Some of the most literate and lyrical horror films were produced by Val Lewton for RKO in the 1940s. He co-wrote every script but did not take a writing credit on any of them. I understand that Martin Scorsese does the same today; not so unusual in someone who is primarily a director, but in Lewton's case, it is rare to find the combination of such creativity and generosity in a producer. All of his scripts can be found here. You can also find this site under "Links of Interest".
