In no particular order:
Alex “Civil War” Garland: Annihilation (Adapted by), Men
Jordan “MadTV” Peele: Get Out, Nope, Us, Him
Ari “Eddington” Aster: Hereditary, Midsommar
Robert Eggers: The VVitch, The Lighthouse, Nosferatu (Adapted by)
Zach “WKUK” Cregger: Barbarian, Weapons
David “No, not THAT one” Mitchell: It Follows, Under the Silver Lake (probably more of a 70s paranoid thriller than horror)
Osgood “I mispelled it in the image but I’m not fixing it” Perkins: Longlegs, The Monkey (Adapted by)
Julia “Heir to the Cronenberg kingdom” Ducournau: Raw, Titane
Panos “I did it before it was cool” Cosmatos: Beyond the Black Rainbow, Mandy
There were definitely unnecessary shots, but I think overall the camerawork was an integral aspect of the film, because it’s meant to convey a dissociative and alienating mood by avoiding letting you see things from which you would naturally focus on to get grounding information, such as people’s faces, and by rejecting that I think it does a surprisingly good job relative to the simplicity of the technique for at least nudging the viewer in the direction of the struggle for situational awareness that you feel in some types of nightmare. To me, it’s easily one of the most nightmare-like films I’ve ever seen.
Without the camerawork, I think it would be a much more boring and unexpressive film, even if the novelty of the basic premise and the strength of the script would still be worth mentioning.
