BACK WIT YA COUNTREE BOY, YA DOO YA DOOTI ?


Never play dominoes with Screwface, else you will be smashed in the face with a broken table leg ! Basil Wallace's performance doesnt so much chew the scenery as inhale it, i feel its one of the truly great performances of the latter half of the 20th century.
Many actors can roar and roll their eyes (ref: M Gibson school of over acting beyond the call of logic), but few can combine the two, whilst still conveying a sensitive, drug addled, Voodoo ranting, phsycopath.
I understand his next role was in a production of Chekov's The Cherry Orchard, where he decapitated 2 and maimed 3.

I was sure that Mr. Wallace had vanished into obscurity, but he turned up in a good role in the recent 'Blood Diamond,' where he played a saint-like fellow who was helping orphaned children in war-ravaged Sierra Leone. Interestingly, the song that played over the end credits of that movie featured Screwface's immortal line, "Everybody want heaven, nobody want dead" in the chorus. Coincidence or tribute? You decide.

Now SEAGAL doing Chekov, that would be drama!

Yep, that's him. He hasn't changed a bit since 1990, has he?
