    Shit...

    I used to see him a lot at small time boxing events around L.A.
    Him and Gene Hackman were regulars.

    Really nice guy.

    Another guy caught in Kevin Bacon's scramble to survive.

    Remo Fucking Williams: The Adventure Begins

    I remember seeing a commercial for it when I was a kid. The adventure didn't last long.

    Fred was one of those rare solid B-movie actors that could step up to A-list supporting actor competently. Nobody else could have played the father of Joe Dirt. RIP

    B-movie actors are the best. They have to be because most of the scripts blow chunks.

    Watched "Cast a Deadly Spell" again today. Was a pretty decent movie from HBO back in the day...
