David Decoteau
David DeCoteau (born
January 5 1962) is an
American film director and
producer known for directing low budget homoerotic horror movies, such as
Brotherhood and
Voodoo Academy, that have attracted a cult following.
Born in
Portland,
Oregon, and a dual citizen of
Canada and the
USA, David DeCoteau began working professionally in the movie when he was 18 years old. He got his start through a generous offer from film legend
Roger Corman who hired him in
1980 as a production assistant at
New World Pictures. In
1986, DeCoteau directed and produced his first feature film for another generous film legend,
Charles Band. He has since branched out into motion picture distribution and executive producing for other filmmakers. After 20 years in
Hollywood, DeCoteau now resides in both Canada and the United Kingdom where he continues to make his movies and assists others in making theirs.
After directing "T & A" (Tits and Ass) softcore horror flicks for Full Moon Pictures, DeCoteau now directs homo-erotic horror films with his own production company
Rapid Heart Pictures. DeCoteau's recent DTV films include
The Brotherhood (and its prolific sequels), the infamous homoerotic epic
Voodoo Academy and
Leeches! DeCoteau films are increasingly notorious for placing the male as the erotic object in peril, surmounting to young teen fraternity jock being chased about the screen by varying monster icons in their boxer briefs.
DeCoteau is now branching out to produce and direct a return to his previous form in his recent films
The Sisterhood and
Witches of the Caribbean.
