Silver Surfer, Conan, Lincoln-16, Erox, Krudge, Commando Rangers, Phantom Falcons, Hap hopper, Invaders From Mars, Dick Tracy.

It's always nice to see an actor who appears in the same movie in different eras. Today Jimmy Hunt appears both in the 1953 and the 1986 version of Invaders From Mars, first as the boy astronomer and then as the police chief.


Enjoy !!!
