    Watch the Re-animator movies. He gets to be the lead! He has a knack for delivering B-horror scripts with the gravitas of the finest stage actors.

      I’ve been meaning to watch it for a while now; I’ll have to make that happen soon.

      Ever seen The Frighteners? The CGI definitely does not hold up, but the plot and acting are top-notch. Combs plays a super creep in it that you love to hate.
