Dustin Ferguson

Ferguson originally wanted to open up his own video rental shop, but by the time he graduated from college this had become a thing of the past and was no longer a viable business option. He decided to become a filmmaker instead (although he did briefly open a Video Store in 2017). He started making short films in his father's backyard, inspired by horror filmmakers from the 1970s and 1980s like Wes Craven and Tobe Hooper. His first theatrical release was Terror at Black Tree Forest. He continued to make films, releasing as many as sixteen in one year. His films focus on long takes and suspenseful editing and he tries to avoid complicated special effects. Focusing almost exclusively on low-budget horror films, he has been compared to the early pioneers of the genre such as Roger Corman and he was dubbed Roger Corman's sequel by the website Horror News. Ferguson's film, The Amityville Legacy, ranked #11 of 1428 Elm's the 15 greatest Amityville movies of all-time. He has directed Brinke Stevens in over 20 films, including: Die Sister, Die! (2013), House of Pain (2018), Horndogs Beach Party (2018), and RoboWoman (2019). His film, Die Sister, Die! (2013) ranked #10 of Gruemonkey's Top 10 best Brinke Stevens films out of over 188 of her films. ==Filmography==
