Movie makers
 

Who are your favorite movie directors or filmakers, I have two faves Wes Craven and Rob Zombie there the best:rolleyes: so tell me what are your favorite movie directors & filmakers of all time:).

Re: Movie makers
 

dario argento, lucio fulci, mario bava, david cronenberg, john carpenter, george romero, tobe hooper, some wes craven...and plenty others.

horror directors: Jörg Buttgereit, Takashi Miike, Ruggero Deodato, David Cronenberg, George A. Romero, Peter Jackson

other favorite directors: Stanley Kubrick, David Lynch, Gaspar Noe, Philip Ridley, Roman Polanski, Ingmar bergman, Lars Von Trier

buttgereit & deodato i would have in my guilty pleasure section, along with lenzi & martino

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!

Re: Movie makers
 

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

Leper Messiah
 

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.

Re: Leper Messiah
 

In all fairness, that was as much a contibution as my post.

George A. Romero, John Carpenter, Roman Polanski. Happy now fuckhead?

Re: Re: Leper Messiah
 

the usual suspects reappear..throw in cronenberg and you've got a set.

Horror: George A. Romero, Sam Raimi (his Evil Dead Trilogy anyway), Wes Craven, Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento, Guillermo de Toro, Peter Jackson

Other: Spike Jonez, Christopher Nolan, Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream), Michele Quandry (new fav. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind)

i'm sure there's more that i left out..

Argento
Fulci
Bava (Both of them)
Deodato
Soavi
Kauffman (Mostly Troma movies arent really horrormovies, theres alot more comedy in them, but who cares :D )
Franco

Re: Re: Movie makers
 

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?

Re: Re: Re: Movie makers
 

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.

romero
craven (except chiller, and hills have eyes 2)
fulci
cronenberg
yuzna

some carpanter stuff but not all

I think seymour butts is a good director/producer as well.

Nazi Fuck!..........
