I'm Gary Parr, a London-based screenwriter passionate about stories that unsettle, provoke, and linger. I write across genres, but I’m most drawn to horror, sci-fi, and dark comedy—genres that allow me to explore trauma, memory, and the uncanny through a visceral, human lens.
Over the past few years, I’ve built a growing portfolio of short film scripts, including:
Death Walks Into A Bar – a genre-bending short blending fantasy, drama, and horror.
Teeth and The Call – both optioned by 6MP Films and part of The Toxicity Anthology, with Teeth entering the festival circuit in 2025.
I write with the belief that genre storytelling can be both emotionally grounded and wildly imaginative—and that even the darkest material can (and should) connect us to something true.
I’m always open to collaboration and welcome opportunities to bring bold, challenging stories to the screen.
