Your favourite bad actors

No Gary Busey?

I'd go Caroline Munro & Charles Gray.
 
Raquel Welch. I was laughed out of court at my local youth club in the mid-70's for saying Raquel couldn't act (I'd just been to see the Three Musketeers). The response was a chorussed and incredulous, "You went to see Raquel for her acting??!!!|"
 
I wanna see the actor who played Ziggy in The Wire S2 in something else... saw him in Ken Park and he plays this fucked up kid who ties belts between his neck and doorknobs while he wanks off and kills both his grandparents. Good actor but he looks so weasly so it'll be good to see if he can do anything else.
 
Nicholas Cage. Can't stand Arnie, but a few weeks ago I was drawn to the telly watching him in 'Twins'....so bad, so terrible but watchable because of Danny Devito.

He plays one of the soldiers in Generation Kill.
 
Yeah, he's hyper and crazy and kinda Ziggy-like in a way that guy. Good character though, and the dude's definitely got acting skillz. Can't think of a single person in the Wire's cast that I thought was a bad actor, although to be fair i'm pretty crap at judging 'em unless they're fairly obvious.

Would Sylvester Stallone be nice n controversial? :cool:

sonja sohn is a bit shit as greggs
 
Michael Ironside might be a terrific actor, but there's absolutely no way to tell, given how he just spends his time playing badass villains or occasionally badass supporting goodies.

Wry and I were watching a film we can't remember now, but there was someone in it who we both commented 'Hey! That guy is a low rent Gary Busey'

We also think Gary Busey is a low-rent someone else, but he's too funny and quite frankly batshit insane to be too mean to.

Good to see Sammo Hung getting a mention. We need to really start digging into the world of Terrible US TV Shows on this thread. The low-hanging fruit have been picked.
 
Keanu surely deserves a mention for having strayed not an iota beyond the range employed in Bill and Ted's Excellent adventure.

oh? what's he like in that? ziggy-esque?

Sly is so endearingly Hollywood though. Gotta love him.

Hells yeahhh, Stallone + big machine gun + the Burmese army = cinematic history! :D

Generation Kill is pretty short, 7 episodes, and like the Wire it's quite dense and slightly inaccessible at first until you get all the slang and general endless banter... not finished it yet, but it's good stuff. Quite bleak and also hilarious though. Soldiers singing along to Tainted Love and fnarrring all over the reporter's pic of his girlfriend :D
