Who is the spookiest actor?

[Tonguez]

Vincent Price of course (hey Sunday Night Horrors as a child always had Vincent Price)

(Christopher Lee was too debonair to be creepy imho whereas Vincent had that freaky eyebrow going on!!!)

Max Schreck (Nosferatu) is close, even the name is creepy

Chris Walken is brilliant, intense but not really creepy

Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka gave me the creeps too

 

[Hand of Evil]

Julian Sands - Warlock movies and some others.

 

[Wormwood]

Keanu Reeves is the most frightening actor I've ever seen. I dare you to watch him in Dracula or Point Break and maintain a belief in a rational, ordered universe.

He's Cthulhu with a learning disability.

 

[Klaus]

Christopher Walken, hands down. Just watch the Simpsons episode where he's reading children stories for proof!

Even the Fatboy Slim video "Weapon of Choice" is creepy with him!

Michael Berryman

You've seen him, you probably just don't know his name. He's been in a lot of horror movies.

 

[Starman]

I can't look at Robert Blake without shivering after seeing him in Lost Highway.

More references, links, or pictures please! I'm terrible with names.

Of course, my wife would say that I'm terrible with faces too ("hey, is that the guy from....?" "No dear."). The more connections you can make for me the better.

For me the difficulty is separating the person from the role or movie.

Guess I'll say Vincent Price - I think he could spook me out without too much trouble even if he was a nameless nobody that I merely bumped into going around a corner.

Christopher Walken

Jack Nicholson

Christopher Lloyd

Tim Curry

Anthony Hopkins

Those are some pictures of the actors on my list.

[Renton]

Julian Beck (Kane) from Poltergeist 2. This guy really creeped me out as a youngster.

 

[Aeson]

Ben Foster

You should see him in Hostage.

Julian Beck. If I saw this guy in the street, I would run the other way.
