Answer: Vincent Price

Vincent Price died in 1993 at the age of 82. While he eventually became totally associated with horror films, his earlier work was much more diverse. In fact, in 1944 he was Oscar nominated for his work in "Laura". In real life he was a very cultured fellow, quite the art collector and wine connoisseur. His recognizable voice has been heard since his death-notably in a film called "Arabian Nights" in 1995 and, of course, in Michael Jackson's "Thriller" video. But the last time he actually appeared, physically, on screen was in "Scissorhands".
