About Me

JONATHAN LOUIS LEWIS (director) Jonathan Louis Lewis born January 27th 1984 has always been involved in the creative arts. Lewis has written many shorts and screenplays throughout his life. Jonathan first came onto the filmmaking scene in 2003 with his numerous shorts and series of successful montages including: “Time to Go”, “Lost Little Girl”, “The Big Chase”, and “The Monster”. Throughout the year Lewis continued to write, direct and produce his own films. He stayed busy while working as a videographer and filming various public and private ceremonies and events. In the fall of 2004 Jonathan Lewis along with two college friends, Anthony Montez and Frank Sarinara gave birth to The Black Sunday Film Club. Holding shows every Sunday night, The Black Sunday Film Club hit over night success immediately. Within no time the film club became the number one event on the entire Menlo College Campus. The Black Sunday Film Club was unstoppable and becoming larger with each passing week. Along with running the film club, Jonathan was in the genesis of writing his first feature film. During the winter weeks of 2004, Jonathan wrote the screenplay for his first feature film called, “Campus Terror: A Montage of Murder”. The film began production in spring 2004 and was a rocky project. The film was a struggle due to the lead actress quitting, but everyone eventually got back on track and completed “Campus Terror”. The film was a disappointment to Lewis as it didn’t turn out the way he envisioned it. The film is said to be a bittersweet success for Lewis, though the vision was off, the film was created, well crafted a good learning experience. In spring of 2005 Jonathan took on a new endeavor. With the success of the film club Lewis decided to take the famous club to a new level. Lewis began organizing and planning the Black Sunday Film Festival. The festival took months and months of planning and at the end was a wonderful event. The Black Sunday Film Club had reached an all new high. The club screened around 8 big name films right on the Menlo College Campus. The big finale included a screening of Rob Zombie’s film “House of 1000 Corpses”. The festival also had special appearances from guest speakers of the stars “House of 1000 Corpses”. The film festival brought the Black Sunday name to the forefront. This got him excited and motivated to continue making films. Next on Lewis’ list was a ten minute short called, “The Dream Audition” starring Adam Montez the lead guitarist from NothingLeft. Around the same time Menlo College awarded and recognized Jonathan for his accomplishments with being the President of Black Sunday Film Club and for service to the Menlo College Community in 2005-2006 Academic Year. This set the wheels in motion for his next film accomplishment. “The Telephone” started in the spring of 2006. It was a great success and showed Lewis that he could make a very good well crafted movie. The film got into the New York Film & Video Festival in Los Angeles. It also appeared at the Hollywood HD/DV Film Festival and won best picture at the Menlo College Oakies Awards in 2007. Jonathan then began working on the film that has changed his life! Working on a feature film with his brother was the next step. In 2007 Black Devil Doll was born. It instantly has become a cult classic! It is still in post production and scheduled to be released in 2009. After shooting Black Devil Doll Jonathan continues to push the envelope in terms of his success. His latest project in post production is a modern Giallo-like film. Its called Darkness of the Night. It is expected to be released in 2009 as well as Black Devil Doll. He is now in pre production of another film called Mister Video. It's set to be released in the summer of 2009.THE COMPOSER DOCION- COMPOSED THE TELEPHONE SCORE SAYS: In the original score for "The Telephone"... The keen listener should notice some nods to a variety of composers I have admired from the last 4 decades of Italian cinema including Morricone, Ortolani, Goblin/Simonetti, and Blonksteiner. Jon's pic is a warm tribute to not only Bava, but the whole of this type of cinema. I hope my contribution shares that quality. Thanks, Louis Lewis. -DocionTHE TELEPHONE MOVIE TRAILER! .. ..
