After playing police officers and military men in films like Damien: Omen II

and Piranha II: The Spawning,

you had the one-two punch of horror-tinged sci-fi movies by James Cameron: The Terminator and Aliens.

You were a vampire in Near Dark

and a vengeful father summoning the demon Pumpkinhead.

You were brilliant and tortured as Frank Black in the TV series Millennium

and you even popped up in the very popular Scream movie series.

You’re sometimes scary, sometimes soulful and thoughtful. Thanks for all the horror memories.

Happy Cinco de Mayo, and a very happy birthday.
