He was great in "Star Trek: Generations" (1994). Despite the large cast, his role was prominent enough and notable.

I was thinking of his role in Generations also but Blue Thunder (1983) is memorable, though most of it is spent sitting in a helicopter shooting at things.

The Limey (1999). Oops, that was Terence Stamp.

Gangster No.1 and while Halloween is not a good movie, he is doing the best acting in it, and does a new interpretation of Dr. Loomis.

Yeah, I was going to say the Halloween films. He was strong in those.

Because he takes the easiest paychecks instead of good scripts.

He was great in Halloween. Rob Zombie version.
