Yeah he was great in that movie, I loved his cowboy boots but time has really taken its toll on him and with the plastic surgery and the botox he looks well ****ed about.

Spuns not a bad movie but I think it was trying too hard to be a bit like Requiem for a Dream.

It was trying to hard to shock.

I liked quite a few of the performances and i'll keep an eye on the director, but Spun isn't a film i'll go back to in a hurry. Very little depth.

Music was great though.

And the beating off... Was strange...

He was excellent in Animal Factory.
He was one of my favorites years ago, Angel Heart was fantastic.
Hopefully he'll keep taking decent roles, and get back near the top.
