Keith David is one of my favourite actors.
The Thing, Gargoyles, They live etc. All brilliant. He also has a voice that would calm Angels and grind demons.
Groovy.
🏠💀 Welcome to Steve Miner's HOUSE (1985), a wonderfully bizarre mix of haunted-house horror, dark comedy, monsters, nightmares, and supernatural madness. Sometimes the scariest thing about a house is what lies beyond it.
Sammy Davis Jr. was only 7 years old here.
Seven. And he already owned the stage.
This was 1933, in Rufus Jones for President, Sammy's first appearance on film, performing alongside the legendary Ethel Waters.
He'd already been performing with his father and Will Mastin, and even at seven, the timing, confidence and stage presence were already there.
Sammy would become one of the great all-around entertainers of his generation — singer, dancer, actor, comedian and eventually a member of the Rat Pack.
But here, none of that had happened yet.
You're watching him before the world knew who he was.
Is this your first time seeing Sammy Davis Jr. this young?
