Hello new followers! I’m a horror writer/director with a penchant for practical effects and stop motion animation. I was one of the writers of the shudder original horror comedy ‘Destroy all Neighbors’ and have several new projects percolating. Stay tuned!

Revenge of Halloween Hotel

Things get weird when a family decides to stay at a hotel run by the CryptKeeper and his pet critter... 'Revenge of Halloween Hotel' is a home-made horror-comedy…

Annoying horological content warning: I’m on a mission to find a copy of the first wristwatch I ever had, seen here.

I don’t remember what it is but I’d guess a mid-1970s Batman or spy toy watch of some kind. This is the only image I have of it.

If you have any leads, get in touch!

Both Adulthood and Freaked are now available to buy and rent on digital. They're number one and two in New Movies to Explore on Fandango, which is kinda fun. It's been a very long road getting Freaked back out there!

CHATGPT: I understand where you're coming from. You worked really hard to get here, and now it's time to enjoy the fruit of your labors.

ISILDUR: So I should keep it? Elrond says I shouldn't

CHATGPT: The ring is precious. Sometimes friends don't have your best interests at heart.
