Well, Whale directed my favorite horror film...

Romero directed one really great movie, a couple of really good movies, a bunch of okay movies, and some kinda sucky movies...

Htchcock rarely failed, and at his best, was pure genius. His influence cannot be overestimated.

I'll have to vote for Sir Alfred.

Hitch

and The Birds and Psycho are most definitely in the "horror" genre.

My logic is the same with Ridley Scott...It's percentage of output...so out of say 60 movies that Hitchcock directed he did 2 "Horror" movies...vs Romero who has directed say 15 films and at least 10 are in the Horror Genre.

I just don't consider someone a "Horror Director" unless a large majority of their output is related to the Genre.

And in all honesty, I wouldn't say Romero has spent his life "evolving the horror genre." I'd say he spent about ten years doing that and the rest of the time spinning his wheels.

I don't get why some people are upset with the end result. It's Alfred Fucking Hitchcock for godsakes. Its not like Uwe Boll or M. Night Shyamalan won or something.

depends on what kind of torture porn it is. something like guinea pig series i'd call boring myself. but not many people will call newborn porn boring. or raping teenage girl next to her dead and rotten fiance. or raping a corpse in the guts during autopsy. usually one will find another word to describe it.
but anyway Postal isn't even a torture porn at all. and it still better than birdies...unless you have birdiephobia

i took that shit from the movies, so no easy bucks for me. i think every sick idea already exists in some movie...which is kinda sad. but what did i want to say... oh, movie makers didn't come up with dracula. bram stoker did. so, they didn't invent anything new. just took the novel and filmed a movie. even i could do that, just give me some money and meth for inspiration

btw "phycho" is about a maniac. no monsters there. just a regular looser who went kookoo once upon a time and cut a chick in a bathtub.
even if we gonna honor hitchcock cuz he was the first in cinematograph to make that sort of movie, there were lots of films better after it (not even torture porn ones)...seriously...when you ask someone who they had the best sex with, they not gonna always name you the first one. they certainly remember the first one ( if they weren't too drunk), but in most cases not the first one will be the best one, right?
