Actor David Soul passed away at 80. Soul had a couple of notable turns in the fantastic movie genre. Soul had the lead in one of my favorite, depressing movies, “World War III” (1982). The only bleaker end to a movie can probably be found in “The Thing” (1982). Hmmm. Both released in 1982. Obviously, a very good year! I think I posted about “WW3”, years past. Look it up and catch the flick.

The clip included below is from the TV mini-series of Stephen King’s “‘Salem’s Lot” (1979). Soul gives a credible performance as a writer who stumbles upon a cursed house and some of the very unpleasant characters which inhabit it. Soul soon finds himself swapping his profession from scribe to vampire killer. Probably not a preferred career choice. Pretty harrowing final scene in this one, too.

So long, David.
