He never achieved widespread fame.
His only Broadway role lasted a mere week.
He was an Irishman who often played Irish characters (the irony!).
He appeared in 'Halloween III,' which many fans consider the worst of the series.
A once prominent actor, his final performances were in sci-fi and horror flicks.

He gained a following for playing the lizard-like Grig in 'The Last Starfighter.'
He recorded some poetry.
