He is the director of various B/cult films, including what Dread Central calls ’the notoriously terrible’ Bats, in 1999, a film, however, praised by Mark F. Berry in his book about dinosaur films, in which this author considers that Bats is a ’handsome and misunderstood fifties-monster homage’’, explaining Morneau's personal style by his former career as film editor. The B movie French site sees in him a "yes man", who "is not inherently bad, but will quickly specialize in broke direct-to-video .". Morneau is also known for being "the man behind horror sequels Joy Ride [2: Dead Ahead], The Hitcher: I've Been Waiting, Carnosaur 2".
After
Carnosaur 2 in 1995, he directed Retroactive, and Made [Men |Made Men]'' the year after, both starring Jim Belushi, the latter also starring Timothy Dalton.
