The Thing.
-One of the scariest, creepiest, knock you down pick you up and blow you away sci-fi movies. I know it was a remake.. but this version is the one to see imo. (yes i've seen both)

Escape From New York
-C'mon Snake Plisken is the toughest of them all.

Big Trouble In Little China
-My personal fave. What a wicked movie with some of the best one liners ever.
The rig 'Porkchop Express' with the sillouette of the woman on the front and it says: 'Haulin Ass'
ahahah.... Jack Burton.. hahaha... i laugh just thinkin about it..

Hmm all of those movies have Kurt Russel in em...

What are some other good ones he's done?

Oh yeah They Live! was a definite B grade movie.. but it was a pretty wicked story, the first time i saw it i was rocked by what was going on in it..

Halloween..
-period.
He's my fave Director too!

My Favorites are:

1. Halloween
2. The FOG (DVD was awesome)
3. Big Trouble in little China
4. They Live "I'm here to chew bubble gum and kick ass........"
5. Escape from New York
