Ah goddamnit! Candyman obviously but he was also great in the Rock and he had a hilarious guest appearance in Boston Public! Also, the Crow.

Ken Foree is still kicking so at least we have that.

The Night Of The Living Dead remake from 1990 is one of the first horror movies I remember really loving, and his performance is great. He rocks in a good episode of The X-Files, and he's so fun in the small time he appears in the Final Destination series. Glad he's in the new one coming out next year. His bizarre cameo in the first Hatchet is probably the best scene of the movie.

Candyman is one of my favorite horror films still, and he's absolutely magnetic. An iconic role for sure.

RIP

One of my favorite horror actors because, like Robert Englund, he never shied away from the genre or felt he was above it when the Candyman movies came out like a lot of actors that become much more famous have. Also a fantastic voice. Fun Fact: He voiced Venom in the Spider-Man 2 video game and Doom in The Flash CW Series.

I also love that he's in so many random 1 episode performances in TV shows from the late 80s to the early 00s: Night Court, MacGyver, Matlock, Law & Order, The X-Files, Homicide: Life on the Street, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Murder She Wrote, Beverly Hills 90210, NYPD Blue, Xena, Star Trek: Voyager, Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, Angel, Smallville, Crossing Jordan.
