Hello!

There are new ORANGE COUNTY HARDCORE SCENSTER shirts available. If you want to order one just send me an email and it will happen. 

My documentary ORANGE COUNTY HARDCORE SCENESTER is available! You can order it here.

Here is a trailer for my documentary ORANGE COUNTY HARDCORE SCENESTER. This film is a unique look at the Orange County, CA punk/hardcore music scene from 1990-1997. You can watch the trailer here.

You can purchase the DVD/Blu-ray of KNOCKOUT. This is the boxing film that I co-wrote and it stars "Stone Cold" Steve Austin. For the best price I would go to BestBuy.com.

Also, you can order ALL of my available films via Amazon.com by clicking here.

Finally, if you want to order a copy of my first young adult novel, MY SUMMER OF HATE, you can do so by clicking this link. If you live in Orange County, CA you can also check it out of the library.


In the Writer’s Corner…

I am well over halfway done with my new book for Saddleback Publishing. The way I pitched it to them was as a punk rock, FAULT IN OUR STARS. I am quite happy with how it is going. I also recently spoke to Saddleback about writing even more books for them. They are truly a blessing in my life. That is why I posted the picture of the ZOMBIES book up top. They just released this title that I wrote about eight months ago for them. I got into writing when I was younger because of horror stories that I would read and S.E. Hinton novels. To be able to create similar stories for Saddleback is nothing short of a dream come true.

About halfway done with my next script, DISTRICT BALL. This semi-autobiographical look at my time “playing” basketball my freshmen year of high school, is the closest thing to an ensemble I have ever written. I think it could do well as I am keeping the action very contained and the cast minimal.

COOL SUMMER, my new film about three middle schoolers suddenly plunged into the world of a man who may or may not be a serial killer, is also about halfway done. My plan is to rewrite it a few times once it is and then record the voices (currently the plan is for it to be animated) in late December. Then, the long slong animating will begin… or at least it should!

Continuing to send INSECT off to distributors. I think something will happen with that film. That is why I am holding off on starting the sequel. There WILL be a sequel however.

The first cut of my new micro-budget film THE BRO DOWN is complete. I am literally about to watch it with the co-star of the movie. There might be a few more trims and then it will be released. I am considering approaching specific distributors (instead of doing it myself) but we will have to see!

Thank you for your time,



Evan Jacobs

In the Writer’s Corner…

Recently started a new book for Saddleback Publishing! It is a love story about a guy and girl from two very different worlds. Again, I am honored that they keep liking my ideas and hiring me to write for them.


MOTHCATCHER AND HALLOWEEN COSTUME is done! You can get it here!

CRASHER is complete and I am currently submitting it to producers.

I have started a new, underdog sports film centered in the world of high school basketball. It is called DISTRICT BALL. It is semi-autobiographical and looks at my time “playing” the sport my freshmen year.

It looks like COOL SUMMER is going to be my next movie. The script is set in 1985. It follows three middle schoolers suddenly plunged into the world of a man who may or may not be a serial killer. The plan is for it to be animated.

Lastly, I am currently sending INSECT to distributors and festivals. I have my fingers crossed that there might be a screening in Amsterdam!

I shot a quick, no-budget buddy comedy called THE BRO DOWN on my birthday. It is a comedic tale of two friends. One thinks that his girlfriend is cheating on him. They go to the person’s house so he can beat down the would be poacher and his best pal can film it. I am currently editing this film. I hope to find a distributor but I have a feeling that, on this one, that person will be me.

Until next time,

Evan Jacobs
