Why he might be annoying:

    He never achieved widespread fame.
    His only Broadway role lasted a mere week.
    He was an Irishman who often played Irish characters (the irony!).
    He appeared in 'Halloween III,' which many fans consider the worst of the series.
    A once prominent actor, his final performances were in sci-fi and horror flicks.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was nominated for an Oscar for his performance in 'Robinson Crusoe.'
    Despite being a former Oscar nominee, his death received little attention.
    He remained married to the same woman for 60 years.
    He gained a following for playing the lizard-like Grig in 'The Last Starfighter.'
    He recorded some poetry.
