Women directing

Can you guys name a few horror movies directed by women? I can only think of Pet Sematary right now. The earth is more than ready for movies directed by them and I wonder why there aren't much.

The Slumber Party massacre series, which was also written by women. Hmm... Isn't it interesting that the horror series with the highest participation of female artists also turned out to be the most exploitative piece of crap the eighties gave birth to?

On the bright side, look at the boobies!

Monster

'Monster' was directed by a woman. It's not really a horror film, more of a thriller though. I actually met her as well, she was at the Florida Film Festival this year, and she's HOT as well!

How the fuck should I know probably!
Why? Because it's a brilliant film, it's so funny, and the soundtrack kicks fucking ass!
