I’ve watched “In The Mouth of Madness” so many times. It is in my top 3 most re-watched horror movies list. Perfect Lovecraftian horror, and Sam Neill was perfect in it.

Do you read Sutter Cane?

So sad. Jurassic Park had a tremendous impact on me as a dino obsessed teenager ( was 13 when it came out). RIP.

It’s a unix system, I know this!

The file navigator she used was running on a silicon graphics machine, called fsn

One of my favorite actors of all time. If you haven’t seen it, watch The Dish.

Not my favourite movie though. The horror in space trope is a very tired one.

Alongside the poorly lit spaceship. Spaceships are workplaces and workplaces should provide adequate illumination so you can see what you are doing.

But I LOVE what he did for the New Zealand flag.

Even Horizon is a Warhammer 40k film that has nothing to do with Warhammer 40k.

Hunt for the Wilder People was fun, as was Reilly, Ace of Spies.

He had a lovely gentle demeanor about him. He was good recently in the Untamed series.

RIP. Where he's going, he won't need eyes. Wait, perhaps that was an inappropriate quote to use.

A minute of silence for him. No echoes.
