Deathstalker Productions, led by Carissa Pierson, is breaking new ground in horror with their upcoming film, A Soldier’s Descent. This isn’t just another slasher—this is a visceral, heart-pounding horror experience that blends epic kills and brutal terror with real, raw topics that matter. Never before has a horror movie tackled Ptsd, suicide, domestic violence, and substance abuse with this level of honesty while keeping audiences on the edge of their seats. A Soldier’s Descent aims to shock, scare, and make history, all while raising awareness and helping save lives.

Filming begins this November and will take place across some of North Carolina’s most atmospheric locations:...

Deathstalker Productions is firing up the cauldron with Vista Street Entertainment and Sterling Entertainment to produce Witchcraft Xviii, the next explosive chapter in horror’s longest-running supernatural saga.

Since 1988, Witchcraft has woven dark magic and devilish drama across 17 direct-to-video installments, following the powerful warlock William Spanner as he battles his cursed bloodline to protect the innocent.

Producers Carissa Pierson, Andrew Pierson, and Kristina Lafser are bringing a fierce new energy to the series, promising a twisted mix of spine-chilling horror and jaw-dropping cameos from some of the hottest actors in genre today. Fans will be thrilled to see the return of iconic characters William Spanner, Keli Jordan, and Detective Garner,...

Get ready for blood, black and white, and pure throwback terror.

Andrew Pierson stars as the relentless Splatter Jack in Camp Slasher Lake, the latest horror vision from cult filmmaker Michael Moutsatsos. Shot as a short-form grindhouse experience for the 2025 festival circuit, Camp Slasher Lake is just the beginning — the feature-length version is already in pre-production and promising even more carnage.

Carissa Pierson is also on board as Executive Producer, helping bring this blood-soaked vision to life with true indie grit.

In this savage homage to classic slasher cinema, Pierson fully commits to the role of a brutal, masked killer with no mercy. The film drips with retro DNA — think Halloween colliding with Friday the 13th, then soaked in VHS grime and shot in stark black-and-white for maximum dread. It’s stylish, mean, and unrelenting. And in true grindhouse fashion: nobody makes it out alive.

Blood. Boobs. Booze… And Body Parts.

Prepare yourselves, horror fans. Andrew Pierson is stepping into the blood-soaked chaos of ZombieSluts Stripclub Slaughterhouse, the latest unapologetically wild vision from cult director Robbie Lopez. Pierson will star as Porter, the no-nonsense stripclub bouncer caught in the middle of a full-blown zombie outbreak at the sleaziest spot in town. And trust us—this isn’t your average undead party…

“It’s From Dusk Till Dawn meets Dead Alive, with a twisted obsession for practical FX, geysers of blood, and… let’s just say, a very unhealthy number of ripped-off d#cks,” teases the production team.

The film aims to shatter indie horror records:

Most practical effects in an independent horror feature

Most blood used on set

Most dismembered male members in cinematic history

This is a bold, brutal, boundary-pushing grindhouse gorefest with a darkly comedic edge—and Pierson’s role...

Forty years ago, writer/director Dan O’Bannon delivered one of the most highly entertaining zombie movies of all time with The Return of the Living Dead (watch it Here). A company called Living Dead Media LLC claims to own the copyright to the original screenplay and the underlying script for that film, as well as other trademarks, which is how they’re able to move ahead with a new Return of the Living Dead film that’s aiming for a Christmas 2025 release. But last year, a new company called Rotld Originals LLC was formed, with Return of the Living Dead cast member Beverly Randolph, a.k.a. Beverly Dawn Hartley, signing the formation document. It has since been revealed that Rotld Originals LLC is teaming up with DRagonSTUDIOS, a company that owns the trademarks to The Return of the Living Dead and Rotld Universe, for a movie project called Trash’s Revenge,...

The Return of the Living Dead universe mutates once again—and this time, it’s not just the dead you should fear. Andrew Pierson, a powerhouse actor with over 160 IMDb film credits, has joined the cast of Trash’s Revenge as Nathan Virel—a dangerous futurist with the influence of Elon Musk and the moral compass of a loaded weapon.

Known for his versatility and relentless work ethic, Pierson brings depth and danger to the role of Virel, a man who sees the apocalypse not as an ending—but as a hostile takeover.

Fresh off being cast as William Spanner in Witchcraft Xvii, the newest entry in the longest-running horror franchise in film history, and as Sgt. Barney Griffith in the upcoming psychological war horror A Soldier’s Descent, Pierson is cementing his status as one of indie horror’s most unstoppable forces.

He joins returning legends Thomas Matthews and Beverly Randolph,...

Growing up, I would always notice the Witchcraft movies sitting on the shelves of my local video stores. I was intrigued by them and the fact that this horror franchise was steadily pumping out sequels, but I never rented them. It wasn’t until 2011 that I spent thirteen weeks viewing my way through the entire series, one installment a week… and that was quite an experience, as this is one crazy series. In 2016, the franchise grew by three more sequels, with parts 14, 15, and 16 being filmed back-to-back-to-back. Now, prolific filmmaker Dustin Fergsuon, who has over 150 movies to his name, has announced that he’s making the next sequel, with Witchcraft Xvii: The Initiation scheduled to start filming on July 2nd with Ivy Smith taking on the lead role of Maya Reed. Smith’s previous credits include Lust, Magic, and the Witches’ Sabbath and the Full Moon productions Attack of the 50 Foot CamGirl and Giantess Battle Attack.
