Matt, a renowned individual, made his entry into the world on September 5th, 1973, in the charming town of Sterling, Illinois. The early years of his life were characterized by a series of unfortunate encounters with local bullies, who would often test the mettle of the young Matt. In response to these challenges, Matt turned to the world of martial arts as a means of self-defense. Under the guidance of skilled instructors, he diligently studied two distinct forms of martial arts, namely Jeet Kune Do and Kenpo. These disciplines would later become integral components of his work in the film industry.

Matt's filmmaking odyssey commenced in 1988, when a camcorder suddenly found its way into his household, setting the stage for a creative journey that would span decades. Initially, he embarked on a series of experimental short films, showcasing his innovative flair and artistic vision. Among these early endeavors was a chilling horror film, "Killseeker", which showcased his ability to craft suspenseful narratives and atmospheric tension. Another notable project was a comedic short inspired by the iconic 3 Stooges, demonstrating his capacity to balance humor and wit. Fast forward to 1996, Matt began working on a more serious and complex short horror film, "Evil On Queen Street", a project that would occupy his attention for a remarkable five years, culminating in its completion in 2001.

Matt's creative endeavors between 1996 and 2001 were marked by a prolific output of scriptwriting, with a notable body of work comprising multiple projects, including a script for the iconic superhero franchise, Spider-man. Specifically, his script, titled "Meteor: The Hidden 3", as well as another, "Eve Of Terror", were the fruits of his labor during this period. Despite submitting his Spider-man script to major movie studios, he was met with complete silence, leaving him without any tangible feedback or response. This lack of engagement ultimately led Matt to reevaluate his strategy, opting not to share his remaining scripts with the studios, thus bringing an end to his efforts in that regard.

Matt seized the opportunity to leverage the vast potential of the internet, utilizing its capabilities to showcase his creative endeavors to a global audience. He wisely decided to upload his work to his personal website, Matt Spease Productions, thereby establishing an online presence that would enable him to reach a broader range of viewers. As a visionary, Matt was keen to capitalize on the emerging trend of online film sales, and thus, his first production for the company was born. This inaugural project was "The Stooges - Episode V: Die, Stooges, Die", a clever and humorous spoof that expertly combined the iconic Star Wars franchise with the classic comedic elements of the 3 Stooges. The film boasted an impressive cast, featuring the talented Pro Wrestler Violet Flame as the Princess, alongside Matt, who impressively demonstrated his versatility by playing multiple roles throughout the production.

Matt, a visionary filmmaker, initially encountered limited success with his cinematic endeavors. Undeterred by this setback, he made a conscious decision to revamp his production company, subsequently renaming it Dark Night Films in the year 2003. This pivotal moment marked the rebirth of his script, "Eve Of Terror", which would eventually be rebranded and released under the title "The Chameleon Killer". The film boasted an impressive cast, with the talented Violet Flame taking center stage.

As "The Chameleon Killer" made its way online, it garnered a massive following, ultimately cementing its status as a fan favorite among enthusiasts of Dark Night Films. The film's enduring popularity serves as a testament to Matt's unwavering dedication to his craft and his ability to create captivating stories that resonate with audiences worldwide.
