Mark Polonia, 51, has been making low-budget horror movies consistently for 30-plus years.
STONY FORK, Pa. — Everything about Mark Polonia screams “everyday nice guy," except that he’s planning to decapitate two people with a rusty scythe once he finishes his root beer.
“We’ve never really gotten hassled, but occasionally cops will drive by and slow down and see it’s us and just move along,” Polonia says. “We did make the mistake of leaving a severed head by the side of the road once.” Polonia made nearly all of his movies with his identical twin brother, John, and they made a name for themselves as the Polonia Brothers in the niche world of cheap horror. John died suddenly, in 2008, after a flu spiraled out of control. The latest film,“We were basically the same person," Polonia says of his late brother. “... We had the same bad taste.”“I mean, they never told us we couldn’t do it,” he says. “And we were doing some weird stuff, like blowing up heads in the backyard.
“I guess if you break it into the most simplistic form, you have to ask the question ‘Were you entertained?’ And if it’s yes, we won,” Polonia says.
