      One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Brad received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of the suicidal teen asylum inmate Billy Bibbit.

    Brad starred in the movie "Dune", directed by _____________ ?Brad Dourif

      David Lynch. Brad played the odd character Peter De Vries of the House of Harkkonen. Actually, every character in this movie was odd.

    Brad starred in the movie _________ , which is known as one of the biggest flops in movie history? Brad Dourif

      Heaven's Gate. Brad played Mr. Eggleston in this three hour plus movie based on the 19th century Johnson County, Wyoming wars. This movie was so bad, it was pulled from the theaters at just about the same time it was released in 1980. It has reached cult status among some fans though.

    What is the name of this film, in which Brad starred: a horror movie about a possessed doll that started a run of sequels?Brad Dourif

      Child's Play. Brad played serial killer Charles Lee Ray, who is killed and then "reborn" inside Chucky the doll. This enables him to continue his killing ways. Brad actually played the character onscreen for only a short while in the movie, and then did the voiceover for the doll for the rest of the movie. Child's Play has had 3 sequels, and Brad has done the voice of Chucky in all of them. But none of the sequels were as good as the original, which was released in 1988.

    Brad appeared in an edition of which classic sci fi movie series? Brad Dourif

      Alien. Brad played the mad scientist Dr. Gediman in "Alien:Resurrection" (1997). He had a bizarre fondness for the xenomorphs, the monsters featured in all 4 movies. He particularly adored the alien/human hybrid which personally offed him late in the movie.

    Are you afraid to watch scary movies? Well, Dourif has appeared in a number of more "mainstream" movies too. He played a southern deputy in which movie, based on an actual historical incident?Brad Dourif

      Mississippi Burning. Brad played Deputy Clinton Bell in this film about the murder of three civil rights workers in 1964 Mississippi.

    Maybe you don't watch movies and prefer to watch television shows. Brad played mass murderer Luther Lee Boggs in which popular series? Brad Dourif

      The X-Files. The psychic Luther Lee Boggs was on death row for murdering his entire family. He promised FBI Agent Dana Scully that he would give her a message from her recently deceased father if she got his sentence commuted. She didn't do it for him, so she never got the message. The interesting thing about this episode is that the usually sceptical Scully was the believer, and the usually believing Mulder thought Boggs was a fake. This episode was aired during the X-Files' first season in 1994.

He also guest starred in another of my all time favorite shows, Babylon 5, playing what else, but a former serial killer who had been caught and then had his memories erased. Aside from the sci fi shows, he also appeared on "The Equalizer", "Spenser: For Hire", "Murder, She Wrote", "The Magnificent Seven", and several others.
