James Isaacs was most notably known for “Jason X” and “Skinwalkers”. He also directed the cool uberswine horror flick “Pig Hunt” which I loved! Mr. Isaacs lost his battle with a rare blood cancer at age 54. His career started as a ‘creature technician’ on “Return Of The Jedi” and “Gremlins” after which he began his special effects legacy with David Cronenberg on films like “The Fly”, “eXistenz”, and “Naked Lunch”. James Isaacs received his first chance to direct with the film “The Horror Show/House III” before moving on to direct the 2002 “Jason X”.
