Filmmaker Bio
- John Borowski, filmmaker
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- With a fusion of horror, true-crime, and drama, John Borowski has come to deliver chilling films with an impact so awesome that you soon learn “nothing is more frightening than reality,” as he has. Inspired by Hitchcock, Borowski not only lives up to the title “auteur” through his diligent vision, but also through deliberate execution as writer, producer, director, and editor. As a result, his films have been called “holistic works of art,” he has earned awards, and (markedly important to the filmmaker) he has gained a staunch following of true-crime devotees. Against all odds, it’s Borowski’s passion that fuels and sustains his devotion to creating art through film. Borowski’s films, released on DVD by Facets Video, are H.H. Holmes: America’s First Serial Killer (2004) and Albert Fish (2007). Borowski studied filmmaking at Columbia College Chicago where he earned a Bachelor’s degree. A Chicago native, Borowski relocated to Los Angeles for four years. In 2009, Borowski returned to sweet home Chicago where the food and people are more to his liking. Currently in production is his next film, Panzram, which completes his American Killer trilogy.
