Ohio native Ryan Katzenbach began working for his local newspaper
as a freelance writer at 15 years old. His editors assigned
him to a number of tasks, ranging from politics to the local
theater and entertainment scene. After moving to California
two years later, Ryan began leaning into the production and
pre-press side of newspapers, eventually learning every facet of
web and offset printing. In 1993, he founded his own
advertising and graphic design firm, Kat Advertising. Amityville
author Ric Osuna, he entered into a development deal with Sony
Pictures Television for an adaptation of Osuna's "The Night The
DeFeo's Died: Reinvestigating The Amityville Murders."
In January 2006, Katzenbach began shooting "Shattered Hopes: The
True Story of the Amityville Murders" as a completely independent
venture. The documentary, using Osuna's book as the baseline,
began shooting interviews and reenactments. What was intended
to be a project taking only a few years from beginning to end
morphed into an 8-year quest for the answers behind the infamous
Amityville case. The last installment was largely delayed due
to talks with Ronald "Butch" DeFeo who ultimately agreed to an
interview for the film. The documentary project attracted the
attention of the Reelz Channel in the summer of 2014.
On October 25th, 2014, the Reelz Channel will debut this
adaptation, "High Hopes: The Amityville Horror Murders" as part of
their Halloween movie line-up. The Shattered trilogy and the Reelz
narrated by Emmy & Golden Globe winning actor Edward
Asner. Katzenbach, at present, is working on a
documentary about the murder of slain Hollywood PR maven Ronni
Chasen. Katzenbach also has a feature film in
development.
