Andrews was born Joey Murcia Jr. in Key Largo, Florida. [2] His cinéma vérité-meets-exploitation filmmaking style has been compared to that of John Waters and Harmony Korine. He grew up in trailer parks, which feature prominently, along with their inhabitants, in many of his films. He also spent time living in a van with his father before they were both cast in an infomercial, which led to more acting jobs for Giuseppe.
Director Adam Rifkin has said of Andrews "Giuseppe Andrews is the most ferociously original filmmaker working in cinema today. No matter what new things he tries, everything is always signature Giuseppe Andrews. He is a true auteur." Rifkin also directed a documentary about Andrews, titled Giuseppe Makes a Movie .
Andrews reprised his role as a sheriff's deputy in the Cabin Fever sequel Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever (2009). [3]
He also appeared in the ninth season of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation , in the episode titled "Let It Bleed".
Andrews disappeared from the public eye in 2015.
