Yeah, way too many credits to list. He was very much a distinctive actor. Even if you didn't know his name you'd know you'd seen him before.

RIP Arjen Rudd: no more diplomatic immunity.

I think he would have been surprised to know that Lethal Weapon 2 was a huge box office success in South Africa.

Looking him up, his first professional appearance as an actor was on stage in 1945 and his last role before retiring was in 2014!  The guy had a career that lasted 69 years!  Not too shabby.

He was also in a Pet Shop Boys music video.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
