Jerome Sable is a film director, screenwriter, and composer of genre cinema, most known for his work in horror musical comedy.His directorial debut short film was "The Legend of Beaver Dam," a horror musical comedy which opened Midnight Madness at the Toronto International Film Festival and went on to screen at over 75 film festivals worldwide, winning 17 awards, including "Best Short Film" at Sitges, Fantastic Fest, Dallas, Screamfest LA and receiving an honorable mention at Sundance.Sable followed up with the feature film, "Stage Fright," about a musical theatre camp terrorized by a slasher who hates musicals, starring musical theatre veterans Meat Loaf and Minnie Driver. It premiered at the South By Southwest Film Festival to critical acclaim and enthusiastic audience response, and went on to be distributed by Magnolia Pictures in the U.S. as well as over a dozen other territories worldwide.Most recently, Sable directed "V is for Vacation," a first-person horror short he wrote with Nicholas Musurca for the anthology film, "The ABCs of Death 2." "Vacation" is a departure from Sable's previous work, avoiding elements of music and comedy. IGN Entertainment described the piece as "a gripping and beautifully shot shocker" and Film Freak Central wrote, "nasty, dark, and representative proof that POV horror is alive and well and innovative as hell."Sable grew up in Montreal, Quebec where he studied piano and music theory at the McGill Conservatory of Music, and hockey at the Montreal Forum. He has a B.A. in philosophy from Brown University and an MFA in directing from the USC School of Cinematic Arts. Show less «
