Director Biography - Jesse James Hennessy

Jesse James Hennessy, a writer, director, and editor, was born on May 9, 1980 in Grafton ND. Ever since his parents rented him a VHS camcorder over rad summer weekends back in the 80's he has been making movies. He fell in love with horror flicks ever since he saw Evil Dead 2 and knew that he wanted to make some killer horror films of his own.

His influences range from David Lynch to Roman Polanski, Cronenberg to Carpenter, Argento to Raimi. He is also influenced by the music, style, and aesthetic of the 1980's.

On set, Jesse surrounds himself with talented and genuine people while creating a positive, productive, and fun atmosphere that allows the best work possible to be made.

Jesse, now residing in Spokane, WA is a regular in local and international film contests with great acclaim. His current works include the upcoming Night of the Witch short film, the Mr. Dark series of short films, and a slew of other projects bubbling in the cauldron.
