-
verdict (verdict):
Adam Wingard → You're Next.
Chris argues Wingard may be the most consistent genre director of the decade; Sean pushes back and calls him both most creative and most disappointing.
“there's an argument to me that Adam Wingard is at least the most consistent R director of the decade”
