In a triple-threat move that proves he’s one of the busiest directors in the game, Harry Sparks is making waves across the board. The acclaimed filmmaker just snagged a nomination for Fan Favorite Director at the 2026 Urban X Awards, is celebrating the VOD release of his latest feature, “Visions,” and is gearing up to terrify audiences again with a sequel to his mainstream horror hit, “Scissors.”
Fans First: An Award Nomination That Matters
In an industry where audience connection is king, getting a nod for “Fan Favorite Director” is a huge deal. The Urban X Awards nomination recognizes Sparks’ consistent ability to deliver creative, high-quality stories that resonate with viewers—from his popular erotic parodies like “Wednesday XXX” to blockbuster features for studios like Elegant Angel.
The director was quick to share his appreciation for the recognition, highlighting the collaborative spirit of his work.
“Being nominated for Fan Favorite Director is such an honor. I’m truly grateful to the fans who continue to support my work and to the talent and crew who inspire me.”
This nomination taps directly into the current industry-wide focus on fan engagement. It’s not just about making movies; it’s about building a community. Fans who want to show their support can cast their votes on the official Urban X Awards voting site until August 1, 2025.
A New ‘Vision’ of Erotica
While the award nomination buzzes, Sparks isn’t resting on his laurels. His brand-new erotic feature, “Visions,” just dropped on VOD, and it’s a perfect example of his playful and escapist style. Created for Elegant Angel, the film stars Jewelz Blu as a fortune teller whose steamy session with a client (played by Vanessa Sky) unleashes a wave of sensual adventures across Hollywood, with her bubbly assistant (Kimmy Kimm) along for the ride.
The release of “Visions” showcases Sparks’ talent for crafting plot-driven narratives that are as engaging as they are steamy, a signature that keeps his audience coming back for more.
Get Ready to Scream Again: ‘Scissors 2’ is Coming
Proving his versatility, Sparks is also sharpening his blades for a return to mainstream horror. He’s currently in pre-production for “Scissors 2,” the sequel to his slasher flick that found a new audience and cult following after streaming on Tubi.
The original “Scissors” brought together a unique cast of adult and horror stars—including Jill Kassidy, Avery Jane, Tommy Pistol, and Scotty Schwartz (of “A Christmas Story” fame)—to tell the story of a killer clown hunting a group of college students. The crossover appeal was a massive hit, and the announcement of a sequel has fans from both worlds buzzing with anticipation. Filming for “Scissors 2” is slated to begin this fall, promising another round of stylish scares.
Building the Sparks Brand
Tying all these projects together is Sparks’ new digital headquarters. In a move that reflects the modern creator-owned trend, he’s launched a hub on Komi where fans can find everything in one place: his movies, exclusive merch, and all the latest updates on “Scissors 2.” This direct-to-fan approach allows him to connect with his audience on his own terms, something he actively does on his social media, like his X account, @HarrySparksXXX.
From fan awards to genre-hopping filmmaking, Harry Sparks is firing on all cylinders. His current projects not only highlight his creative range but also his savvy understanding of what today’s audiences want: great stories and a direct line to the creators they admire.
