The Crow (1994)
Even after Brandon Lee was tragically killed while filming The Crow, its success remains one of the summer blockbusters of 1994. This high-concept thriller blends movie noir with action flick elements while maintaining a gothic aesthetic which sets it apart from similar B-grade offerings like Terminator.

Additionally he voiced several video game characters and appeared in horror-related documentaries.
Final Destination (1999)
Final Destination seems like an overly cheesed up slasher movie with little depth or exploration, making for an uninspiring and forgettable viewing experience despite all its cliches; nonetheless, this installment in the franchise stands above others in terms of overall quality.
Devon Sawa makes this movie work as Alex, a high school student who foresees an impending plane explosion and attempts to convince his classmates to evacuate before it crashes – only for Death still take their lives in this disaster nonetheless.

Though not an original film, The Big Chill offers some impressive performances by its actors: Nicolas Cage and Sean Connery shine especially, with Sean taking great advantage of his Bond personal while Todd gives off plenty of charisma – he would later continue working in genre fare such as Wishmaster and Final Destination films.
Hatchet (2006)
Hatchet is an uproariously gory update of backwoods swamp-based horror, employing extreme violence to both provoke giggles and gross-out reactions. Director Adam Green follows the formula established in films like Friday the 13th series by stranding a group of individuals in monster country before picking off one by one until all have fallen to its threat.
Kane Hodder makes an entertaining cameo as Jason Voorhees in this film, while Todd shows his fondness for genre with his campy acting.

Additionally, he provided voice acting services for video games and other popular media.
The Man from Earth (2010)

Richard Schenkman directed Richard Bixby’s The Man from Earth, written by Jerome Bixby who died before its production. Rather than featuring large scale special effects or sets typical of modern science fiction movies, The Man from Earth depicts an intimate conceptual story between friends discussing history and ideas.
The Flash (2015)
The CW’s fast-paced superhero show The Flash features an abundance of action. Between time traveling and wormholes, Barry’s super speed, and Gorilla Grodd being so intelligent it can get pretty intense at times!

Wishmaster (1998)
Todd does a solid job bringing the concept of a genie into horror film through this novel idea. Though not an amazing film, if you can bear with its gore and make-up effects (plus some unexpected humor likely produced by drunken frat boys), it can still be entertaining.
Horror fans should definitely watch it! There’s no pretense of being clever or advanced here; rather it offers lots of energy and some memorable kill scenes as well as cameo appearances by horror icons Kane Hodder and Robert Englund – making this film worth your while for sure!
