Emily Hagins (born October 27, 1992), is an Austin based filmmaker, who is most famous for directing the 2006 independent feature film, Pathogen at the age of 12.

She was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and moved to Austin, Texas in 1992.

Since her early childhood, Emily had always had an interest in film and filmmaking. She always had a keen interest in movies, and by second grade had earned the nickname, "The movie girl" by her classmates. Not long after reading J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit, she saw Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and was inspired to make her own movies. She made 8 short films including It's a Dog's Life and a documentary about an independent film, CrazyInsane Productions' Organic. At age 10 her short-films had drawn the interest of Harry Knowles, a critic with Ain't It Cool News. He shared her short, Buddie vs. The Barbies I with director Cameron Crowe who found it "really funny". At Butt-numb-a-thon 5 she saw her first zombie film, UNDEAD which inspired her to expand her repertoire. By May 2004, she finished the screenplay for Pathogen, a feature-length zombie film. In August 2005, she won a Texas Filmmakers Production Fund grant to finish post production work on the film. She finished the film which premiered at the Alamo Drafthouse and the publicity persuaded organizers to name her the youngest-ever guest-of-honor at CONvergence 2007 in Bloomington, Minnesota. Vacdoomed Productions released a documentary about Hagins, Zombie Girl: The Movie profiling her production of Pathogen.
