Mickey Keating

Mickey Keating is a writer/producer/director, who made his directorial debut with the Texas-set cultist genre pic RITUAL, which was released by Lionsgate and After Dark Films in January 2014. In February of the same year, he shot POD, a paranoid creature feature set within a snowy cabin in the furthest regions of Maine. POD premiered at SXSW 2015, where it was acquired by Vertical Entertainment for a theatrical release in the US. In late 2014, he shot his third feature, DARLING, a black-and-white descent into hallucinatory madness, which was produced by Larry Fessenden's acclaimed genre-outfit, Glass Eye Pix. Keating has recently wrapped his fourth feature as a writer/director, a 1970's desert-survival horror titled CARNAGE PARK. The film stars The Last Exorcism's Ashley Bell, Pat Healy, Alan Ruck, Fessenden, and Darby Stanchfield. He is based out of LA, and repped by CAA and Circle of Confusion.
