Who Is That Guy?
If there was ever a better example of a Hollyweird star that you see all the time in movies but yet never remember the poor clods name, I can’t think of it. This cat has been in 158 movies and TV shows over his illustrious career, been professionally acting for the better part of 40 years, and has been nominated for 4 Golden Globes, yet whenever I see him on screen, the only thing I can think to say is, “Hey, there’s that guy with the face.”
While it can be argued whether he is an A or a B actor, the one thing that is beyond argument is that I look fantastic in my snug cotton/poly-blend sweater I bought Saturday at The Bay. What does that have to do with this segment? Not an awful lot really, I just thought I’d give you a kickin’ visual that you can take with you all week.
The reason I’m posting this guy is because TLDG and I watched the movie Screamers II last night and he was in it. Neither TLDG or I could remember his name, but Screamers II was a movie we’ll never forget. And not in a good way. Watching that movie was slow torture, like being strapped to a board while a pack of cats blow nose air from their nostrils right onto your face.
Not that I have given you any information about this guy, but what I have given you may have been too much. I’m generous to a fault, just ask the sperm bank, they’ll confirm that for you.

This gnetleman is none other than Lance Henriksen, whose greatest role was as Chains Cooper in Stone Cold with Brian Bosworth.

No, no, no. Lance’s best role was in Pumpkinhead as Ed Harley.

Pumpkinhead did rule the day. I think I actually liked that movie.

I absolutely loved it - but my crowd likes to give me shit about it so I haven’t watched it in a long time. I like Lane Henrikson in just about everything he’s been in - he’s got an interesting look. Near Dark, Aliens…

Just finished watching the Aliens trilogy last week. Highly recommended. You can pick up all three in one set for $9 at WalMart. What a deal!
