With everyone still busy mourning Hunter S., this guy got forgotten. Most would probably recognize him as "The Old Man," CEO of OCP from ROBOCOP and ROBOCOP 2. (AKA The guy who was kinda nice in the first movie but really became and asshole in the second one.)

Other credits include Grig in THE LAST STARFIGHTER and Colonel Cochran in HALLOWEEN 3: THE FAR SIDE OF THE WORLD. He was also nominated for Best Actor at the 1955 Oscars for THE ADVENTURES OF ROBINSON CRUSOE (which he lost to Marlon Brando).

He didn't get forgotten. There was a thread about a week ago about him. Granted, it was difficult to know what the hell was being disscussed from the title and first post of said thread.

My bad. I scanned for any threads about this, but I was looking for "Dan O'Herlihy" in the subject title.
