We have a real treat in store for today's One-Page Screenplay: TS Faull is the screenwriter of Grimm Love -- an award-winning film based on the events of Germany's hugely notorious consensual cannibalism case, starring Thomas Kretschmann and Felicity herself, Keri Russell. The film was banned in Germany for three years after a judge ruled it infringed upon its real-life cannibal inspiration Armin Meiwes's rights, making Faull something of an indie film outlaw in those parts.
For us, Faull has birthed a minimalist masterpiece that pushes the hybrid subgenre of childbirth and body horror to disturbing new extremes. Ladies and gentlemen: THROAT BABIES.
The Official Bio:
As an HBO-addicted child, TS Faull grew up watching the usual kiddie fare: The Brood, Dressed to Kill, among other age-inappropriate cable material. His psyche permanently scarred - in a good way - by his love of horror, thrillers, cult movies, and Altman, he went on to write the upcoming GRIMM LOVE, starring Keri Russell and Thomas Kretschmann.
Inspired by the notorious Armin Meiwes consensual cannibalism case, GRIMM LOVE won several awards at the prestigious Sitges and PiFan film festivals and was even banned in Germany for three years after Meiwes himself sued the filmmakers.
Faull is currently writing an UNTITLED TEEN SOCIAL NETWORKING THRILLER for Dimension and is looking forward to permanently scarring the psyches of others.
