Wes Craven, but Alfred Hitchcock is no doubt a master. There is new age horror that I like but I wouldn't consider Eli Roth or Adam Green among my favorites. James Wan seems to know what he's doing.

I know he isn't necessarily a horror director but as far as horror creators go I think Robert Kirkman is at the top of his game right now with The Walking Dead (2003 - Present) comics. I've read up on the comic books and they far surpass the show by miles.

Wes will always be my favorite director. My two favorite horror films are People Under the Stairs (1991) and A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). I love that man's philosophies on life. His work has intrigued me ever since I watched an interview with him at the end of the Nightmare on Elm Street VHS I use to have as a kid.
