Ricardo Montalban Recalls Khan

Posted by chrisd on from the herve-villechaize-was-in-a-bond-movie dept.

phyy-nx writes "Scifi.com, in referring to the directors cut of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Kahn (coming out on DVD Aug 6), has quoted clips from an interview with Ricardo Montalban. Montalban portrayed the vengeful Kahn in one of the best perfomances in one of the best of the (almost ten) Star Trek films. He mentions how difficult it was to portray Khan after six years of Mr. Roarke of Fantasy Island and how he overcame that mold to masterfully portray his new character's controlled insanity." Or, as Kirk would say: Khaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

    The producers had to recover the chair on the bridge of the Klingon Warbird in Corinthian Leather before he would sit in it.

    Slashdot must have quite a backlog of article submissions.

    I mean, one article about a 1961 wristwatch, now an article about a 1982 movie.

    I just submitted an article about this awsome new kind of game called Castle Wolfenstein 3D, it's like the old Castle Wolfenstein game on the Apple IIe , but from the FIRST PERSON PERSPECTIVE. It's really damn cool, but it doesn't work with my 8-bit Adlib Soundcard.
