==Biography==
===Early life===
Dunstan spent his formative years working in movie theaters and studying film at the [[University of Iowa]]. 

===Movie career===
While in college Dunstan experimented with [[16mm film]] often using himself as the guinea pig in poorly executed [[stunts]] that left him dragging behind a car, the target of flying knives, and thrice being set on fire. He holds the record for spilling the most fake blood ever in a student film.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.demonfm.co.uk/?q=node/536|title=Marcus Dunstan - Interview by Matt Horn|publisher=[[Demon FM]]|date=10/11/2009}}</ref> Since moving to [[Los Angeles]] in 1999, Dunstan toiled in several odd jobs including a retirement home, an [[Optometry]] clinic, and a video store while spending his nights writing on a borrowed computer from fellow [[screenwriter]], [[Patrick Melton]].

In March, 2005, Dunstan and Melton won Season Three of [[Project Greenlight]] with their screenplay, ''[[Feast (film)|Feast]].'' The director was [[John Gulager]]. The film stars [[Krista Allen]] and [[Eric Dane]] and was produced by [[Dimension Films]] and [[Neo Art & Logic]].<ref>[http://www.bloody-disgusting.com/news/20032 'The Collector' Writing/Directing Team Spill Details on Forthcoming Projects!]</ref>
