Christopher Beau Landon (born February 27, 1975) is an American film director, producer, and screenwriter best known as the writer of 2007 film ''Disturbia'', the last three ''Paranormal Activity'' films and as the son of late actor Michael Landon. Landon wrote and made his first directorial debut on the satirical thriller ''Burning Palms'', which was released in 2010.

==Career==
Landon, following his father Michael Landon's footsteps in filmmaking, studied screenwriting at Loyola Marymount University, but dropped out three years into the course to pursue a career when film director Larry Clark offered him a writing job after reading one of his scripts.〔 〕 He went on to co-write the script of ''Another Day in Paradise'' with Eddie Little and Stephen Chin. After writing ''Another Day in Paradise'', he came out as gay, aware that homophobia may have harmed his potential in the industry. "I may fall off some list because of my sexuality. But if that happens, then I really don't want to be on that list anyway," he said, speaking of homophobia in Hollywood and the film industry.〔 "I was the flavor of the month, and then I was quickly dismissed. I reached a point in my career when I couldn't get a meeting anywhere." He moved from Los Angeles to Austin, Texas, contemplating the future of his career, which he revived only a few years later.〔
Most of Landon's films deal with gay themes and issues, including ''$30'', one of five components in ''Boys Life 3'', a collection of short films dealing with issues faced by gays, and a spec script about the relationship between a straight man and a gay man.〔 More recently, he has written the screenplays of the 2007 films ''Blood and Chocolate'', ''The Flock'' and the acclaimed ''Disturbia''. ''Disturbia'' was one of his spec scripts which was brought to Montecito Pictures and subsequently DreamWorks Pictures, and went on to become No. 1 in cinemas upon its release.〔〔 He is currently working on ''The Lesson'', an upcoming film for DreamWorks, and the 2007 television series ''Dirty Sexy Money'', his first television project, eager to expand his repertoire.〔〔 He is currently working on the screenplay of the film adaption of Lisa McMann's young adult novel ''Wake''. Landon also made his directorial debut in ''Burning Palms'', which is a comedic thriller.
After writing ''Paranormal Activity 2'', ''Paranormal Activity 3'' and ''Paranormal Activity 4'', Landon made his directorial debut on the franchise spinoff, ''Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones'', and followed it up with ''Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Scout's Honor: 'Paranormal's Christopher Landon Helming 'Boy Scouts vs. Zombies' )〕
