RIP Sid Haig

#1 Post by SpacemanSpiff » Mon Sep 23, 2019 6:33 am

Mostly known for his work on Rob Zombie movies as Captain Spaulding. Age 80.

Dating myself, I remember him more for two lesser roles. One was as the baddie Dragos in Filmation's Jason of Star Command Saturday morning series, and as a minor role as a gangster-type in Diamonds are Forever

He's the one to the right of Sean Connery.

I'd forgotten about this -- he was in one of the King Tut episodes of the Adam West Batman as the Royal Apothecary.

Sid Haig was one of the great B-movie villains. He could act as creepy as he looked which made him a natural for horror films. Last week, Fathom Events featured a showing of the latest Rob Zombie film in which he reprised his Captain Spaulding character in what was apparently a cameo. I was hoping it would get a regular play but it didn't.
