Question: Who directed a 1979 American horror film that starred one of only 12 athletes in the history of American professional sports to have played both Major League Baseball and in the National Basketball Association?
Context: The Cleveland sports curse was a sports superstition involving the city of Cleveland, Ohio, and its major league professional sports teams, centered on the failure to win a championship in any major league sport for a period of 52 years, from 1964 to 2016.  Three major league teams based in Cleveland contributed to belief in the curse: the Browns of the National Football League (NFL); the Cavaliers of the National Basketball Association (NBA); and the Indians of Major League Baseball (MLB).  Combined with the short-lived Barons franchise of the National Hockey League (NHL), Cleveland teams endured an unprecedented 147-season championship drought, having not won a title since the Browns defeated the Baltimore Colts in the 1964 NFL Championship Game two seasons prior to the first Super Bowl. The 1970s saw Topps go largely uncontested in the sports card market.  The decade featured full runs of baseball, football, basketball, and hockey.  Aside from issues like Kellogg's cereal premiums which ran throughout the 70s there was not much in the way of major national card manufacturers to compete with.  Topps maintained its license agreement with O-Pee-Chee in baseball and hockey.  The company would have significantly more ground to cover given the growth of the professional sports leagues during the decade.  Major League Baseball added four new teams in 1969 and two in 1977; the National Football League added two teams in 1976; the National Basketball Association gained three in 1970, one in 1974, and the American Basketball Association picked up one in 1972; the NHL acquired two teams in 1970, 1972, and 1974.  Soccer also made the Topps roster in the 70s, producing English and Scottish 'Footballers' for distribution in the United Kingdom.  Domestic soccer was not to be forgotten with a North American Soccer League sticker set in 1979.  The following are trading card sets issued by Topps in the 1970s.  All cards listed are standard size (2½ × 3½ inches).  Exceptions are noted. There are professional teams based in Canada in several professional sports leagues.  The National Hockey League has seven Canadian franchises and is the most popular professional sports league in Canada.  The second most popular sports league in Canada is the Canadian Football League.  Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association and Major League Soccer are also popular in Canada, more so in Ontario than the rest of the country. Sports teams in Florida include many professional, semi-professional, amateur and college teams.  In professional sports, Florida has three National Football League teams, two Major League Baseball teams, two National Basketball Association teams, two National Hockey League teams, one Major League Soccer team, and many minor league teams in various sports.  Additionally, since the late 19th century Florida has been a significant spring training destination for Major League Baseball teams and their affiliates.

Sports in the United States are an important part of the country's culture.  Based on revenue, the four major professional sports leagues in the United States are Major League Baseball (MLB), the National Basketball Association (NBA), the National Football League (NFL), and the National Hockey League (NHL).  Major League Soccer is sometimes included in a "top five" of leagues of the country.  All four enjoy wide-ranging domestic media coverage and are considered the preeminent leagues in their respective sports in the world, although only basketball, baseball, and ice hockey have substantial followings in other nations.  Three of those leagues have teams that represent Canadian cities, and all four are the most financially lucrative sports leagues of their sport.  Soccer is the most popular sport in the United States after football, baseball, basketball and ice hockey, and soccer is the fastest growing sport in the country.  Tennis, golf, wrestling, auto racing, arena football, field lacrosse, box lacrosse and volleyball are also popular sports in the country. Major League Soccer is the premier professional soccer league in the United States and Canada.  Competition began in 1996, the 2016 season saw an average 21,692 spectators between the 20 teams, the highest average attendance in league history.

Among all North American professional sports leagues, MLS ranks fifth in average attendance per game behind the NFL and MLB as well as Liga MX and the Canadian Football League.
