Mike Blesch is a writer originally from Southern California, now based in Colorado. His latest work fuses grounded realism with high-concept stakes, exploring humanity's most primal instincts in Primitive and our place in the cosmic unknown in Ultraterrestrial. Whether depicting brutal survival or slow-burn paranoia, Mike's screenplays blend visceral tension with existential themes. He draws inspiration from filmmakers like Terry Gilliam, Richard Linklater and Guy Ritchie, and films like 12 Monkeys, Snatch, The Ninth Gate, and Coherence.
