Rad Skelton



Like an acne-scarred skull, his fizzog
Graces hackneyed and dull films, a slog
But Knaggs kills it when shootin'
Them thrillers by Lewton
He attacks without lull, we're agog.

David Cairns

Skelton Knaggs as Finn, the mute sailor in The Ghost Ship (Mark Robson; 1943), produced by Val Lewton, master of mood and menace.
