Actor Nathan Head

Nathan Head is a British actor with over two decades of experience across film and television. He is best known for his chilling performance as Trinculo the killer clown in the cult horror hit Theatre of Fear, and for his role as Officer Heinrich Berger in Robert and the Toymaker, the third installment of Netflix's popular Robert the Doll franchise. Building on this legacy, Nathan co-stars in the upcoming Dracula: Rise of the Vampire, a bold continuation of the Hammer legacy, set fifty years after The Satanic Rites of Dracula, bringing new blood to one of cinema’s most iconic gothic sagas. Demonstrating both his horror roots and occasional flair for the absurd, Nathan has appeared in five "of the Dead" films, including Virus of the Dead, Harvest of the Dead II, King of the Dead, Book of the Dead, and the spoof Attack of the Flatulating Dead. More recently, Nathan appeared in a guest role in the long-awaited Bill & Ted Face the Music, adding a cult comedy to his acting résumé.

Based in Chester, in the North West of England, Nathan has built a diverse career, with multiple films achieving commercial success and cult status. Robert and the Toymaker charted in Tesco, Morrisons, and HMV, and was featured on Sky Cinema via Sky Store. Theatre of Fear debuted at number 19 in Asda’s DVD chart and remained in the top 40 for two weeks. The dinosaur mockbuster Jurassic Predator, released by Sony Pictures, climbed to number 2 in HMV’s DVD Premiere chart. His screen credits span an eclectic mix of genres, including the cult horror Ouijageist, a supernatural thriller spun off from the the Amityville Horror franchise, and Robot Wars: Battling On, an official documentary for which Nathan served as host and narrator. He also appeared in Grindsploitation, Troma’s groundbreaking first entry in what would become a long-running anthology series. Additional credits include Artifacts of Fear, ITV’s Crime Stories, 88 Films’ Hellriser, The Damned United, BBC's Doctors, and the international hit Ip Man 4. He works across both independent and studio productions, reflecting the variety and momentum of his ongoing career.

Nathan Head began his acting journey in Manchester, training at the Northern Actors Centre - whose patrons included Sarah Lancashire, Shobna Gulati, and Brigit Forsyth - before refining his skills through regular workshops and performances in independent films and fringe theatre. In 2007, he gained early attention with an appearance in the cult BBC science-fiction series Doctor Who and a role in the five-star comedy play Battered Egos at Salford Arts Theatre in 2008. This led to his casting as villain Raymond Korkinsky in the award-winning comedy-horror Mark Macready and the Archangel Murders, hailed as “British independent film at its best.” The film enjoyed a limited UK cinema run, screened over Halloween weekend in 2009, and was later showcased at the 63rd Festival de Cannes. Nathan also voiced a character in the animated spinoff Mark Macready: Underworld Tales. In 2010, he began a short collaboration with scare entertainment giants AtmosFEAR! Entertainment Group, playing Gauntley the Butler in their immersive FEARooms video and portraying the mummy Khamundi in the promotional material for the Terror Tomb attraction at Scare Kingdom Scream Park in Blackburn. His growing genre profile led to a starring role in Time Warner Cable’s Exorcist Chronicles and a BBC appearance to discuss his work in horror and his expanding international fanbase. Nathan is also a familiar face on the convention scene, regularly appearing at fan events and horror festivals across the United Kingdom.
