It will come to no surprise to anyone that Tom Vargas owes a Hell of a lot to H. Philip Lovecraft, and CAST A DEADLY SPELL. And then there was TREMORS, which is one the greatest Atomic Horror flicks of all time and I will fight anybody in this bar who dares besmirch its good name. And, oh yeah, there was that flick THE RIGHT STUFF. That Fred Ward, he was a good guy to see, up there on the big screen. My condolences to his family and loved ones*.

Always loved Cast a Deadly Spell.
‘What makes me different is that I’m my own Man. When I started out I said there were things I’d do and things I wouldn’t do. Lotta guys start out like that …’
One of those actors you always wondered why he never did more (like Michael Biehn or Robert Forrester.) Everything I saw him in I liked him in (although, Chuck Yeager parts aside, I have never been a huge fan of Right Stuff.)
RIP, Mr Ward. Catch you on the flip side.
