Derek Osedach

The legend, according to Mockbusters.tv

Derek Osedach's chameleon charisma refused to fit inside a single genre: When a Killer Calls captured him as pure dread, while Halloween Night let him be menace, mourning and mischief in one breath. From his very first unbroken take, the industry knew. Casting directors of enormous reputation whisper his name, never louder, as though volume might summon consequences. And then there is his crowning craft: looking just off-camera with such total conviction that audiences swear they saw whatever wasn't there. Hollywood's expensive imitations are still practicing.
