Sergio Guerra

Sergio Guerra's fondness for suspense and the unsettling formed at an early age, the end result of too many impressionable "Twilight Zone" marathons. A San Francisco native, the award-winning Latinx writer/director started making movies in high school using old family cameras, developing a particular affinity for the eerie graininess of Super 8. He honed his craft while attending New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. His work includes the original horror pilot "Creature Comfort," a winner in the ATX-Blacklist Script Competition; "Murder Ballad," a Southern Gothic horror short that had its world premiere at the Brussels International Fantastic Film Festival and its LA premiere at Screamfest; "Shattered," winner of Best Horror at the Hollywood Blood Horror Festival; and "Home Invasion," an Official Selection in the Fantaspoa at Home contest.
