Richard Brooker is a man originally from England who moved to the
United States in the early 80's. Needing a job, he answered an ad in Dramalogue magazine for the role of a large man in an un-named horror film (he is 6'3). He later discovered the role was that of
psychopathic mama's boy/mass murderer Jason Voorhees, and the film was to be
Friday the 13th: Part III. Since then, Brooker has starred in "Deathstalker", "Deep Sea Conspiracy", and was in an episode of "Trapper John, M.D.". Brooker now does mostly directing and TV production.
