The last film Dan O'Herlihy made was "Halloween III: The Season of the
Witch".  He played the crazed mask-manufacturer who planned to unloose
chaotic Druid terror on an unsuspecting populace.  He was much better
in "Seconds", a science fiction film made in the Sixties.  This film
almost never receives any attention, which is a pity.  It's a serious
science fiction film based on the premise that there are a bunch of
folks out there who can, for a price, totally alter your appearance.
Not just a little plastic surgery, but turning middle aged Dan O'Herlihy
to young Rock Hudson, voice and all.  Of course, they have a few demands
which they place on their clients...  Anyway, Dan O'Herlihy was excellent
in this film as a middle aged man looking for a way out of a life he 
hated.  O'Herlihy doesn't do much film work; I'm given to understand that
he's more active on the stage.
