Vincent Schiavelli Passes Away

Weird Dude

I had no idea what this guy’s name was until I found out that he passed away today. I remember watching this dude in movies and thinking that he was one weird dude. Easy to be typecasted for roles that he played. Here are some movies that he was in:

Ghost (The subway ghost telling Patrick Swayze to “get off my train!”)
Fast Times at Ridgemont High (Mr. Vargas, the science teacher)
Batman Returns (the organ grinder)
Bride of Boogedy (Lazarus)

He was only 57 and died of lung cancer. Now we have to find another droopy-eyed person to play those weird roles. Any suggestions?

  3. You still got Garland ‘The Marietta Mangler’ Greene (Steve Buscemi).
    From Con Air he seems to play and good scary dude but unfortunately
    he lacks the droopness in his eyes that Mr. Schiavelli had. Oh and
    don’t forget the infamous Ben Stein. Although not so droopy his infamous
    Monotone makes up for it.
