English actor Donald Pleasence is best known as Dr. Sam Loomis in Halloween; he was also memorable in The Great Escape and an early James Bond movie.
The Big Picture COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Donald Pleasence is one of those classic underrated actors who some might not know by name, though they've likely seen at least one film he was featured in. Born in 1919, he started appearing in movies during the 1950s, achieving considerable success in the 1960s and '70s thanks to some high-profile roles, and continued working up until 1995, which was the year he passed away at the age of 75.
9 'The Caretaker' The Caretaker has a small cast, confined setting, and an emphasis on being a drama above all else. Given how stripped back everything is, it shouldn't be surprising to hear that The Caretaker was indeed an adaptation of a play that was originally written by famed playwright Harold Pinter .
The dark will always be scary, especially when that darkness reaches out a great distance and could be hiding untold things within it. This is something Death Line understands well and effectively utilizes to be creepy throughout. Even if it's a little simple at the end of the day, it's nevertheless effective as a horror/mystery movie.
Perhaps like Wake in Fright, it shows people in isolation gradually finding themselves becoming less in control psychologically. Donald Pleasence gets to shine as the owner of the mansion, with Cul-de-sac staying relatively engaging for its almost two-hour-long runtime thanks to the way it continues to explore - and throw into chaos - the strange dynamics between the principal characters in the film.
4 'Fantastic Voyage' There's no shortage of movies out there about people shrinking down dramatically, but few are quite as iconic as Fantastic Voyage. And your movie does have to be good, if you're going to stick an expressive and undeniably positive word like "Fantastic" in the title.
2 'The Great Escape' The Great Escape is one of the best movies of the 1960s, telling a large-scale and consistently exciting story about breaking out of a German prisoner-of-war camp during World War II. It has an utterly amazing cast, too, with the likes of Steve McQueen, Richard Attenborough, Charles Bronson, James Coburn, David McCallum, and of course Donald Pleasence all appearing throughout.
