I was watching TV the other day and the 1992 movie
Buffy the Vampire Slayer came on and I said "What the hell", and decided to watch it. The funny thing is, while I was watching, I noticed a lot of recognizable actors in this movie who had small parts and decided to make another fun list. (Side note - I heard an interview with the Buffy TV show creator,
Joss Whedon, that when he wrote the Buffy movie, the studio didn't think anything would come of this movie and they granted him the rights to Buffy which he promptly turned into bundles of cash.)
- David Arquette - What exactly is David famous for? The Scream movies? Eight Legged Freaks? Nope, it's because he somehow bagged Courtney Cox during her prime. Otherwise, this guy is pretty worthless when you think about it.
- Hillary Swank - Yup, the two-time Academy Award winner was in this movie and she played Buffy's bitchy airhead friend. She's had a pretty good career since this movie as long as you forget that she played the title character in the terrible sequel, The Next Karate Kid.
- Paul Reubens - Pee Wee Fucking Herman! Did you know that he also played The Penguin's father in Batman Returns? Watch it again, he is only in the beginning and he has no lines.
- Rutger Hauer - This is a name most people are not sure who he is, but he has played some pretty big roles in his life. He was the main replicant that Han Solo was hunting in Blade Runner. Not too shabby. He was the bad guy in this movie and he nailed it with an awesome porn 'stache.
- Stephen Root - You may not know this guy based on his name, but if I said "You have my stapler", you would know who I was talking about. Office Space, still underrated to this day.
- Thomas Jane - He played the title role in that stupid Punisher movie with John Travolta and also played the well-endowed male prostitute in the HBO show Hung. In this movie, he played Luke Perry's co-worker and is almost unrecognizable.
- Ben Affleck - Oh yeah, Ben Affleck is in this movie. This role was even before his classic role in Dazed and Confused. He played a basketball player and is only on screen for about three seconds, but does have one line.
