Jeff Lieberman is a writer, producer, and director that has worked in the genre numerous times (Blue Sunshine, Squirm, Satan's Little Helper, Just Before Dawn, Remote Control) and outside of the genre including kid friendly fare like The Neverending Story III. Lieberman is a director that is all about the mood and atmosphere and uses that to create heart stopping suspense. Most of his films might not be the most familiar, but he has done a solid job right down the line on every single film. If anything, he can be counted on for consistency even if he works infrequently.
