Alexis Chandon (born 3 November 1968 in North London) is a film director, writer and digital artist.[1]
Biography
Directing career
His early films, Drillbit and Bad Karma, featured many musicians from the UK anarcho punk scene, notably Ben Bethell, Dan MacCintyre, William 'Bill' Corbett and Julian Portinari from The Apostles and Pallor, respectively.[2]
Cradle of Fear
His highest-profile release to date is Cradle of Fear,[3] starring Dani Filth in a leading role, and other members of Cradle of Filth in cameo appearances.[4]
Borderline
Chandon was once known primarily for specialising in straight-to-video micro-budget horror films, but his latest projects, especially Borderline (2006), featuring music by The Dark Poets, show a more mature side to his work.[5] Borderline has now been chosen for the British Film Institute's National Archive.[6]
Inbred
Chandon will direct the £1,000,000 project Inbred,[7] which will shoot in July 2010 in the market town of Thirsk.[8] The script for the Black comedy horror film was co-written by Paul Shrimpton.[9]
Music videos
Chandon's relationship with Cradle of Filth has also produced music videos for the songs "From the Cradle to Enslave", "No Time to Cry" and "Her Ghost in the Fog", as well as documentaries on their DVDs PanDaemonAeon and Heavy, Left-handed and Candid.[10]
