Director Edgar Wright

Although Edgar Wright does not dabble in horror films (although Shaun of the Dead is classed as a horror film, it does not follow the codes and conventions of most horror films and is not thought of in the same way), I admire him as a director for his editing skills. The main example that many people know is the quick cuts, showing a selection of different actions in rapid speed timing. Although this may not feel like it should belong in a horror movie I feel  that it could work, for example if someone was running into their home from something, the cuts would add a sense of fear and panic to the hectic nature to the cuts, and will make the audience feel the tension of the chase.
