well, i know not everyone. it seems mostly everyone has some or all of those directors in their top 5, which makes sense. there is an elite group of directors that have made such incredible strides in the horror genre that they're (until this point, at least) impossible to outdo.

agreed

I started this thread to find out with whom everyone thinks I should be working.

I've already got two out of the top 5 most frequently listed directors working on screenplays of mine and I'm trying to decide who to write for next:D

Someone like Miike I don't count because his stuff that isn't necessarily horror is what I like best. Ichi the Killer, especially. It's his best movie, IMO, and it's not a horror movie. Same with Chronenberg. His horror stuff was good, and all, but I was never so impressed with him as a director until his most recent movies. I think Eastern Promises is his best movie yet.


Anywho, in no particular order:


Alfred Hitchcock
Kiyoshi Kurosawa
Dario Argento
Wes Craven
Romero

David Fincher is close to being in the top 5, but is barely edged out since I don't consider Zodiac a horror movie.
