J. D. Dillard

While J. D. Dillard has not yet won major industry awards, his early work has been recognized for its craft and resourcefulness. Sleight earned him a spot on Variety's 10 Directors to Watch list in 2016, and his films have consistently premiered at Sundance. His ability to produce compelling genre cinema on modest budgets has drawn comparisons to early work by directors like David F. Sandberg.
