With the release of both Beau is Afraid and Evil Dead Rise this weekend, horror will be top of mind for film-going audiences. Not many people know the name Lee Cronin, but Evil Dead Rise is looking to make a splash. Cronin’s debut film The Hole in the Ground was a small film that rendered little at the box office. However; Evil Dead Rise may be the film that gets Cronin the attention of horror films. Ari Aster, on the other hand, is a name that we do know. His previous outings have mostly been embraced and he’s made a name for himself in the horror community. Beau is Afraid will certainly divide audiences, but that’s what makes him compelling. Either way, it’s inspiration for our poll this week as we ask you for your favorite horror filmmakers. There are so many great directors to choose from here, it’ll be hard to narrow down to just one. But who do you got?
Who is your favorite horror director?
