About Nina Romain
Nina Romain is living proof that small children shouldn't be taken trick-or-treating in Alabama in the 1980s – as they tend to end up obsessed with the creepier side of Halloween! Her horror shorts tend to be shot half in the seedier side of Los Angeles and half in the darker side of the UK. Currently finishing off her latest LA found footage short about a romantic Valentine’s Day that goes horrifically wrong, she hopes to shoot a UK short completely underground later this year. You can find her on IMDB.
