Aj Bowen is a man in-demand. Not only has he just finished an amazing year of appearing in the horror film The House of the Devil, he's just wrapped a role in Hatchet 2 and A Horrible Way to Die. You'll remember Aj from the 2007 film The Signal, in which he stole the entire film as the violent and be-bearded Lewis Denton. Since then Aj has had an on-again, off-again facial hair arrangement which can only be described as glossy and magnificent when present.
