Was Kwan Hi Lim the most sinister-looking actor ever?


Kwan Hi Lim had (I believe) the most appearances on Hawaii Five-O by any actor that was not a cast member. Usually he was cast as a villain.

He was a good guy police officer in Magnum, P.I.

He is one of the most sinister and evil-looking men I have ever seen. LOL I just read he was an attorney and later a judge in Hawaii.

He was always good in villainous roles.

He sort of looks like the kind of actor who would be a perfect villain for all those Charlie Chan movies from back in the 1940's. Plus he had a unique sounding voice that indicated a droll sense of humor. Aside from that he was always my favorite character actor from Hawaii 5-0. It was always a treat when he played a rare good guy role. In The Friends of Joey Kalima ep he looked like he had gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar for a change of pace, pouting all over the place!
