Ooh! Or the guy from the Fat Boy Slim video! He'd be fun, I bet. I could learn to dance.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Huh. Did we know Christopher Walken has overtaken Michael Caine as the man least likely to turn down a movie role?

He was in The Country Bears for fucksake. And Joe Dirt. And The Prophecy 3. Did we know it had gotten to 3?

Oh c'mon, there really isn't a movie titled Privateer 2: The Darkening! Is there?

Yes, of course, that would be the Most Fun Christopher Walken Character to hang with.

Though I suspect that Ple, in her perversity, would like Max Schreck.

Which Christopher Walken Character Would You Least Like To Be Trapped In A Room With?

The painfully shy Harry Nash from Who Am I This Time? Although it is one of my all-time favorite romantic comedies, and I love the relationship between Walken's Harry and Susan Sarandon's Helene, Harry Nash would drive me batf*ck within minutes.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Another nice-guy (if weird) Walken role: the father from Blast from the Past... so he hides his family for 35 years in a fallout shelter, but he does it out of love!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I love him in that movie.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You need asterisks by Bloodrayne and The Ring 2. If Bloodrayne counts, then you're missing Blade(s) and Underworld(s).

Thanks!

I guess you can tell which kind of films I'm more likely to go to. If only the French made more horror movies....
