Carrsan T. Morrissey is an award-winning filmmaker, self-published author, and playwright from Cedar Falls, Iowa, known for horror films, thrillers, and powerful dramas with a distinctly independent feel.
Raw, uncompromising, and often heavy in tone, Morrissey's films are also known for their diverse casts and characters, especially in regards to the LGBTQIA+ Community.
Her films have been viewed over 2.4 million times online, and her novel "Old Wounds" debuted as one of the Top 25 best-selling new LGBT Horror Novels on Amazon, remaining on the Top 100 list for several weeks afterwards.
In the last 9 years she has written, directed, and edited over a dozen film projects, 7 of which are feature-length. Her newest work can be found at vimeo.com/matriarchfilms.
"My dreams are to highlight the cinematic beauty of Iowa, to create opportunities for artistic collaboration in the Cedar Valley, and most importantly to tell stories that defy classification and expectation.
I want to break the rules, and have fun doing it."
–Carrsan T. Morrissey
