Christopher Landon is an American screenwriter and film director best known as the writer of Disturbia (2007) and 2, 3 and 4 of Paranormal Activity. He wrote and made his first directorial debut on the satirical thriller Burning Palms (2010) and his most recent written and directed film was Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones (2014). The latest paranormal activity film in box office produced $90,904,854 which was a huge success. Landon helped produce a huge part of this as he filmed the home footage amongst this film, which is quite a big part of what this film is about. This film is about the paranormal amongst a family home and includes a lot of home footage as well as regular footage. As well as this success, his first directional debut on Burning Palms in box office produced $117,760,134. As he has worked in many successful horror genre films, we can watch trailers or the films to see what techniques make them so successful.

Tobe Hooper is an American screenwriter, film director and producer. He is well known for his work in the horror genre. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) was described as "one of the most influencial films ever made." This film in box office produced a total of $30,859,000. As well as this, he is known for Salem's Lot (1979) and Poltergeist (1982). As he is well known for the horror genre, it is important we research his work. I like how Hooper sticks to one particular genre as it shows he is good at his job in that genre. Horror is one of my favourite genres so his work inspires me and I enjoy each film he is a part of. As well as those famous films, he is also famous for..
