28. Spontaneous Combustion (1990)

Upon reading this fellow’s (Brad Dourif) IMDB page I was real surprised to have found him in so many films and TV shows as I was surprised to find he did more than the meager 2 shows I’ve seen him in. (Especially surprised to find out he did the voice of Chucky)

Seems he has that sort of history, playing unstable madmen type characters. I remember him from 2 prominent (laugh if you want) Sci Fi series. He played crewman Lon Suder in ST: Voyager for three episodes; a betazoid who felt nothing at all and turned out to be a homicidal ‘numb’ type.

He also played Brother Edward (Aka Charlie) in Babylon 5; a convicted serial-murderer who was sentenced to ‘Death of Personality’ and ended up with his mind wiped, serving as a Monk who was part of an Order that lived on the station.

Course I look through his list and see a lot of roles he’s been in that I haven’t even heard of.

Thanks for this one James Just finding out more about that actor made the review worthwhile, apart from your usual cool presentation ... See all content Hide content

The movie seems to be a crappier version of “Firewalker” but I have to give you right on the great expressions on that guys face. He is explosive!

To all who say there is no monster in this movie. Is a man who is basically a walking bomb not a monster? Is a man who can set you on fire through the FREAKIN TELEPHONE not a monster? What are your standards of a monster?

Tobe Hooper is the MAN! I haven’t seen this one though, definitely gonna add it to the Netflix queue.

Dourif’s greatest performance maybe ever is in Zombie’s Halloween 2. I suggest everyone check it out.

James, when I try to view this video, I get to the part where you say ‘he takes on spontaneous combustion’, and suddenly it freezes. If I hit play again, it takes me to a review of a Star Trek movie.

Just an FYI, in case this problem has suddenly occurred.
