texas Chain Saw Massacre 1 and 2 ,Eaten Alive,Salem's Lot,The Funhouse,Poltergeist,Invaders from Mars and flawed as it is Lifeforce go unrewarded.

Tobe Hooper

Straker 04-27-2012 06:27 PM

Tobe Hooper... Not an easy round, two of my favourite directors in Hooper and Murnau. Faust is an incredible movie.

fortunato 04-27-2012 07:22 PM

Doggone it. Rrrrr...Murnau.

Dude made Godzilla. Nuff said.

I gotta say V, i like the way you're presenting the directors. You've had two directors of Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies going head to head and now you have a man whose directed a Clive Barker story and Clive Barker himself. Nice touch.
