Louis Morneau is an American film director and scenarist.

Life

Morneau has been described as a "graduate of the Roger Corman school".[1]

He is the director of various B/cult films,[2][3][4] including what Dread Central calls ’the notoriously terrible’[5] Bats, in 1999, a film, however, praised by Mark F. Berry in his book about dinosaur films, in which this author considers that Bats is a ’handsome and misunderstood fifties-monster homage’’, explaining Morneau's personal style by his former career as film editor.[6]

Morneau is also known for Carnosaur 2[7] and Made Men, in 1998, the second film he made with James Belushi in the cast, after Retroactive the year before.[8]

Personal life

Morneau was the long-time partner of the actress Catherine Cyran.[9]
