Tampa Bay Screams received the sad news that Tampa Bay-based actor Jules Sceiro has passed away. Jules was a longtime attendee of Tampa Bay Screams and acted in many horror films and cult movies produced in the West Central Florida area, including: H.G. Lewis's "The Uh-Oh! Show", "American Holokaust", "The Nine Lives of Brice", "Franklin: A Symphony of Pain", Joel D. Wynkoop's "The Craiglon Incident" movie series, and Sean Donohue's "Death-Scort Service 2: The Naked Dead."

On a personal note, I had a pleasant time working with Jules on "The Uh-Oh! Show" and found him to be a very funny person who was always a blast to be around.

We are saddened about this news and extend our condolences to his many creative friends and collaborators. God Bless Jules Sceiro, and May His Memory Be Eternal.
