Spot on. At least he got seen in the big budget actioner Lethal Weapon, in the late eighties. That's more exposure than some cult actors get.

Love me some Tom Atkins too, Night of the Creeps was such a perfect role for him.

(BTW Love that Japanese poster for Creepshow in the 1st post!)

Cool

Rock on Tommy...(sorry), he's good in DRIVE ANGRY as well. A fan of horror and sci-fi (one of his faves is the original THING, according to wiki) Hell, he may even be a member here. I always confused him with Christopher Stone back in the day

I've loved him since i was about 8 years old. Even at that age watching him in Maniac Cop, Lethal Weapon and The Fog I just thought "this guy is so cool".

Watched Night of the Creeps last night-HMV delivered it on Saturday.
Another superb package from Eureka!
The booklet is great and shows all the various worldwide posters.
Print is flawless.The interview with Tom Atkins is great!

TOM ATKINS-LEGEND!
