Pindrop Entertainment

The studio

An independent studio built by two writers.

Pindrop Entertainment is a small company in Rochester, New York making narrative work across film, video, books, audio, and experiments — with a catalog that reaches back well before the current tools existed.

Pindrop began the way most independent companies do: two people who kept finishing things. Eugene Mont was making short films through the 2010s. Thomas Muller was publishing horror novels and story collections. Together they wrote screenplays — roughly twenty-five of them — and built a body of work that had nowhere obvious to go.

The company is the answer to that problem. Books come out under Muller’s name. Scripts get written in partnership. Stories that earn it get produced — as trailers, shorts, series, albums, or episodes of the studio’s own podcast — and the format is chosen to fit the story rather than the other way around.

Since 2025 that output has accelerated sharply, because AI-assisted production removed the gap between a finished script and a watchable scene. What did not change is who decides: every project on this site is written, directed, and cut by its credited creators.

The founders

Two writers, one company.

Eugene Mont

Eugene Mont

Co-Founder · Writer, Director, Producer

Eugene Mont co-founded Pindrop Entertainment and works across film, video, and experimental formats as a writer-director-producer. He is credited on independent films including Double or Nothing (2017) and the Curse of Ball Hall shorts, and he has driven much of the company’s recent output — UNWANTED, Echoes, and The Brutalizer among them.

He is a Runway Student Ambassador and a researcher working with emerging creative tools, and has studied at the Warner School of Education at the University of Rochester. He has been Thomas Muller’s screenwriting partner for years; between them the pair have written roughly 25 scripts.

Thomas Muller

Thomas Muller

Co-Founder · Author & Writer

Thomas Muller co-founded Pindrop Entertainment and wrote its published book catalog — ten titles spanning horror, thrillers, and short fiction. His stories power several of the company’s page-to-screen projects, including the anthology trailer The Prophecy of Nightmares and the book trailers for Indestructible and The Kelleher.

His writing began with a fifteen-page story written as a teenager and grew, by way of The Twilight Zone and Night Gallery, into a full catalog. He has also produced independent films including Double Cross (2014), Knightmare (2016), and A Walk in the Woods (2017). He lives in upstate New York with his wife.

How the work gets made

Written first. Directed by hand.

01

Written first

Everything starts on the page — eight published books, roughly 25 screenplays between the founders, and a catalog of short fiction they keep returning to.

02

Adapted deliberately

A story earns a screen treatment when it is ready. Muller’s collections become concept trailers and pitches; the trailer is the argument, not the marketing.

03

Produced fast, directed by hand

AI-assisted production compresses the gap between script and screen. The writers and directors keep every final decision — casting of tone, cut, and meaning.

Artificial intelligence tools may have assisted in the development or production of selected Pindrop Entertainment projects. All creative works, concepts, characters, stories, and final editorial decisions remain under the ownership and direction of their respective creators and Pindrop Entertainment.
