Guillermo Del Toro <<< Awesome

Freddie Francis
Lamberto Bava
Tobe Hooper
F.W Murnau
Peter Sasdy

So here's mine - As most of you know, I have a sad dearth of "classic" horror under my belt, so please excuse my philistine cinematic scope.

Takashi Miike
Chan-wook Park
Roman Polanski
Alfred Hitchcock
Guillermo Del Toro
Sam Raimi
David Lynch


I'm ashamed to admit that I haven't seen a single Fritz Lang film. I must really correct that.

Also, I am not a huge fan of Giallo; I believe that it's a matter of taste - Not knocking Argento, Fulci, or anything, but it's just my my thing. And I'm not a fan of HG Lewis - Don't really get why people like him so much but, as I mentioned, please excuse my philistine cinematic scope. :D

Agree. I love those films.

My ten:

Fritz Lang
Tod Borrowing
James Whale
Sir Alfred Hitchcock
Mario Bava
Terence Fisher
Roman Polanski
William Castle
David Cronenberg
Roger Corman
