House", both "Fright Night" films,

"The Strangler", and "The Evil" (as Satan
himself!)

Mostly
a dialogue director/dialogue coach throughout his career,
Norman Stuart (Arnold) has acted in the Battlestar Galactica
series and
portrayed one of the Vulcan masters in Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Four
actors from ARNOLD, Elsa, Patric, Ben, and Shani Wallis, all
costarred
in director Georg Fenady's "Terror in the Wax Museum"
Arnold
is already a corpse when the film begins, but the only time
the viewer sees him moving is during Karen's nightmare scene
...and watch closely in a few scenes. Norman Stuart can be seen breathing!
