Paul Busetti

New York, New York, United States

<p><span class="style32"><span class="style32">Paul Busetti was born in Alexandria, Virginia in 1982. After graduating high school, he decided against film school and instead went to work for minimum wage at a local independent video store. Inspired by the new breed of movie geeks turned directors raised by the VCR, he spent the next six years sharpening his encyclopedic cinematic knowledge and arguing about movies with anyone who would linger in the store long enough. He wrote, directed, and edited his first short <em>The Clockmaker</em> when he was 21. He followed that up with <em>Gone the Way of the Buffalo</em> and <em>Antidote Seven</em>. The combined budget of all three films was under $1000. In 2007, he completed an exhaustive 13 months of editing <em>How Did You Lose Your Soul Sweetheart</em>, which he also produced and photographed. Later that year he wrote &amp; directed the horror film <em>Cannibal Cheerleader Camp</em> which was an official selection of the Virginia Independent Film Festival and was released on the underground horror compilation <em>Cult Vol 1</em>. in 2008, he also co-wrote/directed the satirical short <em>Abraham Lincoln: The Motion Picture</em> with Ten Sundays co-founder Ian Albetski and together they produced the feature comedy <em>Boxing Day</em>, which has been playing at film festivals around the country since its release. In 2010, He was a producer on the dramatic feature <em>Conquering the Rose </em>and the Coney Island Film Festival selection <em>Utopia Lies at the Horizon. </em>His major influences are Scorsese, Polanski, Kubrick, Godard, Dario Argento, John Caprenter, &amp; David Cronenberg. He is the author of several soon to be produced screenplays including <em>Rum on an Empty Stomach</em>, <em>Dysphonia</em>, and <em>Panacea </em>and is currently in production on the feature horror film <em>Veil</em>. He lives in Manhattan, Kansas with his beautiful doctor wife and two bunny rabbits, Warble &amp; Bunny Lebowski. </span></span></p>
