Joe Lujan is an American film producer, screenwriter and film director. He is widely known for directing the sci-fi film The Immortal Wars (2017). Lujan has also directed Rust (2015) & Atelophobia (2015).
Born and raised in El Paso, Texas, Lujan and his 3 siblings were raised by his parents Joe and Norma Lujan. Film was not Lujan's first career goal. His fascination with animals led him to pursue a career as a veterinarian, but with the inspiration of horror films such as Scream (1996), I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) and Wrong Turn (2003), his interests began to shift.
In 2002, his older sister took him and his younger brother out of school to watch a film they had all been waiting for. At the end of the film, as the roll credits began, Lujan made his decision "that's what I'm going to do".
The title of the film was Resident Evil (2002). He then grew up performing in his own short films along with his siblings and relatives. He graduated from Montwood High School in 2007. Lujan landed a set of jobs producing and directing commercials for local businesses.
Before his success in the sci-fi/action genre, he focused mainly on horror. In 2014, his film Rust (2015) began as a short film. With no budget, he used his friends for the cast and shot the entire film in one day.
Lujan screened the film at a number of film festivals and received overwhelming compliments and requests to see more of the menacing character of "Travis McLennan". Lujan then wrote and directed the feature film followed by its sequel Rust 2 (2016) which won "Best Horror Feature Honorable Mention" at the Upstate NY Horror Film Festival in 2017.
Prior to 2013, Lujan had begun writing a script for a horror film, citing the fears of being imperfect and the experiences of events that took place when he was in high school. Upon completing the script, Lujan wanted to express his artistic vision through every element of the film.
He then designed the sets, props and costumes. He also went on to create a set of artistic fashionable promotional trailers winning him awards for "Best Costumes", "Best Trailer" and "Best Horror Feature".
The film soon received wide exposure from the media. In 2015, a live action experience based on the film opened its doors in Las Vegas and has been labeled "Best Horror Escape Room in Nevada". Lujan continued on with a sequel and begins production on the third installment in 2018, completing the trilogy.
This film is known as Atelophobia (2015).In 2015, Lujan began writing an adaptation of an online comic book series he created back in 2009. This adaption was a sci-fi/action tale of fictional characters, introducing a shared universe of all his feature films.
He introduced "Trikalypse", a character that led the story of the film entitled The Immortal Wars (2017). Production for the sequel entitled The Immortal Wars: Resurgence (2019) was completed in late 2017.
The third and final installment begins production in late 2018. The story has spread into a mini-series called The Dawning (2017) and a published comic books series "The Vanquishers".
