    • Quotes
      [on if he considers himself a Method actor] Oh, sure. I mean, everyone is a Method actor. Everybody has their own method. Some people play cards all the time. Some people, you know, hang out at the crafts service table. My method is to immerse myself in the character as much as possible ... 24/7. If I can.
    • Trademark
        Best known as the screaming frat-bully Douglas Neidermeyer in Animal House which he later parodyed for the Twister Sister videos "We're Not Gonna Take It" and "I Wanna Rock"
