Movie geek obsessive compulsion from the dusty corners of Hollywood
Oh yeah?
Yeah! Membership of the collection is very random and encompasses the greats and the not so greats... Actors whose careers didn't always take off are often included in this wierd club but usually its just grandstanding an oblique knowledge of cinema's byways and back alleys...
Brian Wilde Yes, him; Mr Barraclough! but more than that he's the hysterical yokel Rand Hobart in Night of the Demon.
"Its in the trees! Its coming!" he shouts before collapsing in a trance. This line was sampled into hounds of love by Kate Bush, (now thats what I call obssesively trivial)
Udo Kier Royal Oh yes! He's got his own website and its a doozy, well not a doozy really as i can't read German but its good to know there are other udophiles (?!) out there
More Vernon success! He's credited in King of the ants directed by Stuart Gordon (Fortress) and scripted by Charlie Higson no less
Where's the women eh? Dunno why but there just aren't enough candidates. Its a sexist business when the women can't even get into a compendium of has-beens, grotesques and also rans. 
Gale Sondergaard could well be one. She sticks out now as the spooky house keeper in Cat and the canary with Bob Hope
Fan-bloody-tastic! Vernon's got his own fansites. And I thought it was just lil' ole me. Saw Mad Max II last night and its definately one of his best.
Like a lot of other people I hit my late thirties and started to implode. My partner said ‘do something else’ so I did and hit upon timber framing. Not picture frames, not stick frames but heavy timeber building; preferably out of oak. I also make joinery. Enjoy
