Milton Dammers from The Frighteners. If you havn't seen the movie...then you probably won't get it, but I'll exlplain anyway. He's a special agent that goes undercover to get information on cults and sects, by joining them. But they never give him any therapy or time to recover from the trauma. So he's basically gone a little crazy after 20 years on the job. So because he is so nutso, he can't take women yelling or screaming. (why? we don't know, but probably something with the cults he joined) So he freaks anytime a women yells at him, this is him at his breaking point. This was just a quick little cartoonie sketch I did, didn't take long. Just a quick little thing for fun.
Yes, I was hoping people could tell it was him. The colors were fairly easy, lots of grey and black.Plus I rememberd to make them a bit lighter while working in photoshop, and it worked out perfectly! Thanks for the comment!!

"We shall inhabit this land and we shall call it...this land."
I suggest buying the movie on DVD. Try to get the Directors Cut! the original release cut some scenes with Jeffrey. I think they really added more to the character, and they shouldn't have been taken out, but when the movie was previewd people jumped to conclusions and didn't "understand" or listen to what the character was saying. Since you're a Jeffrey Combs fan, I highly recomend this movie.

"We shall inhabit this land and we shall call it...this land."
OMG HAHA! I don't know how I missed this!
I abso-bally-lutely LOVE The Frighteners! I watched it a couple of nights ago after my DVD version of it arrived...*spazzes out like Dammers.*
The extra little scenes really add to the film, and there are parts that I now understand that I didn't when I saw my VHS version!
Like that bit when Frank stops "believing", all became clear...in the VHS version Cyrus and Stuart materialise in front of Frank, when they would normally walk through the door...yep, the DVD cleared up all the loose ends!
As for Dammers...he's PERFECT! Jeffrey really did a wonderful job! He deserved an Oscar for his acting... You caught his craziness!
Haha, lol...love his "Nnnnnnaaagggghhhh screaming" expression!
OMG long comment...ah well...hope ye don't mind!

Oh yeah the directors cut of the frighteners SO much better than the original. Dammers is the best character in that movie, and Jeff like usual so committed! In the VHS version Dammers just appears to be a complete psycho, I can't believe they cut the extra footage of him when he's in the car with Lucy. It explained what the hell his problem is, and you feel a bit sympathetic because it's not his fault he's such a complete weirdo. In behind the scenes, I'm not sure what section...but they explain why that section was cut...because when people saw the swatstica (sp?) they automatically thought he was a nazi and didn't listen to what he was saying!!!
if you get a chance watch some of the behind the scenes stuff. It's reaaaally long, so I just skipped around, but the interview with Jeff is great! and some funny bloopers. thanks for the fav and the comment!

Awww, no probs!
Yes, I think I'm all set to watch the extras tomorrow!
For a mostly unkown actor, especially back then, Jeff actually outstripped Michael, who was an A-list actor, which is surprising! Mike gave it his all as always, but he's nothing like Combs, who really is fantasic and has a great on-screen prescence!
Have to cut this a little short, I have to go for my singing lesson now...bleh...^^
