Abel Ferrara

I love this guy's work. I hate to to use the clichéd phrase, but I feel he is a tad underrated. I really like how his films have remarkable, gritty quality to them. The characters in his films, tend to be, for the most part, caught up in self-destructive patterns. He often collaborates with screenwriter Nicholas St.John, who is also very good IMO.

Anyway, instead of listing some of my favorites (because I kinda like all of his movies) I thought I would just rank them:

The Addiction
The Funeral
Bad Lieutenant
China Girl
King of New York
Body Snatchers
The Driller Killer
Ms .45

There are a fair few more I have to see yet.
