In Dawn of the Dead (the original, not that remake) he played Peter Washington, the streetwise SWAT team member who was one of the only survivors of the groups stay at the mall.
In The Devil's Rejects he played the pimp (and I mean that literally) Charlie Altamont.
In the less than stellar Rob Zombie remake of Halloween, he played the ill fated Big Joe Grizzly.
Finally he played Black Santa in Black Santa's Revenge.
This man just exudes bad ass. I don't want to hear the comments, "Samuel L Jackson is the baddest MFer in the known world!" because Ken Foree is the bad ass that people like Sam Jackson want to be.
He has taken on the undead, Leatherface and Michael Meyers. He was Black Freakin' Santa. He is Ken Foree.
That is why I love him.*
*not in that way you sicko
