I'm assuming he means Alexandre Aja,the french director who did The Hills Have Eyes and Haute Tension.

Wolfie
Yup. Sorry for the confusion.

Barker and Hooper directed one REALLY good movie each. Not that they haven't done anything alright since then, but I wouldn't consider them favorites based on one flick alone.

I forgot to mention Neil Marshall. Dog Soldiers and The Descent are awesome.

Edgar Wright, same, only directed one. He's coming out with a police comedy with the stars of Shaun which looks good.

Forgot to add George Romero. A classic director, if there ever was.
