Assault on Precinct 13 and The Shining all together


Robert Englund is back! He's one of my fave horror flix actors along with Jeffrey Combs. These are talented guys who everyday guys like me can identify with because they look like us. In Hollywood parlance, they're known as, character actors.

Check out the early acting career of Robert Englund in the 1972 drama, "Buster and Billy", where Englund plays the supporting role of a high school boy, so white in complexion that he's teased by the others as, 'Whitey'. Whitey is befriended by fellow high school student, a handsome athletic jock with a good heart, played by the then youthful Jan Michael Vincent.

I think I get the idea of this horror movie. It's one thing to stand outside of a tiger's cage and the zoo looking in. How would you react if all of a sudden you were inside the tiger's cage, with the tiger, and no way out? The denizens of the soon-to-be-closed police station find themselves trapped with a killer demon facing the prospect of gruesome deaths. This should be interesting.
