About me:
"...if the twisted shrub of British horror is to grow back into a mighty oak of terror, it needs to be periodically doused with blood ... and Johannes Roberts is the necessary man with a bucket!" Kim Newman
I am the director of the award winning horror series When Evil Calls. Released my MTV's AMP'D network in America one clip alone was downloaded 500,000 times when it was leaked on YOU TUBE. The success of the series led to an extended version being released on DVD. The film was released by Lionsgate in America and Sony Pictures released the film in the UK where the film charted in the top ten on release, launching Sony's new Fright Night division. The series stars Sean Pertwee (Dog Soldiers), Dominique Pinon (Amelie), Jennifer Lim (Hostel) and Chris Barrie (Red Dwarf). A thirteen part television series has been commisioned for development.
Previous to this I directed the cult hit Forest of the Damned (released by Universal Music in America as Demonic). The film starred horror icon Tom Savini and was released by Warner Brothers in the UK. The film was watched by 82,000 people on its television premier in the UK and has screened regularly on The Horror Channel since. The film was a top 15 horror hit on the Love Film chart, Europe's number one rental service, spending several months in the top twenty. A sequel is currently in production. Other films I have directed include Darkhunters which starred Hollywood legend Jeff Fahey (Stephen King's The Lawnmower Man and the fourth series of Lost). My films are on release in over fifty countries across the world. I am represented by ICM as a writer and director. I have just directed the music video for Emily Maguire's debut single Keep Walking which is released by Universal. I own the production company Gatlin Pictures. I hope the above impresses you. It damn well should. You want more? My first film starred Uri Geller and my second film starred Darren Day. More? There is no more. I have laid my life bare for you you ungrateful bastard. No wait. I did win a prize for a project I did on Haley's Comet when I was ten. Now go and rent one of my films. I said rent not download for free.

Top ten Wild Child Publishing horror novel after two days…
'For weeks, I have tossed and turned in my bed in turmoil over whether to publish this. But the people of this town must be warned. Everyone must be aware of the danger lurking in the dark, waiting.'
