WARWICK DAVIS's career as an actor came about purely by chance.
Back in 1981 his Grandmother heard a radio announcement calling
for people under four foot tall to appear in the new STAR WARS
film RETURN OF THE JEDI. He played the tiny Ewok, Wicket, who
became one of the film's lead creature characters.
After the success of ROTJ, Lucas went on to make two Ewok movies
for ABC television in which Davis reprised his performances
as Wicket in both. Warwick's film credits include LABYRINTH,
WILLOW, the LEPRECHAUN franchise. Up until this point in his
career, Davis had always been cast as a "goodie. "
On reading the script for Leprechaun, he was thrilled to learn
that this Leprechaun was in fact a 'baddie'. The film achieved
cult status with movie fans in America, which prompted no less
than four sequels to be made.
In 2002 Warwick began production for SKINNED DEEP.

Gabe
Bartalos (Director)
As
long as he can remember, 37 year old Special Effects Make-Up artist
Gabe Bartalos has had a healthy fascination with fantasy and horror.
Starting with painting, then sculpture, Bartalos was able to put
these talents on display by filming them in his own graphic Super-8
films. "The perfect blend of art and storytelling".
Gabe was able to sharpen his skills by working on a string of N.Y.
independent films and then eventually moved to Los Angeles to start
his own effects company, Atlantic West Effects.
Bartalos was quick to leave his mark in the horror genre by teaming
up with Director Frank Henenelotter on horror classics such as BRAIN
DAMAGE, FRANKENHOOKER, BASKET CASE 2 + 3.
This was followed by a long relationship with Trimark/LionsGate
with the 6 LEPRECHAUN films, SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK and FROZEN.
Bartalos' skills were sought out for the massive T-Rex creation
in Doug Trumballs ambitious IMAX film, BACK TO THE FUTURE- THE RIDE,
then more carnage in BLOODRUSH, FREEJACK, PLAYING GOD, and creatures
in DEADSPACE, GENII, and SIDESHOW. Gabe then teamed with director,
studio head, Jim Glickenhause for his grisly needs in the Scott
Glenn thriller SLAUGHTER OF THE INNOCENTS, and TIMEMASTER.
Always sticking close to the East coast, Gabe contributed the elaborate
make-up effects for artist/filmmaker Matthew Barneys lush CREMASTER
cycle, multiple ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE photo shoots with celebrity
photographer Mark Seliger, (including the now infamous Marilyn Manson
'Dark Feather Fantasy') and then back in LA, the disturbing disintegration
effects with IMAGINARY FORCES, for the on-going ANTI-SMOKING campaign.
Currently Bartalos has come full circle with his directorial debut,
SKINNED DEEP, a high energy fever-dream, that he scripted as well.
