Great in Scarecrow (freaked me out when he tried to rape Pacino), Seven-Ups and was really creepy as an amputee killing cabbies in an episode of Starsky and Hutch. And always sported that beautiful blonde coif! WILL BE MISSED! *Humans are such easy prey!*

Heard the news while listening to Coast to Coast Am last night and it evoked a host of memories of the videotape age and Richard's contribution to many of those I watched. Re: Scarecrow. Absolutely frightening performance. Almost up there with them rednecks from Deliverance. RIP Mr. Lynch. Last Edited By: Mora Jun 21 12 10:54 AM. Edited 1 times.

I wandered over to an empty part of the stage, where they had the mock-up of the super helicopter interior. Richard Lynch, playing that week's villain walked over to look at the prop too. I didn't acknowledge that I recognized him, we were just two gadget geeks pointing out the cool stuff on the set. He was a genuinely nice guy. After a few minutes, the tour guide told me that Mr. Farentino had asked the visitors to leave the set. Lynch looked down, shook his head and laughed. I always remembered him for being real. R.I.P.

I said "Richard Lynch, likely" and came off as a canny guy. Thanks, Mr. Lynch.

After a little digging I found out that he had lit himself on fire in Central Park behind the Metropolitan Museum of Art during an LSD trip in 1967! I wonder what it must of been like to have to wear all that burn make-up over your real burn scars for BAD DREAMS?

But it was THE SEVEN UPS in which he really registered with me. As often happens, once actors get my attention they keep it. A rare actor who can impart a sense of total unpredictability in a screen role.

He did have a look of several famous folk, like Rutgar Hauer, and I used to say David Rasche was "other Cromwell" (Lynch played Titus Cromwell in "The Sword and the Sorcerer").

Well, that's an odd one. I used to confuse Lynch with an English actor whom I cannot remember the name of, but who I used to confuse with Jeremy Kemp. But after a few seconds of screen time my confusion would clear.
