Tom Jolliffe(I)

Tom Jolliffe is a screenwriter, producer and film journalist, known for Renegades (2021), The Witches of Amityville (2020), Winter Hill (2018) and The Dark Recess (2019). He grew up in Marlow, England with a passion for cinema that began in the video store aisles. After studying film at university he focused more on writing film reviews including some guest reviews for publications like Aint it Cool and Moviehole, before becoming a regular contributor (and still remains so) for popular UK film site, Flickering Myth.

With an interest in screenwriting, he began focusing increasingly on trying to get scripts made, coming close to selling a number of shorts and features (which fell at the final hurdle). He then took to producing to take more control over the outcome, and co-produced Out (2015) an award winning short film starring Shone Romulus (Top Boy) and Joerg Stadler (Saving Private Ryan).

After successfully following up with a number of award winning short films, he transitioned to features writing Scarecrows Revenge, Cyber Bride, and Return of The Tooth Fairy for Champdog films, which have all been released worldwide on DVD and VOD. This year also saw the release of Witches of Amityville, which Jolliffe wrote for Proportion Productions. He has two more due out with the company, Jurassic Island and Reign of Chaos.

In 2020 he also signed on to write a number of action films for Shogun films, beginning with the star studded revenge film, Renegades (2021), starring Lee Majors, Danny Trejo, Michael Pare, Tiny Lister, Billy Murray and Ian Ogilvy. After a non-stop run of features from 2018-2020, a busy year beckons in 2021, including a number of features in development and a few projects he will be producing too.
