Biography

Drew McWeeny (born May 26, 1970), also known by the pseudonym Moriarty, is a film critic, screenwriter, and former west coast editor of the Ain't It Cool News website. In December 2008, McWeeny announced in a review of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button that he would be leaving Ain't It Cool News to join HitFix.com.

He attended Florida State University but did not graduate, choosing instead to pursue a career in entertainment in Los Angeles. He has two sons: Toshiro Lucas McWeeny, born in 2005, and Allen Miles McWeeny, born in 2008.

McWeeny was involved in controversy in 1999 when a screenplay he co-wrote received a positive review from Harry Knowles on Ain't It Cool News. Knowles did not reveal that McWeeny was a regular contributor to the site under the name Moriarty. Film Threat magazine later accused Knowles of lacking journalistic integrity. At that time, McWeeny was employed as a closed caption editor at VITAC.

Together with partner Scott Swan, McWeeny has become a television writer, contributing two episodes to the Masters of Horror series, both directed by John Carpenter. The duo also co-wrote the episode "Skin and Bones" for NBC's horror/suspense anthology series Fear Itself. In May 2008, it was announced that "Bat Out of Hell," a film written by McWeeny and Swan, would be directed by Joe Dante. McWeeny continues his work as a film critic, although he has been banned from Twentieth Century Fox press screenings.
