Hollywood-sleaze auteur Jared Masters is an LA based, low budget filmmaker, creating an array of women-centric features inspired by VHS slashers and 60’s B-movies. His films represent a modern take on genre films, and have John Waters/Kuchar Brothers humor to them. Jared refers to himself as a modern cult filmmaker, occasionally starring in the films he makes. The three films selected are an introduction to his filmography, highlighting his taste for camp and self-aware humor, backed by a clear love for cinema. Masters works align with the Spectacle vision to highlight underrated, seldom-viewed filmmakers and late-night summer indies.
