William Zabka (sometimes credited as Billy Zabka) IS Greg Larsen (Python I)/Greg Larson (Python II)!!
Zabka may best be remembered as the black Gi wearing, on-the-beach bullying, bum leg kicking Johnny Lawrence in Karate Kid and Karate Kid Part Deux, but I think his work in these CGI snake epics is as good as anything he’s ever done.
What??? {you exclaim} Better than his quiet, noble resolve as Security Guard John in Falcon Down? More moving than his tour de force playing Joe (Rover driver) in Epoch? OK, you may have a point with that last one.
The thing I found most fascinating when reviewing Mr. Zabka’s career in that font of all tasty video trivia, IMDB.com, is his penchant for appearing in films with uncertain titles. For instance:
Python 2 aka Python II aka Pythons 2
Dark Descent, aka Descent Into Darkness
Mindstorm, aka Project: Human Weapon
The Power Within, aka Power Man
and, the big winner
Interceptors, aka Interceptor Force, aka The Last Line of Defense
Yep. The Internet. Adding value to our lives by loading up our brains with this kind of valuable information. Life’s good.
You are now and will forever remain My Hero!
