Cory McAbee

An eccentric voice in independent cinema, Cory McAbee was born in 1961, in Northern California, USA, and has been actively making films since the late 1990s. McAbee's genre-bending works often blend elements of science fiction, western, and musical, with his most acclaimed films being "The American Astronaut" and "Stingray Sam". Despite not being a usual suspect at major film festivals, he has built a cult following due to his distinctive authorial style marked by offbeat humor, stylized visuals, and unconventional storytelling. McAbee is a true maverick of indie filmmaking, always daring to push the envelope and invite his audience into his uniquely imaginative universe.
