Ethan Samuel Dunlap is an American independent filmmaker. Born and raised in the South Shore of Massachusetts, Dunlap cut his teeth as a teenager making shorts and no-budget television series while working at SCTV, his hometown's public access TV channel. His first attempt at feature filmmaking was at age 15, when he directed 2011's THOSE GUYS IN THE HALL -- a 60 minute Clerks homage set in his high school. It was only screened for close friends.
