Best Known For: The Fly, Videodrome, A History Of Violence, Most Deserving IMDb Top 250 Candidate: The Fly David Cronenberg has always been a bit of an outsider, but that doesn't mean that the public don't eat up his films whenever he unveils a new one. If David Lynch, cinema's other weird David, can find his way into the Top 250, you'd think that Cronenberg's masterpieces might have had a shot. Of course, a director's ranking on the IMDb Top 250 isn't a particularly worthwhile judge of their talent, but Cronenberg is such an icon that's it's surprising that not a single cinematic effort has made the cut. At just 7.5, there's a sense that The Fly has been rated way too low by IMDb users, who clearly haven't realised that it's a full-fledged '80s horror masterpiece if ever there was one. Cronenberg's late-stage masterpieces, Eastern Promises and A History of Violence, also score 7.5 apiece - almost as if the site's users have been barred from giving the Canadian director's films anything more than that. You can be more generous, guys! It's okay!
