Rusty, a native of Hampshire, England, was immersed in the cinematic arts from a tender age. The theatrics of film captivated his imagination, and he was particularly inspired by the work of Christopher Lee and the "Hammer Horror" genre. This spark ignited a passion within him to create and star in his own films.
After completing his studies in film, media, and graphic design in college, Rusty embarked on a prolific and distinguished career in the film industry. He has worked in nearly every capacity, including actor, stuntman, director, writer, and special make-up effects artist. Additionally, he has also taken on marketing roles, such as graphic design for posters and DVD box art.
Beyond his work in film, Rusty is a talented singer-songwriter and musician in his own right. He has composed music for over 50 titles and has released several solo albums, garnering praise from renowned composers, including the legendary horror composer Harry Manfredini, who described his music as "a magical melding of atmospheric and minimalist that captures both your ears and imagination."
Rusty has also ventured into film direction, helming projects such as "Spirits of the Fall" and "The Whistler," which have gained cult status and critical acclaim. "The Whistler" was even named "One of the Best Indie Horrors of 2010" by Shock Horror Magazine.
To this day, Rusty continues to reside in Hampshire, effortlessly juggling his various pursuits in the film and music industries.
