Splat Pack

Collection of filmmakers

The Splat Pack is a group of independent filmmakers who, since 2002, have directed, written and produced horror films which are notable for their low budgets and extreme violence.[1]

History

The term was coined by Alan Jones of Total Film.[2][3] The group has been credited with bringing back ultra-violent movies, moving away from PG-13 rated movies and into the R-rated spectrum, all while operating with low budgets.[1] The members have met opposition from the MPAA board over the content of their work, but nevertheless continue to find box-office success.[2]

Film

In 2010, a documentary film on the Splat Pack was made featuring interviews with members Alexandre Aja, Adam Green, Eli Roth, Darren Lynn Bousman, Neil Marshall, and Greg McLean.[4][5]
