Well, guess I'll spend the night watching OG Predator, Action Jackson and Rocky. RIP Big C. Thanks for the memories. If you look close you'll see him in Close Encounters Of the 3rd Kind (1977, year I was born) He was in Friday Foster with Pam Grier's fine ass, Bucktown (1975) fuckin Magnum Force with Eastwood in '73, he had a stint on Tour Of Duty that Vietnam War show that came out in '87, did a few episodes of In The Heat of The Night as Chief Hampton Forbes, he did Sundown In '81 with Charles Bronson & Lee Marvin, Force 10 From Navarone in fuckin 1978 with Harrison Ford, Starsky & Hutch back in 1975 and a shit ton of other roles. I'm glad he died in his sleep, rest easy Big C and thanks man.
