well known actors/actresses in crappy horror movies

[horror junkie]

What movies made you laugh when you realized who was in them?!?

Tom Hanks in He Knows You're Alone- that movie was so awful that we fast forwarded (sp.??)the rest of it with our own dialouge. its much better that way

Jennifer Aniston in Leprachaun- though I haven't seen it, I doubt it won an oscar

how could they sink so low??? LOL

Hey the leprechaun is a masterwork in crap.(I like it, but most people dont, but then again, they probably thought it was goign to be full of great acting and stuff, crazy people) and i cant remember of any well known actors in crappy movies, if freddie prinze jr and those awful i know movies count, i'll say them.

[countchocula]

Lou Diamond Phillips (Route 666)
Lance Henriksen (The Mangler 2)
Kevin Bacon (Friday the 13th)

Yes, Leprechaun is an underrated b-movie delight. Aniston should be proud to have it on her resume!

[The Claw]

hahaha lou diamond phillips in BATS, good god in heaven that was a terrible worthless piece of shit, and i'm pretty sure the mangler 2 is terrible, seeing how the first is teh worst film ever. and good call on the 1st friday teh 13th, that one reeks of ass.

I know it looks funny with hindsight, but all of these actors had mortgages/rent/bills to pay, and took what work they could. So don't knock 'em for it. (I've been there myself, then went into the REAL paying part of the industry...production.)

As for me, I can't understand why an award-winning actor like Brad Dourif keeps playing low-key parts in genre films when he could be raking it in on his own talent.

Can we count John Fallon in Deadly Scavengers? http://www.joblo.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Maybe he's doing the thing he loves. He's a very talented actor(one of my favorites) and I'm very happy to see him doing the movies he does. Looking forward to Two Towers to see him as Grima Wormtongue.

Cool its gonna be great to see brad do this i cant wait :-)

I've already seen some of the footage from Two Towers, including one of Grima's scenes. Brad Dourif totally *rocks* in the part. His fans most certainly won't be disappointed.

[horror junkie]

Don't worry, I didn't mean anything by it, I'm sure I would take anything I could get!! It would be pretty fun to be in a cheesy B-movie in my book!

marisa tomei in the toxic avenger

Charlton Heston in The Omega Man. The movie didn't offend me terribly until I read I Am Legend by Richard Matheson, the book from which it was adapted. Only then did I realise the degree to which the movie sucked. I still keep my fingers crossed that someone with a level of admiration for the source material equal to mine will someday do the book justice. It's probably the finest horror novel ever written...certainly the best Vampire novel.

[The Claw]

Troll and Toxic Avenger are GOOD b grade movies

[iRottenCotton]

Holly Hunter is in the Burning....I think its a good movie IMO,

[JustOneFix]

George Clooney in RETURN TO HORROR HIGH
