Yeah, like Rev said, the 9th and 10th spots were hotly contested for me. Many fine runners-up mentioned in other lists. Glad someone listed Jean Renoir. He's a close call for me, particularly for THE RIVER and LA REGLE DU JEU.

RCMerchant, you should definitely watch THE HOLY MOUNTAIN. That's my 6th or 7th favorite film of all time and it's waaay more fun than EL TOPO.  Smile

Directors I had overlooked too were mentioned after I threw my list together.  Maybe I should have mentioned TOBE HOOPER or BOB CLARK !!!

finding this tough, because I cannot think of one single director where I genuinely love more than about 2 or 3 films they've done, max?

Scorcese - GOODFELLAS and CASINO would both be in my top 10 ever. not interested in anything else he's done...

Linklater: DAZED & CONFUSED top 10, don't rate a single other film I've seen by him...

Tarantino, PULP FICTION amazing, nothing else comes close...

Coen Bros, FARGO top 10, BIG LEBOWSKI and BURN AFTER READING great, not really into anything else, and some of their stuff flat out sucks

Lynch: MULLHOLLAND DRIVE and WILD AT HEART excellent, not into anything else

Argento: DEEP RED and TENEBRAE awesome. everything else take it or leave it, and again some dreadful crap

^^ haha you’re right about Fulci… I own more movies by Fulci (and Umberto Lenzi) than any of the ones I mentioned above, but to put those two in the same category as Lynch, Scorsese etc seems ridiculous. No matter how much I like their stuff (which is often so bad it’s good) I can’t say they’re ‘great’ directors

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
