Strange connections
I found it odd to learn that Billie Mae Richards, the original voice of Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer in the now beloved Christmas special, was also one of the actresses who appeard in Jailbait Babysitter. Jailbait Babysitter is also John Goodman's first movie. Now I want to see this on DVD.
Can anybody else think of any strange/disturbing connections like this with other actors/actresses? I am sure there must be several.

It's the contrast of the two movies.

Paul Soles, the voice of Herbie the misfit elf wannabe-dentist from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer had a role in The Score (2001) (with De Niro and Norton).

Just this year, Daveigh Chase was the loveable voice of Lilo in Lilo & Stitch, but she also scared the **** out of me in The Ring.
Other 'strange connections' come from me watching 2 or more completely different movies and finding a common actor among them. For example, in the past month I've watched Glen Garry Glenross, 13 Conversations About One Thing and Slums of Beverly Hills all containing Alan Arkin. It's not strange that he's these movies, but a bit strange that I watched them so close together when I never gave Alan Arkin much thought before (I now hold him in pretty high regard). Also, after I watched Slums... I watched Walking and Talking- both feature Kevin Corrigan ("Eddie" from Grounded For Life). Whoa, weird- I never planned on having a Kevin Corrigan marathon.

Similar to Tscott with Alan Arkin, one weekend over the summer, I watched a variety of films from a variety of decades...and all of them managed to have Leo G. Carroll in them. It's not like I was just watching Hitchcock films either. I watched Wuthering Heights, Spellbound, Rebecca, and The Parent Trap...and everywhere I looked, he was there. Never even heard of the guy before, but in viewing Hitchcock films since, I've always noticed him, and I thought wow...weird, wild, wacky stuff.
