Theo Lemasters
- Writer

- Director
Theo Lemasters is a middle aged, suburbanite, family man who writes movies in the back of the Volkswagen Bus in his driveway, or in the master bathroom that he has converted into an office a few steps from his bed.
Most of what Theo has written will never be made, due to him being mostly uninterested in networking, and his general lack of sparkle. This is a mistake that future generations will look at with heavy hearts and bitter eyes, with blame falling on those in the system who didn't see what was in front of them when, briefly, exposed to him.
With nearly thirty finished scripts under his belt, Theo has proven himself to be a proficient and reliable screenwriter, working across all genres, as needed.
Theo's first professional work was developing a slate of scripts for father-son producers, Paul and Sasha Maslansky, which included a reboot of Paul Maslansky's Police Academy franchise; a remake of Circle Of Iron, based on the Bruce Lee penned story The Silent Flute; an adaptation of Michael Ondaatje's Coming Through Slaughter; and a re-imagining of the 80's horror film Critters.
Theo has served as a "script doctor" "punch up writer" for studio level writers and producers, and has developed projects ranging from romantic comedies and children's films, to action-comedy, fantasy, and dark horror.
Theo is the Lead Creative Producer for Arkham House Entertainment, where he oversees AHE's slate of horror, and is a driving force in helping to properly bring the stories of H.P. Lovecraft to modern generations. AHE is producer George Paige's official film and television production company in partnership with Arkham House Publishing, the original publishers of H.P. Lovecraft's work.
Theo has ten specific films, three limited series, three 12 issue comic book runs (2 Marvel, 1 DC), and several novellas, that he hopes to create and call a career before his meat rots into the ground.
