Re: Craziest Walken Role
Wed, October 15, 2003 - 4:49 PMIn "New Rose Hotel", because he has fuckloads of edge and he talks about it all the time and he just wants to rip people to shreds.
Or the brother in "Annie Hall". But that's kind of an obvious one.
Or maybe "The Continental". I don't think I'd want him in my spare bedroom.
Of course, in "The Country Bears", he's real good, too. But not all that scary. -

Wed, October 15, 2003 - 4:58 PMI kind of liked how in "Suicide Kings" he got his finger cut off and acted like it was just a hangnail. It wasn't a very good flick, actually, but the level of tension he created just thinking that if they ever let him get untied from that chair he was going to make soup from their brains was amazing. -

Re: Craziest Walken Role
Wed, October 15, 2003 - 4:52 PMI'd like to point out that Walken has had about 100 roles so far:
us.imdb.com/name/nm0000686/
Also, I'd like to point out that I'm glad I never saw Christopher Walken as "Puss" in "Puss in Boots":
us.imdb.com/title/tt0177606/
Because then my skull would fold in on itself.

Re: Craziest Walken Role
Tue, October 21, 2003 - 3:56 AMOK, so, on the plane from Montreal to Geneva I saw this movie called "Plots with a View":
us.imdb.com/title/tt0298504/
The deal is that there's this Walter Mitty-like mortician in this little town in Englund. Walken plays a fast-talking American competitor named Frank Featherbed who opens another mortuary and uses aggressive marketing tactics to try and put Our Hero out of business.
Or whatever. The cool part is that there's Walken. And then there's Walken in a giant bunny suit with a pompadour, so he looks really scary close to a giant Oompa Loompa. And also that there's Walken.
Walken!

Thu, November 20, 2003 - 4:49 PManother favorite is Joe Dirt.
even though the movie is downright terrible, Walken saves it in multiple scenes. The best is...
"you're talkin' to me all wrong. You're using the wrong tone. You do it again, and I'll stab you in the face with a soldering iron." -

Re: Craziest Walken Role
Sun, February 22, 2004 - 7:35 PMHow about Pulp Fiction...you know, when he describes the thing with the watch? tick tock tick tock. And I guess The Deer Hunter character, the role that made millions of women fall in love with him (well, at least one).

Re: Craziest Walken Role
Tue, April 20, 2004 - 11:40 AMfor me, it's when he's a junkie in vietnam, in the last part of the deer hunter. he was so fucking creepy. and the look of surprise on his face, at the final moment when the hammer goes down on a live round and he blows his brains out. that image will be with me forever.

Re: Craziest Walken Role
Tue, November 30, 2004 - 3:55 AMI was pretty creeped out by his role as the elder vampire in "The Addiction." I wouldn't have wanted to meet that guy in real life, vampire or not.
