Michael Biehn was Oscar worthy


Great performance, probably the best of his career, definitely deserving of a “Best Supporting Actor” nomination

Yeah I agree with this. He made a great baddie didn't he. He's such an underrated actor.

I watched Tombstone like a hundred times before I realized he was in it. Dude's a great actor.

Seems like a great guy off-screen too, check out this recent interview: https://youtu.be/JMdXkT2DEXc?si=Ultz6aNeZXEMYM21

He was great in Tombstone too, always played a great bad guy, had that manic energy which always made him watchable

Indeed. One of the best villains ever. It takes so much more to make the audience really hate you than to be just the hero with the nice dialog...
