Terence stamp died at the age of 87. Stamp was one of our great classical actors, best known to Dorks like me as General Zod in the first two Superman Movies. Also gave a trailblazing performance Adventures of Priscilla, the queen of the desert and order the screen in The lime. There are dozens on dozens of roles you could remove from a stamp career to give him the spotlight. No one can argue that he was not a world -class thespian who brought Gravitas, charisma, and professionalism to the world of acting.

But, I’m a weirdo who likes and watches Weirdo movies. When Donald Sutherland died, the first movie I thought was the sci-fi Horror cheese cheese Virus. Similarly, when I read the news of Terence Stamp, the very first film that popped into my head was a murderer flic ape called Contact.

Terence Stamp and his Butler Chimpanzee who loves fire, loop

Link In the 1986 film by director Richard Franklin (Psycho ii) Where Terence Stamp plays Dr. Steven Phillip, Professor of Kooky who has grown up with a chimpanzee called Link. Link was part of a circus act run by Phillip’s parents where the addictive APE would do amazing tricks with games and fire. After the circus, Link became a servant of Phillip as the teacher began to experiment with apes and their intelligent connection with humans.

Most of the film does not actually focus on Terence Stamp character. Link Centralized around Jane Chase (Elizabeth Shue), a student who is invited to be Phillip’s assistant over the summer. She is tasked with caring for the various apes and assisting with the experiments. However, Dr. Phillip disappears for a while and leaves Jane at the helm. It also looks like Link takes too much affection for her, or maybe he’s trying to get rid of her?

While Terence Stamp does not get a ton of screen time in Link. It’s proof why a stamp was such a dear presence in movies: he always went in, even in a murderer tsimpl movie.

Professionals never look down on genre

The fact that Terence stamp did not call in his performance or treat Link As it was under her acting talking to his highly regarded status. The fact that the man is likely to be remembered by most people as comic book supervisor speaks to the devotion he brought to that kind of role. Certainly, Terence took stamp roles he didn’t like them, but you couldn’t say when he came to put the job at work.

I am delighted that stamp Terence in a movie as Link. It shows that no matter how absurd, trashy or utterly disgraceful that a genre project could be, professional actors give him as much depth and care as any dramatic role. Stamp itself understood that about the genre as far back as 1965 when he starred in the adaptation of The collector. That dark, winding thriller would help drive them into a stardom, and probably led to appeared in the Federico Fellini adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s Toby dammit.

As you can see, Terence Stamp was someone who appreciated the price of genre as Link. He was a true arts appreciator and all their many possibilities, including films about Killer Chimpanzee (actually played by Orangutan). His presence will be missed.
