    Frequently cast by John Carpenter.
  • Quotes
    [on Sarah Michelle Gellar and her devotion to on-the-set safety] She had "stickler" written all over her, but in a good way. Had she been cast in The Crow (1994), then Brandon Lee might still be with us now. I almost mentioned Vic Morrow and La Quatrième Dimension (1983), but SMG was only five when that came out.
