Introduce Yourself : Hey everybody! by Richard Cullen

Richard Cullen

Hey everybody!

Great to meet you all virtually, and was great getting to know people at the meetup event in Culver City last night!

I'm an LA-based screenwriter - mostly thriller/horror and horror-adjacent stuff. I won the Stage32 New Blood competition a couple of years ago, which got me representation and some rewriting/polishing work several production companies. I'm currently working on a couple of features and a pilot.

By day I'm a motion designer and vfx artist.

James Welday

Huge congratulations, Richard Cullen !

Maurice Vaughan

Glad the meetup was great, Richard Cullen. Congratulations on winning the Stage 32 New Blood competition!!! And congratulations on getting a rep and rewriting/polishing work!!!

Are your features and pilot Horror/Thriller, or are you switching up and trying new genres?

Richard Cullen

Thanks, James!

Hey Maurice. They all have elements of horror, but they're not straight up scarefests. One feature is essentially a western but has a familiar horror monster at the heart of the story, the other is based on a true story about someone who is manipulated into doing deeply unpleasant things to their own body, so it's sort of psychological body horror. And the TV pilot blends crime and thriller elements with a traditional ghost story!

Great to meet you last night, as well, Richard!

Hi Richard Cullen! Nice to meet you on here! I'm a writer too. I have a novel, screenplays, and TV pilots. Congrats on the New Blood competition and getting representation. That's amazing. I'm currently working on getting representation myself. I'd love to connect on here! :)

Cool, Richard. My scripts are genre mixes too. My favorite genre mix is Horror Comedy.
