10 Actors You Totally Forgot Starred In Horror Movies
7. Jon Stewart - The Faculty
In Robert Rodriguez's The Faculty, a group of teenagers notice peculiar things going in their school. Upon investigation, the students learn the teachers are being taken over by hostile aliens.
The Faculty stands out as one of those films that starred a ton of pre-fame celebrities including Famke Jansen, Elijah Wood, Josh Hartnett, Salma Hayek, and Danny Masterson. It even starred hip-hop legend and The Voice judge, Usher, before he was a Grammy award-winning singer.
However, one celebrity that many viewers forget appeared alongside this star-studded cast was Jon Stewart. The comedian and The Daily Show host plays a science teacher called Edward Furlong (which is weirdly the name of the actor who played John Connor in Terminator 2. But I digress.) When students discover a tiny alien, they mistake it for a new terrestrial species and send it to Professor Furlong for study, causing him to be infected by it.
Even though this film has a lot of crazy visuals, watching Jon Stewart's dismembered fingers chasing students while a syringe is stuck in his eye has got to be the weirdest.
