Ooooo... Good thread.
Shoe-ins:
John Carpenter
Alfred Hitchcock
David Lynch
Roman Polanski
Fighting for the 5th spot:
Sam Raimi
William Friedkin
George A. Romero
Takashi Shimizu
Tim Burton (I am VERY excited about Sweeney Todd)
Notes:
I'm glad that someone else classifies Lynch as a horror director. I would love to see him do a strictly horror film. Then again, if he stuck to a single genre, he wouldn't be his wonderful Lynch self.
Directors whom I haven't delved into but I should:
Dario Argento
Mario Bava
David Cronenburg (I've seen Spider, which I found well-done yet predictable)

Reason: How could I forget Raimi??
