Can't figure out why he is unbilled in this? Love his scenes at the beginning. A very underrated actor who was taken much too soon.

I saw him in Theater of Blood (1973) and wondered who he was. I've since seen he was in this as well.

I've caught him in some other things since, but yea, it's strange he didn't do more or become known for more.

see the hill(1965)and get carter(1971),they're his best performances.
he was also on "the avengers" back in the 60's.

Thanks.

I've since seen him somewhere else. Can't recall where.

He really should have been more famous, it seems.

He was also in another film that deals with fate catching up with you - Tales from The Crypt (the 1972 film, as opposed to the very entertaining TV series)

He's also in the 1964 film Children of the Damned, which was very good. I had watched that film over the weekend and Damien tonight. I was shocked to see he was not listed in the credits of Damien.
