Biography

Sean Haitz was born and raised in Sarasota, FL. He has been passionate about making movies since the age of ten when he picked up his first video camera. His first film with a production team was a twenty-minute short called Swamp Zombie. He rallied up friends and family to help be the actors and crew members. He was thirteen at the time. Growing up he's always been obsessed with Halloween. At age ten, Sean and friends put together their own haunted house. He dressed as Freddy Krueger used warm liquid latex on his face to make it more realistic. I got such a thrill from jumping out of the dark and scaring people. His first film to gain notoriety was Mangrove Slasher 2, a forty-seven-minute horror/shlock comedy. The budget was $600 and a bucket of blood. It sold out all three showings in the Sarasota Film Festival and received a cult following from tons of horror news coverage. His first feature film Big Top Evil had a thirty-thousand-dollar budget and was picked up by Gravitas Ventures Studios with a worldwide release late summer 2019. (Now available on demand and Blu-Ray.) In the film we have a cameo from horror icon Bill Moseley. Sean is also an established singer, musician songwriter with a SCI-FI surf punk band Cosmic Jetties playing venues, themed conventions all around L.A. Look out for Sean's new film Cannibal Comedian late 2020.
