How good is Ti West?


He was enjoying a moment in the sun with all the fandom for X & Pearl but the honeymoon seems to be over with many people disappointed with MaXXXine.

So the question is where does he rank amongst the currently active horror directors? Is he one of the best or not?

His work;
- The House of the Devil (2009)
- Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever (2009)
- The Innkeepers (2011)
- V/H/S (2012) ['Second Honeymoon' segment]
- The ABCs of Death (2012) ['M is for Miscarriage' segment]
- The Sacrament (2013)
- X (2022)
- Pearl (2022)
- MaXXXine (2024)

He started out really good. In the early 2010's there were two horror directors I told people to keep an eye on.

Mike Flanagan with 'Absentia' and 'Occulus,' and Ti West with 'House of the Devil' and 'The Innkeepers.'

Mike Flanagan keeps getting better and better. Hopefully Ti West will impress again, at some point.
