Writer/Director/Producer known for a wide variety of modern horror films, most significantly cult favorite 2001 Maniacs (2005) and its popular follow-up, 2001 Maniacs: Field of Screamss (2010). Beginning his career as a New Jersey teenager pumping fake blood for 80's splatter classic The Deadly Spawn (1983), Sullivan moved to Los Angeles where he worked in development at New Line Cinema, co-producing Detroit Rock City (1999).With a directing style ranging from the 'splatstick' nature of the Maniacs franchise to the serious bent of teen thriller Driftwood (2006), Sullivan gained additional notoriety as celebrity director of Vh1's hit series Scream Queens (2008), as well as creator and host of "Shock N Roll", his weekly talk and video blog on leading web network Fearnet.Re-ing forces with director Adam Rifkin for the comedy/horror anthology Chillerama (2011), Sullivan contributed the musical segment I Was a Teenage Werebear (2011) starring Sean Paul Lockhart, followed by the Burt Reynolds starring vehicle Dog Years (2017), on which Sullivan earned an Associate Producer credit.Deeply affected by the 2013 death of his 'spiritual mentor' Ray Manzarek (with whom he was adapting a film version of Manzarek's novel The Poet in Exile), Sullivan took an extended break from the industry (and Los Angeles) to focus on health, friends and family. It was during this time Sullivan formed his own production company, New Rebellion Entertainment (with producing partner Mike Markoff), creating and developing a variety of projects he will produce and direct in 2022, among them the late George A. Romero's version of Edgar Allan Poe's "Masque of the Red Death" (in partnership with Dark Horse Entertainment), the suspense thriller "Lullaby" (to star and be directed by Abigail Breslin), and the branded franchise "Night Songs", which explores the paranormal romance between a music journalist and a vampiric young rock star featuring songs co-written by Sullivan with Doug Rockwell , Andreas Carlsson and Eric Singer of KISS Hide
