I just posted this in the shout box, but, come on. He deserves his own thread. RIP Donald Moffat. Hey, he was in Sleepy Hollow, NY, when he died. Not a wholly inappropriate place to die, for a horror actor.

Yeah, he was really likeable, wasn't he? It's funny how some famous people strike us that way, we just LIKE them, they seem like good people or something. Like when Roy Scheider died, I got surprisingly depressed. I had never even thought much about him particularly, but when he died I was really sad for awhile, like I had lost an old friend.

Who else is like that... Paul Rudd comes to mind. Shit, I hope I'm not jinxing Paul Rudd, like I did to James Karen. Say, here's a swell idea: I'm gonna shut up now.

After the destruction of the Norwegian chopper the members of the US team fly to the Norwegian base, only to discover them all dead or missing. They do find the remains of a strange creature the Norwegians burned. The Americans take it to their base and deduce that it is an alien life form. Af
