About Me


Ryan Nicholson loves horror movies, plain and simple. Ryan started out in the film world as an award-winning make-up effects artist but writing and directing were always in his sights. After smearing the 'net with blood with his first short film " Torched ", Ryan focused on writing and directing his first feature length movie Live Feed . By the time "Live Feed" had hit video stores across North America, Ryan was already gearing up for his next feature. The brutal horror-comedy-revenge flick " Gutterballs ", released in 2008, became an international underground hit. Next comes Ryan's blood-soaked nightmare " Hanger ", starring famous Scream Queen Debbie Rochon, which will hit shelves on November 17, 2009, and the slasher/psycho-thriller Star Vehicle for 2010.

Fans of "Gutterballs" rejoice, for there is also a sequel in the works! "Gutterballs 2: Balls Deep" will take place at a waterslide park, and may outdo the first film as a riot of boobs, bush and blood!

"I make movies that I want to see", Ryan says about his filmography. "I can't wait around for someone else to make them." When asked about the ultra-violent content and excessive gore in his movies, Ryan had this to say, "I make more is more horror. I am not of the school of thought that showing something off-screen is more effective than showing it on-screen. I like to show everything. I leave nothing to the imagination." Looking at Ryan's work, he is a man of his words!
