Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 11, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 Michael Parks is tremendous in the Kill Bill films in both of his roles, probably the best value performance in the films. His voice in the crime investigation scene in the chapel is compellingly memorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted May 12, 2017 Awards Moderator Share Posted May 12, 2017 You're bringing up Fort Boyard for goddamn Catweazle?! I'm sure he was in his nineties when that was filmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BomberPat Posted May 12, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted May 12, 2017 Bloody hell, I had no idea he was still alive! He turned down the chance to play the first Doctor Who, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check it out!  https://twitter.com/GeoffreyBayldon  His first Tweet is a corker.    Sorry lads  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted May 15, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted May 15, 2017 I just watched Sudden Death the other night as well, which is incredibly spooky on two levels Great character actor but he could lead a film as well, as he proved with Southern Comfort. 2017 is proving to be almost as shitty for deaths.

Paid Members chokeout Posted May 15, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted May 15, 2017 Oh for fucks sake  he was a cold bastard as Curly Bill in Tombstone. Was a perfect rent-a-baddie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Loved him as Cy Tolliver in Deadwood, and always thought his wonderful real name would've sufficed for the character as well. They really should've sorted out that movie before now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daily Buzzard Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 He should have been hanged at the time, the death sentence wasn't abolished until after the murders had taken place (but before the trial). Ridiculous that he (and Hindley) were kept alive at the taxpayers expense for all these years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous that he (and Hindley) were kept alive at the taxpayers expense for all these years. Surely this theory would apply to all murderers then? That they should all be killed so taxpayers don't have to pay for them, or am I missing the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
