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?
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.
