About Aaron

Nashville-based indie film director of 13 features (11 out now, 2 on the way). Die-hard fan of horror, thriller, crime, dark comedy, and anything intense or suspenseful. I started by directing micro-budget horror "mockbusters" like "Curse of the Nun" and "Clowntergeist", and have worked my way up to fusing personal, original storytelling with genre thrills in films like "The Bigfoot Trap", "Painted in Blood", and "Bury Him". I also love working as a producer and collaborating with other indie filmmakers to help them get their films made, such as the film "Death Ranch".

My films can be found on Paramount +, Showtime, Peacock, Amazon Prime, Tubi, and (of course) anywhere you rent movies.

I'm super passionate about low budget filmmaking, and sharing what I can to help others make their movies happen!
