Title: Death of a B movie actor -- Post by: peter johnson on August 12, 2008, 05:02:26 PM Jeffrey J. Smith, who was Dawg the Satan's Onion opposite me in "ROBO-C.H.I.C.", died this morning of a heart attack. He was only 54.
He also acted in numerous TV commercials, "Ah! Marie!", a made-for-Italian-TV epic shot in Denver, Colorado, and starred in Pay-per-View's "Lock and Load". In recent years, he had stopped acting & had instead gone to selling books full-time through Amazon.com. I was lucky to see him for the last time a week ago when he came to see me in "Chimes At Midnight". He leaves a young son, who I assume will now be raised by his mother -- they had separated in recent years, with Jeff getting custody. Life is excruciatingly short -- don't put off doing something you've been meaning to for awhile . . . peter johnson aka Gimp the Satan's Onion.

My best to his son if you run into the young man again.
