Jamie Nash
Screenwriter/Filmmaker/Author
Jamie Nash optioned his first screenplay in 2004 to Haxan Films - a script which would then turn into his first produced film, the horror-feature known as Altered (which celebrates its 20th Anniversary here in 2026). It also started a decade-long collaboration with Eduardo Sanchez, co-director of famed found-footage flick The Blair Witch Project.
Since then, Jamie has gone on to write and help produce several more horror films, ones about bigfoot, aliens, zombies, demons and clownpires (a vampire clown… it’s a thing.)
His horror credits include Exists, V/H/S/2, Lovely Molly, Seventh Moon and The Night Watchmen. He also directed Last Night at Terrace Lanes and the Fun With Furklee segment for the anthology film A Comedy of Horrors and the web series Paraabnormal. He is also a producer on the horror anthology feature, Satanic Hispanics.
Overall, Jamie has worked with some of the top fright masters in the business, including Blumhouse Entertainment, Rogue Pictures, Sam Raimi's Ghost House Pictures as well as Lionsgate.
With that said, however, horror isn’t Jamie’s only genre. He's made a career penning Family fare as well.
Jamie grew up in the 80’s and gorged on classic films like ET, Goonies and Back to the Future. He likes to craft similar stories. Films that blend comedy with adventure & fantasy, which can entertain the whole family. Examples of such stories can be found with Santa Hunters and for Tiny Christmas, two Nickelodeon films that he wrote and co-wrote respectively. A few years before that, he wrote Adventures of a Teenage Dragon Slayer, with Lea Thompson and Wendie Malick. Two more family movies of his -- The Detourist and For Sale By Superhero -- were optioned and developed by Amazon Studios. He's also the writer of the 2025 animated film: MISSION SANTA: YoYo to the Rescue..
When Jamie’s not busy writing spec screenplays and TV pilots, he works as a screenwriting consultant. He wrote the bestselling book Save The Cat! Writes for TV, The Save The Cat! Beat Sheet Workbook, Save The Cat! Writes Horror.
