Chris Churilla

Originally from the south suburbs of Chicago, Chris Churilla began his love affair with movies when he auditioned for the part of movie critic for his high school newspaper- and nailed it. 

His life has taken him down many unexpected paths, the biggest of which was seventeen years of combined military service, but his love of movies has remained constant. His favorite movies are:

The Shawshank Redemption (1994)- “Life-affirming”

Tremors (1990)- “Funny”

While his most hated movies are:

James Cameron’s Avatar (2009)- “WORST. MOVIE. EVER.”

Jurassic Park: Fallen Kingdom (2018)- “Mind-bogglingly stupid!”

When he’s not sitting in a dark room watching other people and judging them, he likes to bake. He has two pets: an alcoholic rattlesnake named Bobbi and a vegetarian shark named Bruce Finley, who’s claim to fame is that he was an extra in the original Sharknado. He now lives in Colorado with his best friend, whom he met in the Army.
