Ryan Nicholson — Creative Director

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 making the internet drip blood with his first short film "Torched", Ryan focused on writing and directing his first feature length movie "Live Feed". He has since gone on to write and direct all subsequent Plotdigger Films productions, including "Gutterballs", "Hanger", "Star Vehicle" and a host of projects currently in the works. "I make movies that I want to see", Ryan says. "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'm 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!

Michelle Grady — Co-Creative Director

As an artist, Michelle Grady sculpts and paints, creating horrifying setpieces with her ultra-realistic human bodies or spine-tingling creatures. As a producer, Michelle is very skilled with managing a crew and getting projects done on time and on budget. Working with Roy and Ryan, Michelle is often the mediator when heads butt and solving problems is just a days work to Michelle. "I've been given impossible deadlines with other film projects yet managed to get the job done. With Plotdigger Films, we know how long it takes to create the effects, the wardrobe, the props and everything else that is required to make a great looking movie, so we plan and plan, leaving very little margin for error." Michelle says. "I love being creative. Be it helping Ryan with his scripts or helping Roy manage the productions. It's all an art-form to me." One thing is certain, Michelle's mind-bending make-up effects have helped put Plotdigger Films on the map as a force to be reckoned with.

Jordan Boos — Eyeball Torturer

Jordan (J.R.) Boos is a jerk of all trades: web and graphic designer, writer and content producer, marketing guy, comic book writer/artist and donkey-show coordinator. He built and maintains this site, aids with marketing, and has created many of Plotdigger Films' graphics including logos, DVD covers and advertising. He also contributes creative input such as screenplays and comics to certain Plotdigger projects. John Carpenter's The Thing ripped holes into Jordan's brain when he was a child, and he's been a depraved horror-loving monster ever since.
