Irwin Keyes

Actor

Born - 16 March 1952, New York City, USA
Died - 8 July 2015

Formidable American character actor whose heavy features were distorted by the same affliction (acromegaly) that affected 1950s' horror-film star Rondo Hatton. Like Hatton, Keyes was seen mainly in horror films, although he could also play effectively for sympathy: Team-Mates (1978), Nocturna (1979), The Exterminator (1980), Friday the 13th (1980), Lovely But Deadly (1981), Zapped! (1982), Chained Heat (1983), Exterminator 2 (1984), Death Wish 4: The Crackdown (1987), Frankenstein General Hospital (1988), Disturbed (1990), Motorama (1991), Dream Lover (1993), Timemaster (1995), Asylum (1997), The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas (2000), Intolerable Cruelty (2003), House of 1000 Corpses (2003), Neighborhood Watch (2005), Careless (2007), Black Dynamite (2009), Dead Kansas (2013) and Portend (2015), his last.
