RIP Anthony James, the memorably scary chauffeur in 'Burnt Offerings"

He was also in "Unforgiven," "In the Heat of the night," and a whole lot of other movies.

A memorable face if not a handsome one. At 6'6", he was ideal for playing supernatural roles and menacing types.

Fuck! Everyone I grew up watching is dying. I feel so damned old.

Loved him on Married...With Children as the guy with hooks for hands.

Also from "Charlie's Angels" episode "Angels in Chains."

He was memorably repulsive as one of the gay hitch-hikers in [bold]Vanishing Point[/bold] (1971), who tries to rob the driver at knifepoint.

For me, he epitomized the ugly hot guy. RIP.

Burnt Offerings - now there's a movie I haven't thought about in a long, long while

Never married, and lived with his mother. Time to do the math? (Although he did appear to be quite a decent person).
