Anne Welles

Award-winning director, producer & writer

Anne produces films for audiences who want to laugh at the ways in which we humans manage the adventure of surviving life — for those looking to bond through feelings of love, loss, surprise, and fear.

A lover of satirical humor and ridiculous comedies, Anne is a glass-half-full, type-A filmmaker. Her work spans horror features, retro rom-coms, music videos, and action-adventure — always with sharp wit and high production values.

Experiencing life is the adventure

Anne WellesDirector · LFP

Anne's films are built on a simple premise: people are funny, terrifying, and deeply lovable — often all at once. From the zombie rom-com of Accidental Zombie to the feminist horror of Hannah Goes to Hell, every project starts with a character who is just trying to get through the day.

Her productions are known for their ensemble casts, practical effects, and a refusal to take themselves too seriously — even when the stakes are life and death.
