this is Sean Penn's brother. he was also probably most known from Reservoir Dogs and my favorite Too Wong Foo... with Patrick Swayze and Wesley Snipes -- Sherriff Dullard.

man things are just spinning. just last week both Shelley Winters AND Anthony Franciosa who were married to each other at one point and died days apart.

we're losing too much talent too fast, too soon.

WOW!

I wonder what happened?
I've always liked his supporting roles in movies that he's been in.. one in particular was his role as Sean Penn's brother / CHristopher Walken's son in "At Close Range".

RIP buddy.

At Close Range is on cable this month. I just saw Too Wong Foo a couple of weeks ago on cable late one night. Sad to hear this. His new movie Darwin Awards looks funny. I will see it when it comes out.

He reminds you of a neighborhood friend. A good guy you would have fun hanging out with.

R.I.P.

I remember him from an early 90's martial arts film called "Best of the Best". One of the few movies which brought a tear to my eye.

Sad to see him go at such a young age too.

I recall few days ago police were waiting on toxicity test results to determine if it was drug induced. Anyone ever hear what the results were on that?
