Tim O'Hearn was born Timothy Allen O'Hearn, with one older sibling. He has been making quite a name for himself the last few years in the Independent horror/action movie scene and has recently gone behind the camera as a writer/director. Tim grew up in northern NY near Watertown and at an early age was fascinated by horror movies and how they were made. When he was 13 he made a 3 minute film "the Creep" shot on Super 8mm influenced by the classic "I Was a Teenage Frankenstein". After high school he joined the US Air Force and worked as an electronic technician on B-52 aircraft stationed in upstate NY. Left the military after 4 years and moved near Binghamton NY where he resides today. 15 years later after being encouraged by a friend to pursue acting he got some head shots done and as they say, the rest is history. Tim also is a drummer playing in various rock bands regionally for over 30 years and is also a professional photographer.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
