I’ve always loved horror. When I was 13 I saw The Tingler with Vincent Price, at the Saturday matinee, still one of my favorite horror actors. Every night for months I had to check under my bed to be sure there wasn’t one under there!
horror movies and tv thrillers is my passion from when i was 4 yrs old and saw Mighty Joe Young in 1949 i ran out of the picture show and my dad caught me about 2 blocks later i have been hooked ever since

I liked the description of "David Cronenberg is widely regarded as the brains" to describe a film where brains blow up!

I'm not surprised you didn't include Fred Olen Ray. Would have been nice to see some acknowledgment of Don Coscarelli (the "Phantasm" franchise) and Clive Barker ("Hellraiser" among others). And definitely needed to mention Roger Corman.
daDoctah, surprised you, or whoever wrote this, didn’t note that “Duel” can occasionally be seen on “Svengoolie” on the MeTV network.
