Many of you will remember this 2'11" actor from 1985's Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome in which Angelo played the Master to Blaster, a hulking figure with the mind of a small child. Master cares for Blaster and is his only friend, even defending him at the end of the movie's climactic fight.



Little do many know Angelo played this exact same role of "midget befriends big idiot" in 1972's Brain of Blood, most famous for it's use as the Cinematic Titanic pilot, The Oozing Skull. In Brain of Blood, Angelo's character Dorro is a lab assistant to a mad doctor who has developed a technique to transplant brains. When the body intended for an aging ruler is found insufficient, Dorro's friend Gor, the large man with the mind of a child, is used instead. Dorro is the only one to object to this treatment of his friend.



Now you know the rest of the story.
I can’t seem to face up to the facts.
I’m tense and nervous and I... can’t relax.
I can’t sleep, cause my bed’s on fire.
Don’t touch me I’m a real live wire.

Are you making this up? If you are, it's very good.

I wrote it myself, but no, those films and that midget actor existed.

Are you implying I am a scientist who torments a man named Sam who is "leaping" into people's lives correcting things that go wrong?

Or are you saying I'm evil like Frank Booth and would cut off a Roy Orbison record?
