Early lifeEdit
Demetral's parents were divorced when he was 3, and he lived with his father. They moved from Michigan to California in 1984, and he then started auditioning for parts. When Demetral was 10 years old, he answered an open call for The Return of the Living Dead. Demetral recalls that he was too young for the part; but he thought he would "be a good baby zombie or something", instead, he got sent to an agent and got signed that day.<ref name="mendoza"/>
