You're mindbogglingly shallow. You basically want to strip him of his vision and become a regular director-for-hire. There are plenty of Zombie fans out there, and it's his haters that continue to watch his films because guess what? They actually are interested in his work. Know why? Because he actually makes unique horror films. Dumbasses like you watch then hate, the cycle repeats. The haters are always loud and obnoxious.
I'll admit I dislike all of his movies, except Devil's Rejects and 31, but I'm always interested in seeing what he comes up with next because I think he's one of the more unique storytellers in the genre.

I don't see where your vitriol for the OP is coming from. He's just suggesting that Zombie is a good director but that it is actually Zombie's writing that causes so many people to dislike his films. I can't say that I agree, but suggesting that certainly doesn't make the OP a moron or a dumbass.
Also, your assertion that a director who does not contribute to a film's script is just a "director-for-hire" is not factual. There have been many great directors in film history that have had little to do with the writing of a script but who were able to put their "stamp" on the film. "Vision" comes in many forms beyond the writing process. In fact, the concept of a director as a visionary was developed in order to identify a director's contribution to a film when he did not have control over the script. So, I don't see validity in that statement.
