About Christoph

Writing and directing films has always been my ultimate passion. Since the age of sixteen, I have been writing feature-length screenplays in the horror and crime thriller genres. I am a huge admirer of writers/directors such as John Carpenter, Stuart Gordon, David Cronenberg, Abel Ferrara, Dan O'Bannon, Sam Raimi, and the list goes on. To date, I have produced/directed two of my feature scripts, with another on the way scheduled for a October 2016 completion date. I have infinite respect and love for cult classic movies, my favorites include Re-Animator, The Thing, Dolls, Hardware, Escape From New York, They Live, Invasion of the Body Snatches, Scanners, Videodrome, Bad lieutenant, etc. My life in the film world has been a neverending journey of lessons, trial and error, and let's not forget blood, sweat, and tears. My "film education" started in high school, where I attended TV/Film production courses. I later went on to work at Blockbuster, where I gathered a vast knowledge of what people wanted to see. I eventually found work at Shaw, where I wrote/directed TV movies and my own sketch-comedy show for the Shaw channel (aka public access television). Now, I solely direct my features, with no intent of ever giving up on this crazy dream. With a solid collection of visceral screenplays under my belt, I am now seeking to finally sell one of my fifteen features. If you're a fan of horror movies, I may be the guy you wanna talk to (to give you an idea, when Rogers Video still existed, my friend and I rented out the entire horror section at least ten times over. It was usually quite the verbal scrap with the employees to rent them, because most were r-rated, and I was just a kid. But with a little hustling...and my brother on the phone pretending to be my dad...I got the permission to rent them). Writing and directing is not something I want to do, it's something I NEED to do; it fuels me, and brings color and life into my world.

    Television (Adventure, Fantasy and Romance) Actor For Emma Swan, life has been anything but a happy ending. But when she's reunited with Henry - the son she gave up for adoption ten years ago - on the night of her 28th birthday, everything changes. The now 10-year-old Henry is in desperate need of Emma's help because he believes from reading a book of fairytales that she's the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming - who sent her away from the Enchanted Forest to be protected from a curse that was enacted by the Evil Queen. Emma initially refuses to believe a word of Henry's story but soon finds that his hometown of Storybrooke, Maine is more than it seems. Because it's in Storybrooke that all of the classic characters we know are frozen in time with no memories of their former selves - except for the Evil Queen, who is Storybrooke's mayor and Henry's adoptive mother Regina Mills. Now, as the epic "Final Battle" for the future of both worlds approaches, Emma will have to accept her destiny and uncover the mystery behind a place ... Written by Anonymous
