Muhuhuhahahahahaaaaarrrgggh

He will always be remembered for 2 film roles, which he did rather well (although very hollywodish) Moses and Ben Hur. One can never forget the sight of Moses with his hair and beard shining in the light coming off the holy mountain. Priceless. RIP!

I have Soylent Green on the video shelf.
Earthquake is one to avoid, even though Victoria Pricipal dons a rather tight tshirt

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"

My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser.

Yes I agree, he was a distinctive actor, who made several great roles his own. I particularly liked The Omega Man, but films like Ben Hur are still very watchable.

He was of course as we all now know, a leading light for the NRA of America, not something I particularly share a cause with, but I guess each to their own.

My System: Motorised dish, dvd players and recorders; a freeview box, broadband, VCRs, four TVs, mobiles, pcs, a mac, Ipod, digital cameras...the lot!

He was a great actor, often under used in my opinion. Brliiant in Planet of the Apes. And Solent Green.



I wish women would stop saying I'm very good looking. It's embarrassing...
