Henry Darrow McComas is a Writer/Director from Anchorage, Alaska, with a passion for discovering beauty in the overlooked. This theme is a rich part of Wolfman’s Got Nards: A Documentary, an award-winning horror documentary - which he produced, wrote, shot and edited - that celebrates the beloved cult film ‘The Monster Squad’ and its dedicated following. It quickly became a festival darling, introducing McComas to the LA horror community, and continues to gain fans and critical acclaim worldwide. 

McComas’ scripts use genre as a tool to explore personal human relationships. He puts his characters in dangerous settings like the unforgiving North American frontier and haunts them with metaphor…something he picked up from his youth chasing daylight during frigid Arctic winters. McComas conjures horror out of his real life experiences. His first studio narrative feature film, THE CAMP HOST, was inspired by a van trip he took with his wife during the global pandemic. He wrote the script in the van; drove the van to Toronto to shoot the movie; and worked with his editor remotely from the van. His productions have taken him all over the world (including Antarctica) and he swears his next project will be based somewhere tropical. He’s a multi-hyphenate filmmaker who has created for some of the industry’s biggest studios and networks.

His work includes writing, directing, producing, shooting and editing feature films, writing and directing scripted series for digital platforms and television and writing and directing numerous award winning documentaries and short films.

Among the many happy clients, partners and employers McComas has worked with are: Netflix, LionsgateDisney, Marvel, National Geographic, Legendary Entertainment, FOX, Tubi, MarVista EntertainmentNeshama Entertainment, NerdistThe Pokémon Company International,  Comic Con HQ, Alpha, Vinegar SyndromeArrow Films, and Pilgrim Media Group.

McComas currently resides in sunny Los Angeles where he writes, directs, and produces narrative features and television but always keeps one foot in the snow.
