20. The first movie I ever saw Sam Neill in was The Omen III: The Final Conflict

It was far from his best movie, for sure, but it was so terrifying that it's hard to forget. Sam must have been in his early 30s when he played the final "Damien" as an adult.

Rest in Peace, Sam Neill ... and thanks for all the great movies!
