PopHorror Let's Get Scared
I’ve been a huge fan of Kiah Roache-Turner since his first film Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead. I followed his career ever since from his demon/Ghostbusters pastiche Nekrotronic to Wyrmwood: Apocalypse.

The Hellraiser franchise has been rife with some of the worst, most unwatchable films that have ever been made.
