Mark Polonia

Biography:

Mark Polonia is a zero budget filmmaker, following a similar path to B-Movie icon Roger Corman. Originally, Mark made films with his brother John Polonia (as the Polonia brothers) before John’s untimely death in 2008 at 39. Despite this, Mark has continued to work in film, happily making bottom of the barrel films such as ‘Cocaine Shark’ and cementing, in his own way, a legacy in the film industry.
