Sad news as Rogue One, Emmerdale and Crossroads actor Richard Franklin has passed away. He was 87, and leaves behind a body of work that most famously includes a Pertwee-era stint with the 3rd Doctor as Captain Mike Yates. https://twitter.com/PlanetFranklin/status/1739348573702213778 The long-time stage actor made his TV debut in a 1966 episode of the British series Dixon of Dock Green, before his screen breakout in a nine-episode run of ITV soap Crossroads. He would go on to appear in The Doctors, Little Women mini-series, and The Borgias in one-off appearances, alongside more recent film appearances, including in 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. But he would be best known for his turn as a regular on Emmerdale Farm, where he portrayed Denis Rigg for two years. He would also appear as Captain Mike Yates of UNIT in Doctor Who from 1971 to 1974 during Pertwee’s run, a character he would return to again and again for Doctor Who: Dimensions in Time and other spin-off media.

I feel like playing games tonight, so let's start with the Roadgames..... Released in 1981 Roadgames is a horror/thriller which tells of a truckdriver, hitchhiker and a pet dingo working together to track down a serial killer who butchers woman and abandons their cut up bodies on the highways. At its time its was the most expensive Australian movie made. Directed by Richard Franklin who would go onto direct psycho 2. Roadgames is a surprisingly light thriller despite its darker premise I liked this movie, it was lighthearted thriller with interesting characters. Stacy Keach steals the show as Quid, the protagonist. He offers a lot of exposition and his dialogue is good and he carries the movie effortlessly. Co starring Jamie Lee Curtis as the hitchhiker. She is a good fit in the film, despite top billing she didn't have the largest part but chews the scenery when she does. I loved the imagery in the movie how the killers van seems to follow them as they hunt him There are lighthearted moments which bring almost a surreal comedy to the mix. This is a gory film or a total dark film. It keeps it light and the film works well as a good thriller I am giving it a 7.5/10 Viewer beware....... . Its a long road for a game ~mr hare #roadgames #roadgames1981 #horror #horrorfans #horrorfansworldwide #thriller #thrillermovie #Australian #australianhorror #trucker #stacykeach #jamieleecurtis #jamieleecurtisfilms #finalgirl #horrorjunkie #horrormad #review #moviereviewer #movie #1980shorror #richardfranklin #richardfranklinmovie https://www.instagram.com/p/CJt2N1KlG-0/?igshid=1ajdnsi555t54
