Press Release

Scare Package II: Rad Chad’s Revenge has announced the cast and directors that will be coming to the sequel of the popular horror anthology. Co-created by Aaron B. Koontz and Cameron Burns, the film brings back many of the first film’s most beloved characters, including Rad Chad himself, Jeremy King, Final Girl Jessie, played by Zoe Graham, and Rad Chad’s video store foil Sam, played by comedian Byron Brown.

Additional cast joining in on the madness include Rich Sommer (Mad Men, Summer of 84), Kelli Maroney (Chopping Mall, Night of the Comet), Graham Skipper (Beyond The Gates, VFW), Maria Olsen (Paranormal Activity 3, Starry Eyes), and Shakira Ja’nai Paye (Obama’s Other Daughters, the upcoming House Party reboot).

The sequel also features returning director Anthony Cousins, with a sequel to his previous segment entitled The Night He Came Back Again Part VI: The Night She Came Back, with star Chelsey Grant. New directors include veteran actress Alexandra Barreto (All Americans, Mayans M.C.) with her segment Welcome to the 90s; Australian filmmaker Rachele Wiggins (Deadhouse Dark) with the segment We’re So Dead; UK filmmaker Jed Shepherd with his segment Special Edition, which reunites him with cast members from Shudder’s sensation Host, which he co-wrote and produced.

Scare Package II: Rad Chad’s Revenge immediately follows the events of the original with the survivors attending the funeral of “Rad Chad” Buckley. This quickly devolves into an elaborate series of death traps centered around Chad’s favorite films. The guests are forced to band together and use the rules of horror to survive the bloody game.

“Sequels have such a maligned, but significant part of horror history, so we couldn’t resist tackling the tropes that we know and love so well from our favorite horror franchises,” said Koontz. “But we knew that in true sequel fashion we’d have to go bigger, funnier and gorier, and this batch of filmmakers embraced that challenge in every way!”
