Shamefully underrated


Why isn’t this guy and more stuff? I feel like the only work he gets are the Tremors sequels, and these new ones are godawful now. He is still the only bright spot in Tremors 5 and 6 and acts circles around the next best performance in either film. This is the kind of guy that, in an alternate timeline, would have at least one Oscar nomination under his belt. Someone needs to cast him in some good stuff quick before he gets too old.

He was great in some episodes of the Law & Order series: the original, CI, and SVU

So what. Hes past retirement age and probably doesnt need the cash. He has had a pretty successful sustainable career. The Tremor films has probably been a nice source of income for him. Bad b movies sure but lots of scifi fans like cheap bad films.

He played a real evil asshole in a movie I saw from the late 80s/early 90s. I can't remember the title but it left an impression because he was nothing like his Mr. Keaton persona.

Watching all of the Tremor movies right now. Definitely felt the same way.
