Favorite Modern Horror movie Directors.
 
I'm talking about Rob Zombie, Wes Craven, Tobe Hooper, John Carpenter, Michael Bay, etc.

also...Favorite horror movie actors.
Meaning...Derek Mears, Tyler Mane, Robert Englund, Kane Hodder, Johnny Depp (As Glen in A Nightmare on Elm Street)

For me...My Favorite Slasher film directors are Wes Craven, Rob Zombie, John Carpenter (Halloween especially), Michael Bay (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003 and Friday the 13th 2009)
I really liked Corey Feldman as young Tommy Jarvis in Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter and his Cameo appearence in his dreams in Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning. Johnny Depp as Nancy Thompson's boyfriend, Glen in the original Nightmare on Elm street from '84, and I also really liked Derek Mears as Jason Voorhees in the 2009 Reboot of the Friday franchise and Tyler Mane as the sinister Michael Myers from Rob Zombie's reboots of the Halloween Franchise.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003 and Friday the 13th 2009 were both directed by Marcus Nispel.
From not knowing who your supposed favorite director is, to not knowing what a TV movie is, you have little credibility.

in no specific order: John Carpenter, Clive Barker, and Takashi Miike
I would put Kinji Fukasaku, but he directed Battle Royal II: Requiem and I have a strong hatred for that movie.
