Steve Niles is coming to the Twisted Tails Film Festival


Steve Niles is a writer. He writes comics, novels and films.

Best known for works such as 30 Days of NightCriminal MacabreSimon DarkMystery Society and Batman: Gotham County Line, he is credited among other contemporary writers as bringing horror comics back to prominence.

Niles is currently working for four of the top American comic publishers – IDW, DC, Image and Dark Horse. Everyone’s favorite monster hunter Cal McDonald continues in theCriminal Macabre series from Dark Horse, as well as in stories currently being published by Steve’s own Bloody Pulp Books.

The success of 30 Days of Night sparked renewed interest in the horror genre; Steve’s comic was released as a major motion picture in 2007 with Spider Man’s Sam Raimi producing, David Slade directing and Niles co-writing the screenplay. Other comics he has written that have been optioned for film include Criminal Macabre and Aleister Arcane, as well as Wake the Dead, with Jay Russell in the director’s chair.

To learn more about him and see what else he has in the works be sure to check out Steve’s official website and visit his store while you are there.



Twisted Tails Film Festival (TTFF) was born from our love of independent horror films and a devotion to homeless animals. We had hoped that by combining those two passions, we would be able to help bring some much needed attention to both.  Having started in December 2011 as an annual festival with only one film, our venue is growing and we welcome you to join!

There is still time to submit your film. You can find submission information at:
