Darren Oakland's picture
New York City, United States
Hi there! I'm a screenwriter working in the spaces of drama, thriller, and horror. Specifically, I strive to create something unique by blending the three genres in unexpected ways - if I'm doing my job right, my scripts will play movies in your head that aren't quite like anything you've seen before, painting a gripping vision of a specific tone and atmosphere that's hard to pin down.

My works tend to explore complex psychological themes, and I love melding more grounded character drama with the surreal, ethereal, or otherwise otherworldly. They also tend toward some degree of social commentary - attempting to capture what it feels like to live now, under this particular stage of capitalism, in this particular stretch of American history. Sometimes this is central to the text, other times it lingers in the background as subtext.

Mixing the real, the unreal, the personal, and the political is central to my particular voice as a writer. Looking forward to connecting with like-minded people here!
