Who here loved Vic the nightclub owner?


Hats off to Sandy Baron who played Vic the nightclub owner. Not just for his comedic wit, but I thought his chilling monologue about ridding society of the dregs & low-lifes was the highlight of the film, and his exit scene (I won't spoil it) had class. RIP Sandy Baron. Hope you made it to Vegas!

Great post. When he passed away years ago,I told people about his work in this. People only seem to know him from his TV work. He brought a great deal of class and depth to this already entertaining film.

Hey great to meet a SB fan! Yea, I recognized his face from tv (i.e. the crazy retiree who gave Seinfeld the astronaut pen), but I never saw him in a big role until Vamp. He really kicked this production up a notch or two. Would you say this is Sandy's best role? Are there other appearances worth seeing?

reply

I KNEW I recognised him! I'm a massive Sienfeld fan, but I never liked The Pen episode. He was the only good thing in it.

He's absoloutely hilarious in this film and almost steals he show.

He's great in every role.

He did an amazing job in Vamp. Comedically with lines like "builder of major erections" with the stripper dressed like a construction worker, and "not much upstairs, but what a staircase", etc.. Also dramatic with the dregs of humanity monologue. Plus who doesn't love Vegas?

Sandy Baron's character was one of the many aspects of this film that I loved. I'd always think of him in this role whenever I'd see him on Seinfeld.
