I thought he was great in the My Bloody Valentine remake. The movie itself is actually very good IMO.

This actor should be a lot more famous by now, he's a great actor. A natural. I'm a fan of Tom Atkins myself...

Too true, particularly as Tom's likeable performance is the best thing about the movie. |

I liked Tom Atkins in HALLOWEEN 3 too, a film that I didn't like at all when I was younger, but I really like the film now. It must of been the lack of Michael Myer's.... |

You're right about Chattaway's score, though I still think his masterpiece is the music to "Maniac". "Maniac Cop" is allright, but I always felt it's not quite as good as it could have been, not only because of Tom Atkin's untimely exit (I like a surprise or two, but not when they concern a film's most likeable character). He has a pretty thankless role in "Lethal Weapon", though his "confession scene" is one of the film's highlights. I liked his turn in "My Bloody Valentine 3D" too, particularly his scenes with Kevin Tighe. Good to see character actors like these in modern slashers- though they'd deserve more screen time. |

"What is this? A homicide or a bad B-movie?" A fine performer and vastly underrated imo. |

Every one of his lines in NOTC is a classic. "Well well well, if it isn't spanky and alfalfa" "Zombies, exploding heads, creepy-crawlies... and a date for the formal. This is classic, Spanky"
