Just watched a mediocre effort of his last night. “Outland” a sci-fi version Of High Noon. Well not really. He played O’Niel (sometimes O’Neil) a Marshall on the mining colony on the moon Io. Forgettable.

I’m quite familiar with that one. I agree. Forgettable. However, I’ve been looking for it on streaming sources and have yet to find it. Honestly, I suspect that, other than the quality of the sp3ecial effects, it’s got a better story than the latest Star Wars movies. But I could be wrong. Your exposure is more recent.

Outland was a pretty shoddy flick, but he was still very Connery-ish in it.

Yep, he was a professional actor and, like all of them, took some clunker roles to keep working and food on the table.

Here is another one of those, 1974's "Zardoz"! I think that he would have preferred the kilt here! One year later he starred in "The Wind and the Lion" AND "The Man who would be King"!
