Pretty much what Zwoti and Staggerlee said!
Carpenter is my favourite above all though, because I think he's the total b-movie directing package! Movies , music scores, screenwriting and he always comes up with something fresh whether you enjoy it or not!
Plus I think, Hideo Nakata is putting alot of the creepyness back into horror movies!

How can Rob Zombie be your favorite? Is Tony Danza your favorite comedian too? Idiot.

I guess it is apparent that your sole purpose on this forum is to call people silly little names and contribute fuck all.
Consider this our final conversation. Living_deadgirl has a right to her opinion, if you don't agree, save your imature rantings for your elementary school debate.
Bye.

Good list.
My list would be the same except I would trade Fulci for Sam Raimi & Clive Barker.
For some reason Fulci just doesnt do it for me. Maybe I haven't seen enough, but what I've seen, I wasn't thrilled with...
Hey Zwoti, what's the best Fulci film in your opinion?

Hey Zwoti, what's the best Fulci film in your opinion?
i love barker (books and film) but nightbreed was ruined by the suits and that only leaves 2 films, hardly a career (even though they are great). the other reason i wouldn't include clive is the fact he has said he has no intention of directing again so effectively his career is over (though he seems to have something announced on imdb). same with raimi, i would classify only a couple of his films as genre efforts.
as for fulci, what you need to understand is that i'm not defending his work as a director as there a lot of better directors. but there is a lot to enjoy in his movies and he did make one excellent movie, the beyond.
