Tim Connolly

Tim Connolly, a multi-talented actor, filmmaker, and musician, hails from California, where his passion for cinema ignited at an early age after watching iconic films like Jaws and Halloween. This early fascination set him on a creative journey that has led to a series of compelling projects in the film industry.

Connolly made his directorial debut with The Rental, a homemade slasher that has garnered over 300,000 views on YouTube, showcasing his knack for storytelling. His follow-up project, Mystery Solved, was a playful whodunnit that achieved notable success in 2022, winning several festival accolades including Best Feature Film and Audience Choice at the Queer Fear Film Festival, as well as Best of the Fest at the FANtastic Horror Film Fest.

His latest work, Black Theta, represents a significant evolution in his craft, blending dark humor with slasher elements. This film tells the gripping tale of a young man pursued by a murderous cult, and it premiered in San Diego to an enthusiastic, sold-out audience. With its unique blend of comedy and horror, Black Theta is poised to make waves on the festival circuit in the near future, further solidifying Connolly's reputation as a rising voice in independent cinema.
