Back in season 5 of ‘The Walking Dead’, we watched as Rick (Andrew Lincoln) killed the cannibal Gareth (Andrew J.

‘Rock Paper Dead’ – A New Horror Icon Is Born (Review)

We here at Horror Fuel have been tracking Rock Paper Dead since back in 2015. The film was written by Kerry Fleming and Victor Miller (Friday the 13th), directed by Tom Holland (Child’s Play), and produced by Fleming and Amy Williams. After interviewing both Fleming and Miller, we could not wait to see the final film. That day has finally come. Earlier today, I sat back and pushed play with my fingers crossed that the film would be everything I had hoped for. Luckily, it was.

Today, I sat down to talk with former NFL player turned actor-writer-producer to discuss his upcoming role in Tragedy Girls which looks fantastic by the way.
