Scott Spiegel (born December 24, 1957) is an American screenwriter, film director and producer. He is best known for co-writing the screenplay for the movie, Evil Dead II with longtime friend, film director Sam Raimi, with whom he attended high school in Detroit, Michigan. Spiegel played the role of Scotty in Raimi's Within the Woods, which served as a precurser to The Evil Dead.
When Spiegel first moved to Los Angeles, he shared a house in with directors Raimi and Joel Coen, producer Ethan Coen and actresses Holly Hunter, Frances McDormand and Kathy Bates. He shared yet another house with roommate and film editor, Bob Murawski (Spider-Man). In the early '90s, he introduced film director Quentin Tarantino to producer Lawrence Bender, who helped Tarantino get Reservoir Dogs made.
In 1999, Spiegel directed the direct-to-video sequel to From Dusk Till Dawn, Texas Blood Money. Spiegel formed the production company Raw Nerve with film directors Eli Roth, and Boaz Yakin. Raw Nerve produced the film Hostel (2005), directed by Roth.
