[Trailer] ‘The Kane Hodder Story’ Digs Deep into the Life of a Horror Icon

Published

on

“I’ve murdered more people on film than any actor in history.”

Kane Hodder may often play a monster on screen, but if you’ve ever met him, you know that he’s one of the nicest guys on the horror scene. The legendary actor/stuntman’s life and career will be explored in Masterfully Macabre’s upcoming documentary To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story, premiering at FrightFest later this month.

Ahead of the premiere, the official theatrical trailer has been released.

The in-depth documentary includes interviews with Kane Hodder, Bruce Campbell, Bill Moseley, Cassandra Peterson, Sid Haig and Danielle Harris, to name just a few.

“To Hell and Back is a harrowing story of a stuntman overcoming a dehumanizing childhood filled with torment and bullying in Sparks, Nevada. After surviving a near-death burn accident, he worked his way up through Hollywood, leading to his ultimate rise as Jason Voorhees in the Friday the 13th series and making countless moviegoers forever terrified of hockey masks and summer camp.”

“After decades of watching Kane Hodder on screen, get ready to meet the man behind the mask in To Hell and Back – a uniquely human story about one of cinema’s most vicious monsters.”

The FrightFest premiere takes place August 26th in London, England.

Writer in the horror community since 2008. Editor in Chief of Bloody Disgusting. Owns Eli Roth's prop corpse from Piranha 3D. Has four awesome cats. Still plays with toys.
