Damn, RIP. One of the legends.

I'll have to watch Almost Human and Four of the Apocalypse again.

Sad news. Milian was great, a true firebrand, from his westerns all'italiana, through the poliziesco pictures and the arthouse films and on to work in the US such as CAT CHASER and OZ.

I think he was to reprise Cuchillo in Castellari's planned KEOMA sequel, alongside Franco Nero. That would have been something to see.

I was really hoping that Keoma sequel would happen and seeing him in one more great role. R.I.P. to one of the giants.

A brilliant actor who could play heavies like no other. I do have a hard time deciding which is better, his role in Almost Human or Four of the Apocalypse. Both really showcased his range with Giulio being a raving lunatic and Chaco a more subdued psychopath yet both were equally terrifying.

I'm mainly a horror film collector, but I really enjoy watching his movies. He has such a compelling presence. I just watched THE CYNIC, THE RAT AND THE FIST 2 days ago, and I've had SYNDICATE SADISTS on pre-order for a while (the release date is the 27th). Great life, RIP in the next one...

Watching his films, you would think the man was almost invincible. A harsh reminder that age catches up with everyone. RIP Tomas Milian. One serious Badass of Italian cinema.
