B. Scott O'Malley has written and directed three feature films, and has
penned dozens of feature screenplays, including the post-apocalyptic
science fiction comedy, Bleak Future. His off-beat sense of humor and
unique satirical vision have garnered O'Malley and his films a legion
of die-hard underground film fans worldwide.
O'Malley started making Super 8 films at age 15, completing three
feature films on VHS by his first year of college.
After graduating from California State University Fullerton with a
Bachelor's Degree in Radio-television-Film, he completed his first
significant feature film, Bleak Future, shot entirely on Super 8 sound
film stock, a film stock that Kodak ceased all production of while
Bleak Future was still shooting.
Soon after Bleak Future, at the behest of Film Threat's Chris Gore,
O'Malley went to work for legendary B-film maverick Roger Corman, where
he honed the craft of script development and independent filmmaking
with limited resources.
Minimum Wage, O'Malley's next feature film, was a romantic comedy about
a Hollywood agent who sells his soul to the devil, and ends up having
to work fast food. Featuring Michael J. Anderson of "Twin Peaks" and
HBO's "Carnivàle" the film garnered praise from Film Threat at the No
Dance Film Festival in Park City.
Soon after, O'Malley co-wrote and produced the feature film Boppin' At
The Glue Factory with Director/Writer Jeff Orgill and Brooklyn Reptyle
Films, a dark comedy about a junkie who runs the night shift at a
retirement home. The screenplay was a two time semi-finalist for the
prestigious Sundance Screenwriting Lab and the film was selected to be
one of ten features to participate in the IFP Narrative Rough Cut Lab
in New York.
Audie & The Wolf was O'Malley's next feature film writing and directing
effort. A romantic horror-comedy, Audie & The Wolf is the legend of the
werewolf, told in reverse. That is, a wolf turns into a man, instead of
the other way around. Featuring bloody murder, rollicking romance, and
an all-original 70's rock and roll score a la Flash Gordon, in the
spirit of An American Werewolf in London, The Rocky Horror Picture
Show, and Shaun of the Dead.
O'Malley's rock and roll band Igor Spectre has played with such acts as
The Adicts, The Black Keys, Agent Orange, Thrill Kill Kult and Gene
Loves Jezebel, and he runs the script coverage and development company
Screenplay Readers. He lives with his wife, 2 cats, and 1 good old dog
in the verdant hills of East Los Angeles.
