Was John Shea Imitating Jeffrey Combs???


I'm guessing Combs was the first choice for the role~!

it would kinda make sense considering brian yuzna and stuart gordon wrote the original film.

Well, I've never seen any of the guys performances, so I wouldn't no whether or not to agree with the OP.

he has similar tendencies but i wouldn't go as far as saying they were trying to rip the character off or anything. i hadn't actually thought of this until you mentioned it.

for starter's they are both scientists/ doctors.
they both have black hair and wear glasses.
they both are just very driven people who will stop at nothing in their conquests so they come off appearing quite eccentric in some cases and because of their crazed plans they are seen as evil.

anything else i am forgetting?
