With directing credits that include HIGH TENSION (2003), THE HILLS HAVE EYES (2006), MIRRORS (2008), and PIRANHA 3D, filmmaker Alexandre Aja is likely best associated with horror. His latest feature HORNS, which held its regional premiere at Fantastic Fest, shows Aja continuing to make a name for himself within the genre.
