Gaunt and intense, you can always rely on Combs to deliver a truly compelling performance. Be it a great film, a crap film, as a major character, or just doing a cameo, Jeffrey Combs commands the screen whenever he appears.
How could we not love a guy who has played in no less than four H.P. Lovecraft-based films? Jeffrey Combs has shined in great Poe adaptations and shitty Full Mooon productions alike. Although he had been working as an actor on stage and in film for several years, Jeffrey landed his first major role in Stewart Gordon's cult classic Re-Animator. As the maniacal genius Herbert West, Combs blessed the cinematic world with the prototypical intensity that would mark all of his performances. He would return to the Herbert west once more in the severely underrated sequel, Bride of Re-Animator.
