Notable Actors

[Mr. Blonde]

I've created this thread to display various actors/actresses I feel are worth noting, and who sometimes may be overlooked. Perhaps this will spur discussion. I hope so. Enjoy.


For the first one I've decided to showcase the actor Michael Parks whom is far from a household name. In fact I bet very few of you even know whom I'm speaking of. Parks is one of the finest character actors of his day, but unfortunately he has been overlooked by a majority of hollywood producers and directors. Quentin Tarantino calls Parks, "The most underrated actor alive today".

Michael Parks also played as Sheriff Earl McGraw in the same film. He first played that same roll in From Dusk til Dawn and reprised it again in Planet Terror and Death Proof.

The man has incredible range and versatility; it's a real shame people are mostly unware of his work.
