Two of my favorite things would have had come together if this movie, in some wierd space-time paradox, would have been made.
KARNOV, is of course the awesome NES and Arcade game many remember. Sure, it was hard, but entertaining and unforgettable. Karnov is everybody's favorite firebreathing russian strongman!!! Karnov would have made a kickass movie! So if I personally, as big fan of Karnov, had to choose an actor, and a director, I would have to break the rules. An actor who has sadly past on, and a director who is still roaming the movie industry.
Tor Johnson, who many remember as the snarling Lobo, and Zombie Inspector Clay from Ed Wood's glorious movies, would be my choice for the role of Karnov. The man was strong as hell, and he could actually act, if someone would just give him the spotlight. There is a wonderful scene in "Bride of the Monster", in wich Tor's eyes say more than any epic movie line.
So here is my tribute, to you Tor, where ever you are, and to Karnov, whom I miss in the game industry, and hope to return someday.
Tor Johnson as Karnov just became my favorite casting idea for a video game character ever. The right size, hair style, strength and could look intimidating as hell. If only it could happen for real.
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. Hehe, I'm so happy that you liked my idea! I love both Karnov and Tor very much, and this film would have been the perfect tribute for both of them, but I guess this poster is also pretty good. People who say Tor was a bad actor, dont really know the true Tor Johnson. Just watch his eyes in "Bride of the Monster", the scene where Bela fries the first patient. Tor's eyes are amazing. Karnov would have been the perfect part for him. As Karnov would have said:
No problem I'd just seen Plan 9 a few weeks ago and I thought Tor was even good at playing the inspector. You could tell he was the kind of guy that could've done so much more.
When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
