ZACH
CREGGER

Zach Cregger is an American actor, comedian, writer and director whose work has moved from sketch comedy into horror filmmaking. He was part of the comedy group The Whitest Kids U’ Know before becoming known to a wider film audience as a writer-director.

Barbarian, released in 2022, uses changing expectations and shifts in perspective to build suspense. Cregger has described the early idea as emerging from a writing exercise, an example of how an ordinary starting point can grow into a disturbing story.

In Weapons he returned to horror with a mystery about children who disappear from a community. The film follows the effects of that event through multiple characters, combining dread with moments of dark humor.

Cregger also directed and co-wrote the 2026 Resident Evil adaptation, in which he has a voice credit. Film links below show the titles available in the FLM.RED database and do not represent his full filmography.
